    Rob and Kayla will always be my number one ship. Absolutely iconic couple. Perfect levels of sass from both sides. Doreen and Mack could never.

    "What do you mean she ran out of ideas after 26 books?" Lmao 😆 I'm gonna miss Doreen and her not-a-real-job job. I hope you find another series that you can do this with.

    I cracked up when you mentioned that other characters wanted Doreen and Mack to get together before those people died. With the number of bodies Doreen found over such a short period of time, the chances of everyone in the city expiring before the couple gets together seem really high. 😅

    The amount of silliness Rob pulls out of you is the epitome of an Aries and a Gemini relationship. I love that for you. And for him. Ugh, so pure. So cute. So fking funny.

    I read a fair amount of "cosy cat mysteries," and the appeal is usually the heroine having a fun job in a scenic location. Apple cider shop, maple syrup farm, mountaintop lodge, etc. It's more about the vibes than the mystery. These books sound so boring without even that basic appeal of a cosy mystery! The videos are super entertaining though! I'm going to miss them, if not boring Doreen (Boreen? lol)

    Thank you for your commentary on homelessness. As someone who oversees public investments and programs to prevent and end homelessness (in a large city in the US), I am always impressed by people who humanize people experiencing homelessness….and the complexity of addressing this issue, which really is just the manifestation of so many system failures on impoverished people over time. I hoped Canada did better for the vulnerable, but maybe not?!

    Hey, I’m wondering if you’ve ever read any of Louise Penny’s Inspector Gamache series? She’s Canadian and most of the books are set in Quebec. They are the best comfort reads for me and the mysteries are solid. The books are murder mysteries but REALLY they are about friendship and gratitude and art and love and poetry and delicious food and empathy and they are just SO GOOD. Since you are wrapped in this series, you should try them.

Wild haha! Also I'm so mad the parrot did not help solve these murders, what a terrible missed opportunity!!

    I was just thinking about this series because I tried reading a romance set in Vancouver where everything was American. The terms were American (college, dorms), the stores were American (Target, this book was written in 2023, way after we stopped having them in Canada), and finally the characters were American citizens. Could not figure out why we were in Canada.

Hopefully the next books would also be more enjoyable for y'all, but I don't mind either way 🤣

    oh on your confusion/discussion/??? about the roman numerals - it's bc for the 3 they'd hold up three fingers. whereas for the 4 they'd hold up the entire hand (to get the v formed by the outline) and then take one finger away, or at least that's how they interpreted it :)
