The Great Catsby is a Whales and Tails Cozy Mystery by Kathi Daley. This is Book 8 in this series.  Cait, the main character in this series is distressed about the man her mother is supposed to marry.  She and her siblings sense that all is not right with the guy and feel for her mother's heart as well as her money!  And Ebenezer the cat we have previously met returns to Cait.  Cats on the island where this book takes place appear and help Cait solves some murders.  This time a girl is murdered and Alex is put in jail.  Alex is a young man that Cait has helped before.  He has recently returned to the island and is living the wild party life.  Cait and her friends work hard to find the real killer.  This book kept me in suspense for a long time.  The characters seem even more developed in this book.  At least I have become very fond of them.. I did not figure  out the plot til almost the end.  A wonderful summer read!  I would suggest reading this series in order..

What a fun mystery. There seems to be something for everyone. It has secret codes, mathematical puzzles (pentominoes), a dash of art history and good characters. There is even a coded message/puzzle in the Bret Helquist illustrations. Codes are always interesting to kids. I think this book will be very popular with middle grade readers.  I can see Calder and Petra collaborating on future mysteries. Kids who enjoyed The Mysterious Matter of I. M. Fine by Diane Stanley, will be happy to have a new and interesting mystery to read.

Let me start with a tip.  I have had terrible sinus infection for a week. The only thing that has made feel any better is reading this book, Farewell to Felines .

Farewell to Felines is the 15th book in the Whales and Tales series by Kathi Daley.  Cait and her friend Tansy are walking to an area of Madrona Island that is very magical called the Hollow that serves as the home for many magical cats.  Tansy who seems to have have many magical powers is feeling bad. The find that the cats are gone!  All except a cat named Apollo.

Cait instantly fears when she sees Apollo is that there has been a murder on Madora Island.  Follow the cat to get the murder.

Cait is also trying to find why the cats have left the Hollow.  After finding a lady has been murdered, she gathers her family inventive team together.  Good read.  And lots of happy news about her family!  Please read enjoy!

I love the Sneaky Pie Brown mysteries written by Rita Brown.  The tiger cat, Mrs. Murphy, the Corgi, T. Tucker and the gray cat Pewter, assist their "mom" in solving murders.  The stories are compelling, I usually can't guess "who done it" until its revealed at the end.  Just really enjoy the series.

The Cat Of Christmas Present ( Whales and Tails Cozy Mystery Book 10 )
By: Kathi Daley

The Cat of Christmas Present is book ten in Whales and Tails Cozy Mystery series. Kathi Daleys story and characters both are well written and well developed. She had me hooked right at the start . I really enjoyed these cozy mystery stories about Cait , her family , and her friends. They all do not hesitate to jump right in and help solve the mystery. The story has a great start and will keep you guessing till the end. Magical cat, Clarence, shows up and leads Cait to a body on the beach . The man is alive , but cannot tell her who he is or where he is from. Is he a criminal or is he someone they can trust? Christmas is coming and Cait and her team has a mystery to solve . Don't forget to check the good recipes out in the back off the book , there is some you might cam use for your holidays.

We adore cats and the cover of this children's book called out to us.  My son and I read this one evening recently and really enjoyed the story, its characters and the whole premise of the series. This is #2 in a series about pets who vow to protect their owners and turn detective when there is any sort of perceived threat.  In this story, Frankie (the cat) and Jasper (the pig) search a drive-in theater for a suspected female ghost.  Another reviewer compared this to Scooby-Doo and I would agree.  Thoroughly enjoyable fun mystery that you can read with your kids or that they are sure to enjoy on their own

Gemma Halliday has written a wonderful series with Maggie. I have enjoyed them very much and I was not disappointed in book #8.
I was able to laugh at the antics of the first birthday planning, wonder who and what was going on with the murder Maggie comes across again and Mr. Mom. The book kept me guessing and that is perfect for a mystery. I look forward to reading more of Gemma Halliday.

This is the 6th in the magical cat mysteries. This was a pretty good story and mystery, the cats don't really add much to the store. This was better than book 7 which I just read. Kathleen is trying to raise money for the reading buddy program at the library and is organizing a benefit. One of the guests drops dead and she has to figure out who did it and why.

Fun Victorian romantic mystery. Glad to see Willow, a by the rules gal teamed up with the break the rules inspector she has been writing to in the first two books of the series. Can not wait to read the fourth book in the series

Lauren Carr writes a very good mystery and I love the Mac Faraday Mysteries. Being a dog lover and owner of 2 Boxers I can always appreciate his rage at Gnarly and the way Gnarly gets what he wants. Readers who like a bit of humor with their mysteries will enjoy this series.

This book contains books #4 The Chocolate Puppy Puzzle, and #5 The Chocolate Mousetrap, in the Chocoholic Mystery series.  This is a very enjoyable series, and an easy read. I have read them all twice and now I am trying to collect the entire series. This book was a very reasonable way for me to get 2 of the books in the series.  I look forward to the next new book in the series.
