Every Month, I gather up my books that have been sitting around and give them away, usually with a theme. This month, the spotlight is DOG DAYS OF SUMMER!
Here are the first line from the blurb on Amazon. Please don’t post the titles in comments! Oh yeah, if there are characters involved, they are xxx’d out.
These books are all by the same author.
Book # 1
XXXXX is a man still mourning the loss of his beloved girlfriend, XXXXX, who left him suddenly without a word. He’s also the owner of a plump, poetry-loving Lab, XXXXXXX.
Book # 2
A CANINE CRUISE. A STORM OF MURDER. A LABRADOR NAMED XXXXXXX: OVERWEIGHT, OVERLY INTELLIGENT—AND OVERBOARD…
Book # 3
He reads Proust. Surfs the net. Is the soul of diplomacy.
And when it comes to solving crime,
XXXXXXX is the dog for the job.

August 7, 2013 at 11:55 amHmm, these are harder than first thought. And as far as I can tell, one is not part of a series we both like, unless I am way off! Which I could be, it’s early here! Have a great day!

August 9, 2013 at 11:38 amThis was fun. I love book hunts. The only problem is while searching, I come across so many books to add to my TBR. lol. I have a lab, my KC, and a shih tzu, my Zoey. I know the books are really fun ones because dogs are just goofy, (mine anyway – could be goofy parenting I guess), loving and fun. I love my goofs.
Thanks for the giveaway!

August 18, 2013 at 3:50 amOur dogs aren’t nearly that cultured. They like to chase each other and sleep all day. Not a bad way to spend their days. However, they can’t read and that is their biggest loss of all.

August 31, 2013 at 9:40 pmI don’t know what I love more, dogs or a good mystery book. Probably dogs but a good mystery is a very close second.
