“The McKinley Mysteries are cozy mysteries which is a little different from Carolyn Arnold’s other series. Exercise is Murder is a quick and fun read. It includes mystery, a little romance, a little suspense, and some twists. I’m looking forward to reading more of Sean and Sara’s adventures.”

“Exercise is Murder kept me guessing from the beginning hiding its secrets very well. Each of the suspects seemed to be so cool, calm and collective never giving up anything which is why I wasn’t able to figure it out.

“I love the titles of each chapters having to do with exercise in some way or another. I have thoroughly enjoyed each and every book of Carolyn Arnold’s that I have read but I would have to say I think that Exercise is Murder may just be my favorite so far. I loved all the characters but Sara an Sean were my favorites. I loved their attitudes and how they dealt with the small things and their love for each other.

“So I will say again that I really and truly loved Exercise is Murder and can’t wait to read more books with Sara and Sean. I recommend Exercise is Murder to all mystery fans.”

“One of the things I like about Carolyn Arnold’s McKinley Mysteries is how all the chapter names tend to align with the theme of the book. For example, this one is called Exercise Is Murder, so chapter titles include: “No Pain, No Gain,” “Accelerating the Heart Rate,” “A Jog in the Park,”…etc.

“Overall, I enjoyed Exercise Is Murder by Carolyn Arnold, there was suspense and humor, lots of police work without being part of law enforcement, and lots of questions, work-arounds, and overall a ton of fun and excitement.”

“I have to admit I’m not usually a fan of husband and wife duo’s (I instantly think of the old 80’s telly series “Hart to Hart”) but I was pleasantly surprised, it’s really well written, Sean and Sara bounce along pretty well. Plenty of laughs and a few surprises..”

“This is a fast, easy read with elements of mystery, surprise, humor, a bit of romance, and characters that are finely defined. There are plenty of suspects to follow and sifting through the lies and secrets .”

“Carolyn Arnold is a master at showing the characters and events through her ability to describe them in detail. She makes it easy to form a picture in my mind.

“Exercise In Murder by Carolyn Arnold is a quick, fun, easy reading police procedural that includes enough suspects to keep my mind working trying to figure it out before she tells me. I love that Carolyn writes with a light touch, including humor with her murder.”

“I was particularly drawn to this story as I enjoy running myself. And I love the classification of short & sweet cozies. It sums the book up brilliantly. A real page turner of a mystery that I didn’t want to put down. And although thoroughly modern, made me think back to the days of the golden greats. I would certainly like to read some of the other titles in this series.”

“Exercise is Murder is the third book that I have read to date by Carolyn Arnold and I must say that each book has been vastly different from the other. While I have noted that some authors tend to stick to the one main genre that they excel in, Arnold does not fit this mold. Whether it be the heart-pounding adventures of “The Secret of the Lost Pharaoh”, the gritty, suspenseful police procedural offering of “Shades of Justice” and now a light, but no less interesting “Exercise is Murder” Arnold has proven yet again to be a master of several genres.”

“Carolyn has a writing style that is easy to follow, regardless of the amount of characters thrown into the mix of murder madness. She will always bring you back with reminders of “who” the character is. This is so appreciative of someone like myself, who sometimes has a hard time following along.

“Exercise is Murder raises questions and keeps you wondering…So keep that coffee flowing! ☕️ The McKinley series, with likeable characters such as Sean and Sara are those one would love to see made into short TV movies. I’m hinting at you, Hallmark 🙂”

The story is very intriguing, and it is a book I couldn’t put down. You feel like you are one of the characters trying to solve the mystery with Sean and Sara. I love it when a murder mystery keeps me guessing until the very end.

“A must-read!”

“Carolyn Arnold sure knows how to write a good mystery, be it a cozy or police procedurals. She creates magic with her pen. Every time I pick up one of her books, I know I would be entertained and she would have me guessing from start to finish. Exercise Is Murder was no different.

“Exercise Is Murder was an entertaining and addictive read. Overall, this was another great addition to the series. If you enjoy cozy mysteries, then you should give this series a chance.”
