Books Can Be Deceiving

I actually really enjoyed this one! Setting was great and I thoroughly enjoyed the mystery.

Also the love interest isn't the cop so that's a huge plus

A great cozy mystery!!

I loved the friendship between the main characters, the setting, and of course, Sully. :) Rick was so awful, and I found myself wishing Beth had had more of a chance to confront him. But overall this is a great start to the series, and I'd definitely recommend it to cozy readers.

so cozy! (well, except for the murder(s) - the bad person was thwacked satisfyingly with an OED) written by a librarian, where does she find the time?

Cute cute cozy mystery. I love the library setting – and having served on a small town library Board myself, found it at times very relatable. Also since living in the harsh Arizona desert, I enjoy escaping the summer by reading about other places with more pleasant summers!! The author currently lives in Scottsdale, and I have a soft spot for local authors. A few sections of dialogue were a little cringeworthy (Lindsay uses the term “baby-momma” where it didn't really fit), and definitely some holes to the mystery, but the setting and characters make up for it. Hey, it's a fun cozy, I'm not going over it with a fine-toothed comb.

I read the 7th book in the series first for a local book club, and decided to give the whole series a try.
