Okay, when Rob agrees with your collar style choice and says "Jesus, yeah" and also when he looks at you through the magnifying glass and goes "Three times the beauty" - this man LOVES you and it's always so wonderful to witness 😭
Let’s be real, in this day and age, inheritance is practically the only way to own property. Finding a dead body might be worth it 😂 This video format was delightful, and I am always here for Rob cameos!
The titles of the books in the series are so funny to me, ‘Offed in the Orchids’ and ‘Toes up in the tulips’ are two of my faves 😂 Ms Mayers dedication to alliteration is impressive considering the amount of releases! Tbh this book sounded pretty bad but we got a great video out of it so 😅
Stopp this was soooo much fun I didn’t want the video to end!! Would absolutely adore if you gave Cain's Jawbone a Book by Edward Powys Mathers a shot. That would be sooo cool. It’s the mystery where pages are in wrong order and you have to put them correctly. Can even do it as fun activity with your husband!!
Robs face, just the vibes. He wants to know everything you’re saying. I love the support. I rarely have support for my reading. It’s an isolating experience for me. So I love your channel. It helps me discover books (even music and art) that I may be interested in but don’t have friends that share the same interests. And helps me find books I may not even know about! 3xs the beauty ☕️☕️
this is so strange, i picked up this audiobook on Scribd and DNFed it almost immediately so i'm SO glad you talked about the actual plot and writing and validating me giving up
This is SUCH a fun idea! Do you think you will do it with another book too? Maybe a popular new mystery release? Definitely here for reading the sequel though too!
You should try this again with the shin honkaku genre! Tokyo Zodiac Murders/Murder in the Crooked House are both explicitly designed with this kind of reading in mind (right with the denouement being labeled so you can wait to read it).
I absolutely adore this style of video from you! I hope you had just as much fun filiming this as I did watching. It would be really fun if you read the next book in the series and did something similar to what you did here.
This was so fun!!! Even if you don't continue with this particular series, this style of video was fun. I loved hearing you work through the mystery. :)
Just started the video, but already it's a great concept! ETA: ok so interesting to be able to figure out she actually might be American just because we don't wear shoes inside. Such a small yet telling detail 🤭
Love this video! So fun! I went to Kelowna for the first time earlier this year and Mosaic's seemed like such a good bookstore! I was sad I had no room in my bag to buy anything.
I had to pause to go read the book, to see if I could figure it out - I agree as a reader you couldn’t solve it before Doreen did, and I also thought that the epilogue was weird - I still enjoyed the book, though. Quick and cozy read, and the amateur sleuth was not as intent on keeping stuff from the authorities as they are in some cozy mysteries, which I appreciated!
I've wanted you to solve a mystery book for so long and this was so worth the wait! And I always love getting to see more of Kelowna. It seems like such an idyllic place tbh. Would definitely love more of these, but perhaps not from this book series, which seems lackluster haha.
This is one of my favourite videos you’ve ever posted!! I love the vlogging and showing your town and life while you read. I live in New Brunswick and have always wanted to go to BC 😂
I would like to see you do a video for the second book. Find out what happens, if you get answers to some of the unanswered questions from this book & if the writing is better.
I really enjoyed this 😆 I have never heard of this book and have no intention of reading it, but hearing the whole thing from your point of view, trying to solve the mystery and your knowledge of the location was so interesting
I love all of your content, but this!!! This was just next level fun and entertainment. Would definitely watch another one if you decide to read the sequel.
This was awesome!! Have you done a cozy mystery video? I’m on this cozy mystery kick right now haha! What are some of your favorites? I’m also really into paranormal cozies
this was fun! i really enjoyed how you talked out your ideas about the murder - very entertaining! would love to follow more videos where you try and solve things before the characters
I would love to see your reviews of more of this series, especially Killer in the kiwis, which was IMO less of a cosy mystery and more of a how to build a deck!!!! Also wish that the author would give Doreen a genuine female friend so she could be a little more believable.
I've read this book! The epilogue is basically the first chapter of the next book. I agree with your rating and I don't recommend continuing with the series. But I love this video idea! Hope you try it with another book!
The shoes in the house and clocking the author might not be Canadian amused me. I had that recently when a book set in the US had a salty vs sweet popcorn debate between characters. Author was British haha. Butter popcorn supremacy.
This was amazing! I would love more videos like this. I know you can’t just visit other places. But I mean the mystery solving part. It was interesting to hear your theories.
This was such a fun video!!! Would definitely love to see more videos like this, maybe with other mystery series since you didn't end up loving this one? Either way this was so entertaining and such a great idea.
Loved this! Love the concept! So much fun! I am just bummed the book wasn't better for you .. or for the project. I would definitely love to see more like this .. and I don't know, I would think you could adapt to books set in other locations but using your downtown, your coffee shop, your hiking trail (or whatever lol).
"She's living in a retirement home just down there."
"Can we just go ask her??"
"Hmmm!"
😂😂😂
Okay, when Rob agrees with your collar style choice and says "Jesus, yeah" and also when he looks at you through the magnifying glass and goes "Three times the beauty" - this man LOVES you and it's always so wonderful to witness 😭
This was great! More of these. What if she did this with a romance book and went on dates with Rob around the city
Omg this idea is adorable
So FUN!!!
Omg stop , that’s an adorable idea
Omg brilliant!!!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I love that you were also investigating the real mystery of where the author is from.
I absolutely adored the clip of your explaining the premise of the book to Rob. I could watch hours of that 😂
If you wanted to do this with all 20+ books in this series, I don’t think any of us would argue
20:42 why did I hear “Nan is really into bedding” and I thought, oh ok whatever makes you happy Nan 🤣
'Three times the beauty'. I love Rob's love for you 😍 and I love his support in your activities 🥰
Also, another outstanding and entertaining video. Thank you xx
You should do this more often! It was fun seeing your entire process especially since you do predict few books.
The drive around town was great too!
Honey, wake up. My comfort youtuber just posted
Just seeing a Kayla thumbnail is a dopamine hit
And I love that a lot of her videos are long, perfect company while eating or when emotionally drained ❤
Let’s be real, in this day and age, inheritance is practically the only way to own property. Finding a dead body might be worth it 😂
This video format was delightful, and I am always here for Rob cameos!

"Can we just go ask her?" 😂 This was so fun! Loved hearing your thought process. :)
This is so fun and cute, you’re fully immersing yourself and I love it
Stopp this was soooo much fun I didn’t want the video to end!! Would absolutely adore if you gave Cain's Jawbone a Book by Edward Powys Mathers a shot. That would be sooo cool. It’s the mystery where pages are in wrong order and you have to put them correctly. Can even do it as fun activity with your husband!!
If anyone could solve this, Kayla could.
Happy birthday to meeee, this is the best present to cosy down and watch 🥰
Happy birthday
happy birthday gavin, I hope you're having an utterly fabulous day!
Happy Birthday Bestie!!!! 💕🎉🌸🎂
Happiest of birthdays Gavin! 🎉

3xs the beauty ☕️☕️
You and Rob in the car is exactly how I am with my bf when I read thrillers.
Yes, please read the second book! This has been one of my favorite videos you have made. I loved it!
I love how you made it like an actual investigation you were doing. Kayla I love your videos.
this is so strange, i picked up this audiobook on Scribd and DNFed it almost immediately so i'm SO glad you talked about the actual plot and writing and validating me giving up
I think this is one of your best videos, so entertaining and I loved the moments with Rob.
this is literally SO MUCH fun, petition for you to always tell us what exactly happens in the book hahaha
This is SUCH a fun idea!
Do you think you will do it with another book too? Maybe a popular new mystery release? Definitely here for reading the sequel though too!
Okay I need more videos where you try to solve the mysteries you read cause this is hilarious!
Rob over here supporting the right hockey team
I’m waiting for “Can you tell it’s a cul-de-sac?” merch! 🤣
You should try this again with the shin honkaku genre! Tokyo Zodiac Murders/Murder in the Crooked House are both explicitly designed with this kind of reading in mind (right with the denouement being labeled so you can wait to read it).
The book doesn't sound great but this was so much fun to watch!! I love the behind the scenes clip at the end 😂
🔍 “three times the beauty”🔎💙
That was a great video concept and a super fun time!! Definitely would love to see more videos like this if you find books conducive to that!
I absolutely adore this style of video from you! I hope you had just as much fun filiming this as I did watching. It would be really fun if you read the next book in the series and did something similar to what you did here.
Yes! she should do the entire series in videos like this!!
I loved everything about this video! The end where yall are trying to film a cul de sac is comedy gold 😂
This was so fun!!!
Even if you don't continue with this particular series, this style of video was fun. I loved hearing you work through the mystery. :)
"All my books are available on every vendor" and she's not including Indigo... Highly suspicious!
Just started the video, but already it's a great concept!
ETA: ok so interesting to be able to figure out she actually might be American just because we don't wear shoes inside. Such a small yet telling detail 🤭
Liking and commenting now. Will watch it once I can read the book at the same time!!
Love this video! So fun! I went to Kelowna for the first time earlier this year and Mosaic's seemed like such a good bookstore! I was sad I had no room in my bag to buy anything.
I would love to see another one of these!
I had to pause to go read the book, to see if I could figure it out - I agree as a reader you couldn’t solve it before Doreen did, and I also thought that the epilogue was weird - I still enjoyed the book, though. Quick and cozy read, and the amateur sleuth was not as intent on keeping stuff from the authorities as they are in some cozy mysteries, which I appreciated!
This is one of my favorite videos you’ve ever done 🤩
This video was so fun!! Please do it again! ❤️❤️
This is so great I feel like I have to read the book along with the video aaa the dilemma!
I enjoyed every second of this, what a fantastic idea!
This whole view is AMAZING! Such hilarity. You have got to make this a recurring series on your channel.
THIS VIDEO IS everything!!!!!!
pls do it again
The ending. 😂 I love you guys.
I've wanted you to solve a mystery book for so long and this was so worth the wait! And I always love getting to see more of Kelowna. It seems like such an idyllic place tbh. Would definitely love more of these, but perhaps not from this book series, which seems lackluster haha.
This was super fun! I live in Penticton, I wonder if there have been any cozy mysteries written based here 🧐
This is one of my favourite videos you’ve ever posted!! I love the vlogging and showing your town and life while you read. I live in New Brunswick and have always wanted to go to BC 😂
This was so cool!! Please do more of these 😍
The last 2 minutes were pure comedy gold 😂
I would like to see you do a video for the second book. Find out what happens, if you get answers to some of the unanswered questions from this book & if the writing is better.
This was so stinkin' cute! Loved the concept!
Now im invested! Torn if i should finish the video or stop and drop by the bookstore!
JUST WHAT I NEEDED!!!!!! 😍 love the thumbnail too 🌺
You did so well with this!
I really enjoyed this 😆 I have never heard of this book and have no intention of reading it, but hearing the whole thing from your point of view, trying to solve the mystery and your knowledge of the location was so interesting
This video is the greatest thing EVER!!!
I love all of your content, but this!!! This was just next level fun and entertainment. Would definitely watch another one if you decide to read the sequel.
This was awesome!! Have you done a cozy mystery video? I’m on this cozy mystery kick right now haha! What are some of your favorites? I’m also really into paranormal cozies
I think that this concept is amazing and I'd love to see you try another one - but maybe a different series!
kayla i am begging for a part 2
You were born for this. You’re an internet sleuth. If I have a mystery, you’re my first call
I love this video! You're best one yet!
this was fun! i really enjoyed how you talked out your ideas about the murder - very entertaining! would love to follow more videos where you try and solve things before the characters
I would love to see your reviews of more of this series, especially Killer in the kiwis, which was IMO less of a cosy mystery and more of a how to build a deck!!!! Also wish that the author would give Doreen a genuine female friend so she could be a little more believable.
Part 2? Fun concept I'd like to see again sometime :) Like book adventuring!
I've read this book! The epilogue is basically the first chapter of the next book. I agree with your rating and I don't recommend continuing with the series. But I love this video idea! Hope you try it with another book!
So fun that you've read it!! 🙌🏻 How far into the series have you gone?
@@BooksandLala I read 6 of them! They're a lot like the first one
There are Goodwill's in Ontario. Was my fav place to shop. Even a goodwill bookstore .
This was super fun. Loved it!
This literally gave me life! More mysteries in the future please!! ❤
Please do more of these ! This was amazing, thank you so much 😊
This looks like so much fun. But now I have to decide if I want to watch this video or get/read this book first. hmmm.....
"Three times the beauty." ROB 🥹 This was so fun to watch! Enjoyed the side mystery about the author as well haha
I SOBBED AT THAT PART I LOVE THEM SO MUCH
Always love when videos like these remind me of visiting my family from BC. I'm in the states but my Mom is originally from Grand Forks. 🇨🇦
This video was so fun! I really enjoyed your sleuthing. It would be fun to watch you investigating along other detectives in other mysteries.
This was amazing. Please do another 😂
This was a really fun video! I would love to see more - Great way of showing us around BC - Love your reactions etc - Love Ya, Girl!
This was fun to watch!!
This is such a fun video idea! I am loving it
This was fun! I loved the rob ending too 😂
You always have the most fun video ideas!!! I hope to see more in the future ☺️☺️
The shoes in the house and clocking the author might not be Canadian amused me. I had that recently when a book set in the US had a salty vs sweet popcorn debate between characters. Author was British haha. Butter popcorn supremacy.
This was amazing! I would love more videos like this. I know you can’t just visit other places. But I mean the mystery solving part. It was interesting to hear your theories.
Okay, I hadn’t seen the entire video when I wrote that. The next book in Summer time is a good idea!
Only Kayla could be THIS innovative and imaginative.
This was such a fun video!!! Would definitely love to see more videos like this, maybe with other mystery series since you didn't end up loving this one? Either way this was so entertaining and such a great idea.
Rob "Can't we just go ask her?" 😅
very creative idea, loved it! More please!
So fun! Would love to see a video of the next in the series!
Loved this! Love the concept! So much fun! I am just bummed the book wasn't better for you .. or for the project. I would definitely love to see more like this .. and I don't know, I would think you could adapt to books set in other locations but using your downtown, your coffee shop, your hiking trail (or whatever lol).
I really loved this video idea!! Would like to see more of these 😁
I love this video! How fun!!!!
This was such a fun video idea!! I loved it!!
This was so fun!!💕💕
I never normally post but, Kayla this was amazing!! Such a fun video and so well executed!!! Thank you for the great content!! 😊
This was such a cool video! i loved seeing your thought process and traveling around town. So fun!
I loved this! Very unique and intriguing video concept!
❤❤❤❤ this type of video! I always enjoy watching your videos!
this was honestly riveting and lol your Instagram sleuthing was impressive. Thanks for a fun 38 minutes! 🤙
