(that's not a rabbit) I thought this was only a 3 book series! "Then Dr. Bairstow, his voice harsh with urgency said, 'Leon. Get out. They're here. RUN!' How am I supposed to resist that last line! Sucked into another one. LOL Off to Amazon to see if I have enough gift card money left.

Returning to St Mary’s already feels like a long awaited return home, even as I’m bingereading my way through the series.

Just One Damned Thing After The Other, the first title in the series, must surely rank as one of the most appropriately named books ever; because it's true. Every time another catastrophe is averted, and you think you can now breathe a sigh of relief . . . Well, think again because it's not happeni...
