Breakup

As the spring thaw comes bears wake up hungry but is a bear responsible for this death?

The first 2/3 of this book was absolutely hilarious to the point where I didn't really care about the mystery element.

Exciting. Familiar characters. Comic relief by Alaska spring thaw. Im reading the Kate Shugak series from start to finish; this was the most intriguing--each story enlightens Shugak's Native American roots, along with the difficulty tribal life faces. In the beginning, Kate faces a really bad day and I'm LMAOROF. This isn't really a chick-book...honest! It's a murder mystery wrapped in Alaska lore and executed by an off-the-grid Alaskan woman. Where's #8?

The BreakUp is insane ! Seriously this state goes nuts on speed during breakup in this book. Kate, she is one strong woman I would have just gotten in my truck and driven south. You think you have difficulties, LOL wait till you read about her days. Her story continues, and I've already ordered book #8
I loved this one most so far it hit all my "Woot Woot Love It" buttons and left me wanting to reread it just to experience it again.

Definitely my least favorite Kate Shugak book so far. Spring arrives in Alaska and spring fever is affecting the people and wildlife. Kate is chased by a bear and then her homestead is trashed when a 747 engine falls on it. In the end though, little happens, but Kate does solve the mystery of two seemingly unrelated deaths and a single perpetrator. The best part was Kate driving around wildly in a Cat tractor settling a Hadley-McCoy type dispute and repairing a destroyed road.

These characters are becoming my friends! I can't stop reading them!

Hillarious thriller - yes, that is possible.

Stabenow 7th Kate Shugak mystery, this one leavened by the comic seasonal madness of the spring thaw
