Agatha Raisin and the Vicious Vet
12 journalers for this copy...
Journal Entry 1 by WigglyWoods from Chorley, Lancashire United Kingdom on Wednesday, December 3, 2008
Retired PR boss Agatha Raisin is enjoying life in her pretty Cotswold village of Carsely. It even seems likely that the attractive new vet, Paul Bladen, has taken a shine to her. But before romance can blossom, Paul is killed in an accident with Lord Pendlebury's horse. Only the circumstances are rather suspicious. So Agatha decides she must once more play amateur investigator. And this cloud has a silver lining - she can persuade her usually stand-offish neighbour, James Lacey, to become her partner in the quest. As usual, Agatha is quite prepared to rush in, heedless of the lurking menace to both James and herself.
This is the first Agatha Raisin book that I've read - a light, evening's read - a few amusing parts but Miss Marple she definitely is not!

I enjoyed this book. I love Agatha and how she is learning how to be part of the community.
James annoyed me. I love Bill.
I enjoyed this one almost as much as Quiche of Death. I didn't think I would be I enjoyed the acquiring of a second cat and the lack of edge parts of the story show us that Agatha is developing.

I received this book a while ago. I just opened it up today. I will send this along with the other book to Bug2004. Thank you for sharing.
This is going out tomorrow afternoon.
Re'cvd today. Have several in front of this one, but will get to it as quick as I can. Thanks for sharing! :)
Much of the same...enjoyable, cozy...fun! :) I liked this one a touch more, but I think that is simply because Agatha is indeed developing and she is growing on me...let's see if it continues! :)
Sorry for keeping it so long...off tmrrw! :)

Arrived safe and sound in Ohio today along with 3 other bookrings. I'll get to this as soon as I can. I keep my profile updated (weekly) so you can always see how close this is to the top of the TBR listing. Thanks for including me and to bug2004 for mailing this to me.
I liked this one a little better than the first one, I'm warming up to Agatha's character. I'll get this on its way to the next reader before Thanksgiving along with Quiche of Death.

Arrived today, along with the Quiche of Death. I've got a couple of books in front of them, but will pass them on as quickly as possible.
I enjoyed this one as much as the first one. I like the town full of characters and I'm looking forward to getting to know them better in the rest of the series.
I'll be sending this one and the Quiche of Death to Tinina67 to start the next leg of their journey.

on it's way to hakkalina in Hungary
Agatha arrived safely, she is beautiful, and I am eager to get to know with her :)
I enjoyed it!!
What a hilarious read it is! After 2 days I am still smiling, mainly if I think about the toilet adventure, or Agatha's daydreamings, shoes stories... I was totally wrapped up in it, I even forgot my envrionment, and smiled, grinned, laughed. I love so much scatterbrained Agatha's .. sometime I would like to resemble her... :)
I want more books about her... :))
