I love Eddie the Bookmobile Cat, and enjoy the stories which circle around Library drama and mysteries. [a: Laurie Cass|7025913|Laurie Cass|https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/nophoto/user/u_50x66-632230dc9882b4352d753eedf9396530.png] is a kindred spirit who loves serving patrons and bringing books to patrons in outlying areas. [b: Cat With a Clue|32592762|Cat with a Clue|Laurie Cass|https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/nophoto/book/50x75-a91bf249278a81aabab721ef782c4a74.png|53171166] is #5 in The Bookmobile Cat Series.

For those who have never worked in a library, there are dynamics at work in the main plot and sub-plots that make my cardigan warm, and cat hair on my skirt stand up with pride. The characters and patrons may be fictional, but are based on true characters.

Series like The Bookmobile Cat must end sometime, and I demand that they do not.

I would prefer Eddie live for eight more lives and Minnie Hamilton continue stumbling on crime scenes and keep us searching for clues. It is about time the law enforcement of Chilson, Michigan understands the deductive abilities of a MLIS librarian.

Thank you. ( )

In this fifth book featuring bookmobile librarian and cat Eddie, Minnie serves as acting director while the library board seeks a replacement for her former boss Stephen. The staff members want her to apply, especially when they see some of the candidates. Eddie already expressed his thoughts on one candidate. She comes in one day where she discovers a dead body in the friends' book sale room. Although the room was tossed, nothing appears to be taken. The bookmobile is hit as is another place with a collection of books. Minnie is good at putting two and two together and realizes the common denominator is books. She has a theory, but she keeps law enforcement in the loop. This series has become one of my favorite cozy series. While the mystery itself is not that difficult to decipher, the setting and characters keep me interested. The sleuth does not take non-calculated risks as so many cozy sleuths do. ( )

Maybe because I read three books in this series, I guessed as soon as the character's name and profession was mentioned in the book. It might be better to not binge read these mystery series.
Once I'd learned that the victim had lawyer, I figured this might have something to do with the estate. Great thing is that although less happened in the library, except for the murder, the case itself was a hunt for a rare book.



Looking forward to the next book in the series due out in August 2017 ( )

I absolutely love the Bookmobile Cat Mystery series. :) Minnie Hamilton, librarian extraordinaire, and her kitty sidekick, Eddie make me smile. Minnie is independent, intelligent, a bit feisty, but still sweet. The side characters are interesting and more than a little small-town quirky. It makes for a funny and entertaining cozy mystery series.

Cat With a Clue is the fifth book in the series. It isn't necessary to read them in order. A reader could jump in with this book and still enjoy the story. To fully know the background of all the characters, it's best to start at the beginning of the series but Cat With a Clue doesn't really depend on any monumental occurrences in previous books for its plot.

The basics: Minnie comes into work one morning to shelve books. While she's puttering around inside the library, she nearly trips over a dead body. The woman is lying on the floor with a knife sticking out of her chest. Andrea Vennard had recently come to town to attend the funeral of her great aunt. But how did she get into the library before it opened? And who killed her? Before the police really even get started on their investigation into the murder, a baffling string of break-ins begin around town. Even the bookmobile is broken into. The common denominator is books. Minnie wonders if the murder and the break-ins are related somehow, but isn't sure what the murderer might be looking for. Can she and Eddie solve the case before someone else gets hurt or killed?

Since this is my favorite cozy series, I knew I was going to enjoy this book before I even read the first page. :) The mystery was engaging and there were plenty of suspects and surprises. I always enjoy the side plot of Minnie's aunt matchmaking for her summer boarders, and her aunt's lovelife with neighbor, Otto. All in all, this is another fun addition to the series!

The next book in the series, Wrong Side of the Paw, will be coming out in late July! :) I can't wait!! ( )

Minnie literally stumbles across a dead body in the library. Though saddened by the murder, she doesn’t get involved in tracking down clues until the crimes get personal. Someone breaks into the bookmobile, the library, and other businesses, and Minnie is on the case. The books in this series never disappoint, they just keep getting better. The mystery in this one is a good one, making this story especially interesting. ( )
