Adventures in Murder Chasing

Funeral Crashing #3

That is until Kait stumbles across another suspicious death at her favorite coffee shop, Wired. Not able to help herself, Kait sets out to investigate!

Suddenly Kait's problems go from whether or not she should say the L-word to Ethan to fears that the murder she's investigating might not be murder at all. Should Kait follow her gut or is she just chasing murders?

An amateur detective or should I say high schooler, continues solving cases that professional police officers couldn't.

SUMMARY (50 words or less)
So I love this series. It’s super cute and well written. I love how it makes me laugh at times. Kait almost got a little to whiny for me in this book, but then again, she’s being a teen. Thus, I can enjoy the realism.

Reviewed on Lili Lost in a Book

I love, love, LOVE this series! It’s just so much fun and the romance is super cute! I can’t usually stand super cheesy romances, but I felt like this one is different. Ethan and Kait are just so cute together and it’s so adorable I want to cry! Lol.

The mystery in this book I feel like wasn’t as personal as the previous two, but that does not, by any means, mean that it wasn’t good. It was still a good mystery and very interesting. Though I feel like because it wasn’t as personal, it wasn’t as great since the characters didn’t have much to lose. However, it was still quite surprising with the twisty ending. I can’t say too much because of spoilers and whatnot, but we started out with one thing and ended up with another and it was just insane! It blew my mind! There was also a funeral crashing mishap that was quite hilarious and very awkward but set things in motion. It was great!

One thing I love about this series is that in the beginning it all started out with only Kait and Ethan investigating, and now everyone, Kait’s friends, are also pitching in to help solve these murders! Ariel included, shockingly, I know. Speaking of, I think Kait’s relationship with Ariel might be moving in a different direction, but in a good way... maybe. I don't know, it’s just very complicated and kind of awkward at the moment, which I actually kind of liked. I really cannot wait to see where their relationship goes from here.

Oh and I also have to mention the offer that the Detective made Kait... it’s SO exciting! I wonder how things will work out. I need to know and need the next book, like, yesterday!

I’ve said this in the last two book reviews, but it’s worth mentioning again because this series is just that great: I highly recommend this if you’re looking for a good mystery with fun, likable characters and a totally adorable romantic aspect. Definitely check it out!

Kindle Unlimited, but got a copy from the writer for possible review, then my computer messed up with all my arcs, review copies and so on. If I hadn't gotten copy of the 3 set, probably would not have even finished 1 much less 3 books, but this was one of my was asked to review, own free will, no other compensation blah blah blah blah reviews. Read this in the 3 {1-3} set.

See reveiw for just how made it was for #1, so not taking the time to detail just why and how #3 was.

The Funeral Crashing Mysteries Box Set includes Books 1-3: Adventures in Funeral Crashing, Adventures of a Graveyard Girl, and Adventures in Murder Chasing.
ADVENTURES IN FUNERAL CRASHING (#1)
Sixteen year old Kait Lenox has a reputation as the weird girl in her high school, mostly because of her ex-best friend turned mean popular girl, Ariel, but maybe it has a little to do with the fact that Kait has a hobby crashing funerals. At one of these, Kait is outted by the most popular guy in school, Ethan Ripley. Yet, instead of humiliating her for all the world to see, he asks for her help, and Kait finds herself entangled in a murder mystery. Not only is the thrill of the mystery exciting, but more importantly Ethan knows her name! A little sleuthing is well worth that!
ADVENTURES OF A GRAVEYARD GIRL (#2)
Kait Lenox is back! It's Homecoming Dance time and Kait is excited. It's her first dance with a date and that date is none other than one of the hottest, most popular guys in her school, Ethan Ripley! For once Kait doesn't feel like a funeral crashing weird girl and it's the most perfect romantic evening ever...at least until a girl gets murdered in the high school bathroom. Rumors fly, panic ensues, and Kait can't help herself, she assigns herself to the case!

The Teenage Detectives

Murder on college grounds. This is another very interesting story by Milda Harris. The characters are the as I in the previous , murder is the plot a the teenage deceptive are the same. Another great flow of the storyline, with twists and turns to keep you hooked. Great Read

Kait catches the killer AND gets her man! 🎉❤️

Kait, Ethan & friends work together to stakeout college campus dorms, as they try and locate a killer targeting innocent college students. Kait’s bravery earns her chance for an internship, and she also dares to share the “L” word with Ethan.

I enjoyed this book but didn't love it as much as the first two. It seemed to jump right in then spend most of the middle slowing moving through and getting to the good part near the end. Well written but missed something I was looking for.

[Monica ४ · Rating 4 out of 5]

I just love how this series is progressing. The development of both the characters and their relationships with each other... It's just so all ON POINT!

Kait and Ethan are moving at a realistic pace as a couple. Ariel's slowly coming round to building bridges with Kait (which has me grinning like an idiot). Ethan is starting to talk about Liz again. It's all where it needs to be. With that said...

I'm so excited to see what the next book has in store for our Murder Chasing Squad...

[Lacy Osman · Rating 5 out of 5]

I loved this series and I'm so excited to learn it will continue on. The author does a great job of finishing each story but leaving you begging for Kait, Ethan and all their friends next adventure in murder investigating. I will definitely continue with the next book in this series!!

[Angela Sharp · Rating 3 out of 5]

I like this book it was a good and a fun fun read, but..... It didn't keep me into it like the first two books did. It has it's very good moments, good moments, and then in some spots in the story it felt kinda dragged along. But in all and all it was a good read.

[Shirley · Rating 5 out of 5]

I really loved this 3rd book in this series! Kait is soo funny and such a lovable main character. I totally could see her trying to investing all these mysteries! I love Ethan. Can't wait for book 4!

[Mỹ Khương · Rating 5 out of 5]

[Dan Bonser · Rating 5 out of 5]

I so love these books, and I still can't believe that I do. Its almost a guilty pleasure, but I truly enjoy watching Kait expand as a character and grow.

I didn’t see that one coming! What a pleasant surprise on Book 3 of the Funeral Crashing Mystery series. I enjoy reading about Kait and her sleuthing mysteries. One of the most touching moments, that actually brought tears to my eyes, was the chapter where Kait introduces Ethan to her friend Leonora at the cemetery. Great story, great characters, and great humor and mystery.
