Books like Knock 'em Dead

As per usual, I enjoy reading Murder She Wrote stories and this one, Knock 'Em Dead, is no exception. It's easy reading with hints to discover who the murderer is before it's revealed. I sort of guessed right in this story, at least partially. However, the writer keeps me guessing with other possible choices.Even though these are murder mysteries, there is something about theses stories that takes my mind off daily issues and relaxes me. Even the TV series, especially the TV series, somehow calms my nerves and removes any tensions I might have and then many times, I snooze away. That might not be a good thing to say about the shows, but I love them and they are good bedtime stories. The reason might be, because they don't seem to apply in the real world. The books and the TV shows are simple, enjoyable and allows me to move on to whatever comes next in my life without added burdens; whereas, other books make me think. Did I say that right?
