This would also be a disclaimer to whoever wins this - every page is readable but it has no cover and teeth marks in the spine.
So my question today is - what is the worst thing your pet has ever eaten?
~~~~~ Review by Mary Gramlich ~~~~~
TO
THE GRAVE by Carlene Thompson
What
secrets do we really take to the grave?
Catherine
Gray came back to Aurora Falls to start a psychology practice, and wound up falling
in love with James Eastman. Catherine does
admit she always had deep feelings for him.
James however had married another only to have her leave without a trace
and forcing him to divorce her for desertion.
Well without a trace that is until Catherine falls on top of her dead
body literally.
Everyone
is pointing the finger at James who had the most to gain by his ex-wife’s
demise but Catherine believes in his innocence.
This becomes especially true when more people are murdered in the same
way and tokens are left with each body.
The search is on for whoever is doing this terrible deed but the
suspects seem to all be people very close to the deceased.
What
puzzles everyone is who the real target might be, is it James to punish him for
some misbegotten deed or Catherine for being with James. The deeper this mystery is explored, the fewer
questions are answered, and the more bodies turn up.
Carlene
Thompson keeps her stories fresh, her mysteries intriguing, and the characters
interesting to the point of distraction.
You start a book of Ms. Thompson’s and you cannot put it down, so much,
for the laundry being done today, I have another chapter to read.

The worst thing a pet ever ate was the wheels off a lawnmower...or drywall. Sorry, it's a toss up there. Same dog, too, but she was a puppy then.
ReplyDeleteI have cats that like to eat plastic bags and of course, you know what they do to my furniture!
ReplyDeleteOne of our cats will eat anything and I learned a long time ago to not leave anything out. We did stop having a Christmas tree because she climbed up in it and was eating the branches.
ReplyDeleteMy dog once ate our other dog's pills. We had to have her stomach pumped and because she was nursing puppies we had to give her something to keep her milk from souring.
ReplyDeleteDon't have a pet.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was in High School my dog literally ate my homework. Funny thing - no one believed me.
ReplyDeleteMy cat loves people food -- one day she slide a slice of bacon off my plate.
ReplyDeleteGood story today, the only thing she ever ate was hotdogs left out on the counter.
ReplyDeleteThis book sounds like a really good read.
lol I have 2 rats, so they only usually eat what I give them. Unless they sneak on to the coffee table while I have them out and sneak some candy from the candy bowl.
ReplyDeleteAll the candy under the Christmas tree and then barfed it up on the rug.
ReplyDeleteMy daughter was given expensive chocolates by her then boyfriend. She made the mistake of leaving them open, on the coffee table. When she got home, she found that our dog had eaten most of them. He was as sick as a dog later. (Excuse the pun).
ReplyDeleteI went to work full time after having our first dog for 7 months while I was with my husband who was in the service. Then she was left alone while we both worked full time. What didn't she eat or destroy - new pair of shoes never worn, a box of books destroyed, a pizza, ate and buried in our furniture a dozen sticky roll buns, a hard contact lens, my birth control pills, and I could go on but you get the idea. Then our second dog was only alone the first year and she ate her leather collar, a knee high, a container of baby oil, a cassette tape, a hole in a large bean bag chair that left little white balls all over our game room - looked like it snowed... When I was home with them they never misbehaved lol.
ReplyDeletei have a cat, 2... and thank god they never eat anything but their food...
ReplyDeletethank you :)
When one of our cats was a kitten he ate part of a brillo pad, a pot scrubber and a plastic milk tab and had to have surgery to remove the blockage.
ReplyDeleteMy dog chewed on my work assigned cell phone one time. I found it on her pillow with bite marks all over it, and it no longer worked. I had to tell my boss the next day that my dog killed my phone. He thought it was quite amusing, and they did assign me a new phone.
ReplyDeleteOh this made me laugh! My husky destroyed a hard cover book when he was a puppy! Guess he loves books too =)
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like a good one. I put it on my list of books to read.
ReplyDeleteIt is a toss up as to the WORST thing my dog chewed:
A needlepoint pillow stitched by me and professionally stuffed or
An antique copy of Jayne Eyre given to me by my aunt.
