The Real Macaw by Donna Andrews

5.0

Meg Langslow is powering through the first months of motherhood and middle of the night feedings with twins. She is awakened to find her downstairs has been turned into a menagerie because her kind-hearted grandfather and brother have kidnapped all the animals from the local shelter who were going to be put to sleep due to a change in policy and brought them to her house. Including one foul-mouthed parrot. Someone connected to the shelter turns up dead. My favorite Meg Langslow books are always the ones that have lots of funny animal scenes. The llamas made an appearance in this one, which sent it straight to my favorites list! I also enjoyed the dog herding sheep scene, too funny. 5/5 stars. Favorites.
