Murder in the Corn Maze by G. A. McKevett

This was another cozy mystery that did not work for me, but I think it might for other people. Our leading lady is a grandmother to seven grandkids and has sole custody. This is a pretty chaotic situation to land into directly without prior information which might have been present in the first book (this…

Jeopardy in July (Jamie Quinn Mystery #5) by Barbara Venkataraman

I have reviewed the earlier books below: This is one of the continuing series that I have access to thanks to the author herself. That has not affected my review in any manner, and the review is entirely based on my own reading experience as I will describe below. This is the fifth instalment of…

The Wipeout Affair by Rachel Neuburger Reynolds

Now, I really liked the first book of the series: I had left reading the first book too late, so when I saw the second was out I jumped at it and finished it as soon as I could. It was shorter than the first (or felt like it) but lacked the sparkle of the…

Death Beside the Seaside (Lady Hardcastle Mysteries #6) by T.E. Kinsey,

Narrator: Elizabeth Knowelden I have adored this series from the get-go. I started listening to it early on in my KU membership, and the absolutely brilliant narration of Elizabeth Knowelden is but the icing on a very, very delicious cake. If you check out my previous reviews below you will know just what I am…

Grave Expectations by Heather Redmond

I picked this book up despite it being the second in a series I had not heard of before because I saw other people say its position did not affect the story much. I must say that while that might be true, I still wish I had a better introduction to Charles'(the fictional one) life…

Dover one and Dover Two – Joyce Porter

This is yet another foray into an older mystery series being reprinted. This particular series was first published in 1965 and they were comparatively smaller books that other I had on my TBR that I decided to jump right in and read them both. This will be a part of my #BritishCrimeClassicsChallenge The 'hero' of our…

Murder in Black Tie (High Society Lady Detective #4) by Sara Rosett

  There are some books that I start reading because of recommendations from others and then there are those that I stumbled upon, enjoyed despite the overall ratings not being too high. These latter ones are rare, and this series is one of them (might even be the only one if I investigate this angle…

In Rhino We Trust (A Jenny Willson Mystery #3) by Dave Butler

This was unlike any other fictional mystery book that I have read this year. There are so many facts and realities woven into the tale, it is easy to forget the main protagonists (at least) are not real. It is also the third of a series I had never heard of or read before and…
