I may not be that bright...I just googled to get the phone number for 1-800-CONTACTS.
That’s not so bad. I called my husband to ask if he knew where my phone was. Yes, the phone that was in my hand. Yes, the one I used to call him. Then I got really angry when he laughed instead of answering my question.
Reading “Animal Instinct” this week. It is very good. I usually read the Andy Carpenter books- love them!😊
It's not too bad. I once turned the kitchen light on to see if I turned the dining room light off so... There's that.
I could SEE you doing that! 🤣
….or wonder we’re your phone is while talking on it…
I panicked when I thought I lost my reading glasses. Until I realized they were on my face!!!!
I couldn’t find my phone while I was talking on it.
You are brilliant and kind to animals. That is all I need to know. I love your books.❤️
I can see me doing this!
Not as bad as looking for reading glasses that are on your face and a cell phone that is in your pocket when Siri says “it’s nearby.”
Well, don’t keep me in suspense - what is the number!? 🐶
Duh! I have climbed in the shower with my glasses on - twice!
Better than googling for 911.
It is a good thing you married well.
I pre-ordered Flop Dead Gorgeous yesterday 📖 🦮🐾
Those letters do make it confusing! 😛
Or walk into a closed patio door.
As long as we know where our dogs are we’re ok!
We all have “ those days”…
Sounds like something I would do
Trust but verify.
I can relate to that!!😆
I'm with you ...
What did Google give you for an answer?
Zoom in! 🤣

LOVE your audio books!! I just discovered them and am on my sixth. SO happy!!!!
Love your books, Mr. Rosenfelt.
Here is my review from 2016; I once read 10 Andy Carpenter books in a row and had to stop because there were no more. Some authors might get more predictable the further into a series they get, but not David Rosenfelt. There is humor that you don't often find in mysteries and Andy Carpenter is nobody's superhero but Tara's. The story line is excellent and you will not come close to figuring out who the real bad guy is.
I just finished Citizen K9 and really enjoyed it!
Love this one!

We lost Lucy this morning. We adopted her a little over three years ago, courtesy of the amazing KellySue Jones. Soon after that she was terribly sick with a perforated abdomen and sepsis. A remarkable surgery (she was given a 30% chance of survival) cured her, and we had her for three more terrific years. I don’t usually post things like this, and I am not looking to provoke expressions of sympathy. She was just truly one of the greats, and this seemed like a way to honor her.
I’m so sorry. 😢 Thank you for all the rescues you do. No dog deserves to live in abuse without love or outside. I’m sorry for your loss but I’m grateful that in her time with you she knew unconditional love, patience and maybe for the first time, kindness. ❤️💔❤️. When reading your books, I can go in knowing whatever horrible things befall humans the dogs will be ok. Go Tara Foundation.
She lived a good life thanks to y’all.
I am so sorry for your loss. I had to put down my dog, Oreo on April 29th. She was 14 years old and was in heart failure and I didn't want her to suffer one more minute. She loved her orange squeaky tennis ball.
So very sorry for your loss. You have touched our hearts with this posting. I have so many words and thoughts for you. As someone once wrote me when I was in a similar circumstance..."Some angels have four feet". God bless you for the great good work you do with dogs, and of course for your fabulous books.
I always appreciate posts like this, honoring a special soul with others is a loving tribute. I’m glad Lucy was in your life, I’m sorry for her loss.
After reading all of your books and stories about your dogs, I feel a part of their stories. Thank you for sharing, so sorry for your loss, but most of all, thank you for giving them a few good years. God Bless you and your wife.
I had an absolutely wonderful golden retriever/springer spaniel mix named Lucy that I lost a few years back. Lucy’s are the very very best. I’m sorry for your loss. So painful. 😔💜🐾💝
She looks like a very good girl. I’m glad you shared the last few years of her life together.
Thank you for being so kind to your pets
So very sorry David. She is running free with all the other pups and is not in any pain.🥰
Thank you for generously sharing this, David. It’s heartwarming to learn how special she has been to you. Thanks for passing that loving “wonder” along to us.
I’m so sorry. Losing a dog is heartbreaking.
I’m so very sorry! The hardest part of loving any being is losing them. I’m sure she knew how much she was loved. ❤️
Sweetheart. Thank you for caring for these sweet babes. Netflix really needs to do a documentary about you and your wife caring for these beautiful pups❤️You two are one in a billion!
I absolutely love knowing a bit about the person behind the books. Knowing what you do with dogs and having read your trip across America, gives so much more depth to the characters that you write about. We dog lovers grieve with you but also know that you gave her the best life she could have . Thank you for what you do in the real world and thank you for what you do in the fictional world. I love each book you read and absorb them as soon as they're available!
I’m so sorry!!!
I’m so sorry.
Hmm, do I see some Leonberger? We fostered 2 puppies that were at least part Leonberger years ago. I'm so sorry for your loss, David. She was beautiful...rest in peace, girl... <3
I’m so sorry. 😢 🌈
I’m glad she had you to love and care for her!
I’m sorry for your loss 💔 I’m sure her years with you were wonderful ❤️ Run free on the other side Lucy ❤️
I’m so sorry.
I'm so sorry for your loss, David. It's amazing how they worm their way into our hearts. I know you and Debbie gave her three great years.
Thank you for your compassion. She is in doggie heaven with our Kobe,Bernese Mt dog. We miss him everyday❤️🙏🏻
I’m so sorry.
Proudly presenting the newest member of our family, 10 year old Daisy, a bloodhound mix who is pure adorable. She came to us from Midcoast Humane in Brunswick. After being in our house just a few hours, she jumped up on Debbie's lap and decided that's where she wanted her dinner.
Remember when you told me that after moving to Maine, you were intentionally NOT bringing more dogs into your home? I knew then that wasn’t gonna happen, and I’m so glad I was right and you were wrong.
Daisy wants her picture on the next book cover! ❤️❤️
I fell in love with my bloodhound Katie when I fostered her. I just couldn't imagine my life without her. Bloodhounds have so many vocalizations to express their very big feelings.
I love your happy family pictures. We had a rough weekend. One of our old timers had a stroke and his heart was failing. We told him we would meet him at the Rainbow Bridge.He was born with no hip sockets and now that God has him he is pain free. He will be missed my us and the herd.
I love your home and love your books too! Blessings to all
I love her. Hounds are my favorite… but I have a min poodle and lhasa pop Both rescues
Thank you for adopting a senior dog and for all of the work that you do for dogs! And for your books!!❤️
Absolutely precious! THANK YOU FOR DOING WHAT YOU DO!!!
I love that you & Debbie do this!!!
I love you adopt senior dogs!!!!!
I love your books, not in small part because it feels safe to read a book by someone who loves dogs. If you ever do a book signing in Downeast ME please let us all know. I would love to attend.
She's lovely! I love bloodhounds. <3
So happy Daisy has a wonderful loving forever home!!!💕
I love your books and your love of fur babies
You guys… your love knows no bounds!
She's beautiful! I have bassets and love hounds. Have fun with her!
It makes my heart happy that y’all take care of so many dogs that need someone and need a home.
Congratulations!! She’s a beauty!!!❤️
I'd say Daisy has made herself right at home - smart girl. Thank you for adopting a senior dog.
Hi Daisy! You found the best place to live your life! Enjoy.
You and Debbie have the biggest hearts. Thank you for all you do for so many animals. You bring joy to the dogs as well as to your Facebook friends.
Awww, so sweet...
You're the best taking in Daisy. She's adorable
Thank you both for rescuing these furry babies❤️
She is beautiful. They are wonderful.
It can be difficult to walk in our house.
Best kind of road blocks ever!
I know that unique walk very well! 😂❤️
Looks very familiar. We have 32
You are blessed by all these wonderful pups and they are blessed to have YOU in their lives! I haven’t read your books but i intend to now! Bless you!
I only have one Golden and it can be difficult to walk around him sometimes. I can't imagine trying to manuever around all of those sweet puppies!!!
I would love to!
But what a beautiful floor of blessings to surround you both 🐾 💕
Absolutely, we have 10 rescues.
Perfection ❤️
Mine too! Dog,cats,multiple toys. I put them back in their toy box but they don’t stay there long. At one time or another I had chickens in the house (they DO make chicken diapers,you know) I once tripped over a goat and broke a rib 😬
But you wouldn't have it any other way!
I love it!
At my house, it's cats that make it difficult but I do think one of the cats is a reincarnation of my lovely Roxy who was a Sheba Inu.
Love this!❤️You take wonderful care of your dogs they are well loved❤️🐇🐾❤️
Lots of sweet fluffy fur babies!
That’s the kind of obstacle course I could really get behind.
Love it! Mine too!
My kind of house!
Those are some beautiful floor coverings you have there! 😍
What a beautiful life ❤️
I love your books. Can’t wait for the next one❤️
I've had 5 at one time, easy compared to your pack. I've always loved goldens. You must be in heaven every day.
So adorable!❤️ I have only one dog and it is amazing how many times he stands in my way in the house. And he won't move!
So adorable!❤️
Think of all the great exercise you get!
Mia has expressed her annoyance that there is not a mastiff on the cover.
Great read. Thank you
I’m surprised she hasn’t slimed it!
Just started reading last nite. Love your books. Love German Shepherds too
I love your K-9 books!
I’m with Mia. Just saying.
This was another great book. I've read all the books you've written. Thank you. Keep the books coming.

As well, she should !
Just read it. Love your books. Thank you.❤️❤️❤️
I enjoyed the book. Thank you
I can feel her outrage
Maybe next time, Mia. "Mastiff Mischief"
I understand! My Beau is upset that a golden doodle is not on the cover!🤣
just finished reading "dog tripping", great book, you and your wife are so wonderful, saving so many animals, also, enjoy reading your mystery novels
But it was a great book!
She is beautiful.The book was awesome even without a mastiff. Although I am partial to all the

Kim Pfeiffer... Kristen?? Sale!!!
Oh yeah 👍
This is GREAT.
The only state that I knew had a state dog was South Carolina, the Boykin spaniel. Anne River Siddons wrote a novel that centered around a dog. It's a great read. My niece adopted a Boykin rescue. I love that Delaware did this. Thanks for letting me know.
well, i was WAY ahead of them when i lived in millsboro, delaware !! i kept seeing this poor pooch shackled to a rickety old barn that was ready to fall down !! so i stopped & asked the local animal welfare agency to check on the pooch. all i was told was that the humans had the legal size attachment !! not, was the pooch well fed, had the appropriate shots, etc, etc. well, to "make a long story short" that's how i would up with chappy, a full breed cocker spaniel !! he was being used as a back yard stud and NEVER allowed in the house !!
I knew there was a good reason I’m considering relocating to Delaware next year.
I love this!
Good for Delaware!
Good things happen when the two parties can find common ground. Let this be a lesson 🙂
Very exciting!!! Iowa…if only, but we unfortunately have gov kr… awful.
How great is this. My 2 rescues agree
Awesome!!!
What a great idea!
Every state should do this! David, You would be the perfect person to ask your state rep to get the ball rolling in MAINE!
So wonderful!
Clever !!
We're waiting for the state of Oregon to do the same.
Yay yay
The first dog should be 'Shelter Dog'.
❤️❤️❤️
Great
Awesome!!❤❤❤❤❤
Wonderful!

The first advance review of "Flop Dead Gorgeous" is in. Spoiler Alert...they really liked it, or I wouldn't have posted it.
Flop Dead Gorgeous: An Andy Carpenter Mystery by David Rosenfelt
www.publishersweekly.com
Rosenfelt’s witty, well-paced 27th courtroom cozy starring Paterson, N.J., trial lawyer Andy Carpenter (after 2022’s Santa’s Lit...I can hardly wait! My number one favorite author! I’ve read and listened to all of your Andy Carpenter Mysteries several times. Will Grover Gardner be narrating this book for your audiobook on this one? Right now I’m reading your latest in your connected series, God Dog, Bad Cop. Very good! But I’m of course missing Andy being center of it all. Thank you for all your work with Goldens. My grandson and great grandson with their Bubba. Keep more Andy Carpenter mysteries coming please!
Can’t wait!
Of course they did. You are a great writer and I've loved all your books.
Looking forward to reading this one. <3
Can’t wait!!
I can’t wait! David Rosenfelt is my absolute favorite author!
Can't wait!!!!!!
Cant wait
Can't wait!
I love the last line of the review. So true.
Can’t wait!
Can’t wait! I read and reread your books!
Love it - can’t wait. Also am a life long poodle lover. 🐩🐩
Witty, well paced and fresh. That’s awesome! Congratulations. Of course we knew it all along but it’s nice to see that so-called professionals recognize it too.
Can’t wait to get my hands on it. Sometimes I have to reread early ones in order to get my Tara and Andy fix 🤣
So looking forward to this new Andy Carpenter book.
Have preorderd it on Audible. Can’t wait!
Lucky to have read an ARC - one of his best. Love the wit and sarcasm!
Looking forward to it. Can’t wait! You need to write faster! Lol
Exciting !
Fantastic! I absolutely cannot wait!!!! I was just bragging to my work group how fabulous all of your writings are and that I have every single book. Looking forward to adding to my collection!
Or course they would. All your books are awesome.
Pre-ordered! Can’t wait.
Cute cover. Will be reading!
Love all the covers! The cute dog covers are why I purchased my first David Rosenfelt book. I was hooked after the first one.
This AI stuff is really smart...since everyone always compares me with Shakespeare, I asked Chat GPT what it thought about it. Here's what it said: Use of Humor: Both Shakespeare and Rosenfelt use humor in their works to add depth and complexity to their characters and plot. Shakespeare is known for his use of bawdy humor, wordplay, and irony, while Rosenfelt often uses wit and sarcasm to create a lighthearted tone in his mystery novels.
Use of Dialogue: Both writers are known for their skillful use of dialogue to convey character and advance the plot. Shakespeare's plays are known for their poetic language and dramatic monologues, while Rosenfelt's novels feature snappy dialogue that reflects the humor and personality of his characters.
Creation of Memorable Characters: Both Shakespeare and Rosenfelt are known for creating memorable characters that resonate with readers. Shakespeare's characters are some of the most famous in literature, from the tragic Hamlet to the comedic Falstaff. Similarly, Rosenfelt's Andy Carpenter series features a cast of quirky characters, including a golden retriever named Tara, who have become beloved by readers.
I’ve read both authors and I predict future generations will remember Rosenfelt and forget Shakespeare. Sorry Will. You had a great run, but it’s time to step aside.
As a former English major, I shouldn’t admit I like you better. Besides, I have it on good authority that Shakespeare didn’t have a dog.
I reread your books all the time; Shakespeare, not ever!
The difference for me is I have shelves full of David Rosenfelt books and zero of Shakespeare
I introduced your books to my mom who is 88 yrs young and she loves them. I need to make sure she has your most recent books.
I cannot remember whether Andy or the Witches said: Double double toil and trouble; fire burn and cauldron bubble. I think Andy said that when his favorite football team was losing.
I love it!! This is great!!!
Even though Shakespeare is a great writer, I prefer Rosenfelt!
Gee, I never noticed the resemblance until now! You should do a DNA test!
Well - I for one prefer novels that feature dogs so there’s another plus in the David R column!
I am going back through the Andy Carpenter series now on audible and literally laughing out loud sometimes…yesterday I did get some funny looks in the waiting room at the dentist!
i haven't read much shakespeare, but i've read all the Andy Carpenter books, i'm going with liking DR best. Also i have no desire to go back and read any shakespeare and i look forward to reading and rereading DR. DR wins here in this neck of the woods!
I would read Rosenfelt over Shakespeare any day!😃
Shakespeare doesn’t have a “Tara” anywhere in his books ( that I can remember). Rosenfelt has him up by 1 !
You are the Shakespeare of our generation but even better, in my opinion, because DOGS.
The logical conclusion is that David Rosenfelt is Shakespeare. I knew it all along!
And we all know how positively fearless Andy Carpenter can be….putting himself in impossible situations that could result in his death. Thank goodness Tara is always there to help out ……& so is Marcus.
You two could have been twins separated at birth.
I have been to Shakespeare's house..haven't been to yours yet..😁 Actually, that statement sounds a bit creepy 😳 🤣
Love this comparison! Spot on. Especially the wit and sarcasm. Read all your books, waiting on the next one!
In addition, you are much better looking. Just sayin'.
I can't disagree! I think your characters are well developed and interesting and who doesn't appreciate what I call Andy's Jersey Snark?
So true!
Clever party of one! That would be you !!!! Waiting to read your latest from my library! I was number 50 out 124 in the line of requests!!!
I never thought about it but they're right!!
