Borrowed Crime

Bookmobile Cat Mystery Series, Book 3

Librarian Minnie Hamilton spreads the joy of reading throughout Chilson, Michigan, with her bookmobile, but she doesn't ride alone. Her rescue cat, Eddie, and a group of volunteers are always on board to deliver cheer - until one of her helpers gets checked out for good....

When Minnie loses a grant that was supposed to keep the bookmobile running, she's worried her pet project could come to its final page. But she's determined to keep her patrons - and Eddie's fans - happy and well-read. She just needs her boss, Stephen to see things her way, and make sure he doesn't see Eddie. The library director doesn't exactly know about the bookmobile's furry co-pilot.

But when a volunteer dies on the bookmobile's route, Minnie finds her traveling library in an even more precarious position. Although the death was originally ruled a hunting accident, a growing stack of clues is pointing towards murder. It's up to Minnie and Eddie to find the killer, and fast - before the best chapter of her life comes to a messy close....

An enjoyable listen - typical cozy mystery

An enjoyable read/listen.
I took away a star because the constant reference to a "single" cat hair was tedious. (Also, there is no way you can be a cat owner and get out of the house with only a single cat hair)
I have now read the first 3 in the series. I will revisit the bookmobile at a later date.
Listened to the audio version at 1.5 speed and it was enjoyable. I find the normal speed is just way too slow on audiobooks.

Love

the humor in this series. And Eddy, of course. word word word word word word

Book 3

My favorite cozy mystery series.

Borrowed Crime is the third book in the "A Bookmobile Cat Mystery"

This one made me anxious. A man gets killed volunteering on the bookmobile and he may not have been the intended target. Now Minnie future at the library and on the bookmobile are at jeopardy.

I adore Minnie. I like how she treats people. I strive to be more like Minnie. And Eddie to the rescue! Eddie makes me love on my cat more. He is still a wonderful duo with Minnie.

Intriguing read

I enjoy the clues that Eddie the cat points out and Minnie’s continual missing of those clues. Lots of red herrings until the mystery is solved in this latest in a great cozy series.

Enjoying this series immensely. Love the human traits Eddie has, although, as an owner of 13 cats -they do have human tendencies if you pay attention. Kudos Laurie Cass
