This was a very interesting history of a local unsolved murder outside Troy in 1908. The case is still unsolved but after an extensive review of the known facts the authors put forth their suspect.

I love this book! the whole warrior cats series is amazing but this book really came out to me. the characters are more relatable and their stories are well written.

Sweet story of human animal relations.

I enjoyed this book. Speaks to how things that happen in your youth have a lasting effect. Also has nice toes to forgiveness.

I really enjoyed this book. It tells the stories of black voices in the 50's. These events did happen and haven't been told. It makes you think of all forms of oppression.

I like that it is an autobiography about a boy from NY, like me. He is very hard-working. It is well-written

An interesting dive into the different ways gardening and plants have inspired different authors of mysteries. Discusses different books (and shares them at the end for ease of finding when you inevitably decide some of them sound like amazing reads themselves). I appreciated the concept, having not read something like this before. Marta does an excellent job infusing her own interests and humor into the information she is sharing. I read Sherlock Holmes as a child and have not delved too deeply into mysteries beyond cozy ones as an adult but this book is a great launch off point. My husband has been getting into gardening so this was a fun juxtaposition of both of our current interests and it was fun to share tidbits as I went along through the chapters.

I liked how the book ended and it

There are some crazy facts in this book!
