Book Review

Another Time, Another Place is a touching and heartbreaking book in the Chronicles of St. Mary's series by Jodi Taylor. (When available, I use Amazon affiliate links and may earn a commission.) The hilarious and unstoppable team of Maxwell and Markham kept me so entertained. Following their adventures in Victorian England was a hoot. Plus, I learned a lot about Babylon and the Tower of Babel. Here's the video of my full book review. (Did you know I have a YouTube channel of book reviews called Book Blab?

Indigo Ridge is the perfect mashup of the romance and mystery genres. I loved the spicy romance and the unfolding small town mystery. (When available, I use Amazon affiliate links and may earn a commission.) The chemistry between Winn and Griffin was off the charts. I loved their steamy romance scenes. And the mystery kept me guessing the whole time. Having the female main character be the chief of police was refreshing. I really enjoyed this small town, Montana romance.

A Sinister Revenge is a twisty mystery inside a mystery set in Victorian England with a large cast of characters. (When available, I use Amazon affiliate links and may earn a commission.) The Veronica Speedwell series is one of my favorites. A Sinister Revenge was bogged down in the beginning (the setup) but once the mystery took off, it was a page turner. The large cast of characters was delightful, and I love having Merriwether (the younger brother) there. Here's the video of my full book review.

Carlene O'Connor's Irish cozy mystery series is the gold standard. After a slow start, Murder at an Irish Bakery flew by. (When available, I use Amazon affiliate links and may earn a commission.) I didn't think Murder at an Irish Bakery would surprise me, but it did! The mystery was thick with clues and red herrings. If you're a baker, or love baking competitions, you will LOVE this book. It has all the hallmarks of a bake shop cozy mystery. Here's the video of my full book review. (Did you know I have a YouTube channel of book reviews called Book Blab?

A World of Curiosities is another terrific murder mystery by Louise Penny. Inspector Gamache must detangle clues within clues and face personal trauma to catch the killer. (When available, I use Amazon affiliate links and may earn a commission.) Although I guessed the killer before the end, A World of Curiosities is wonderful. Be warned: It's darker than Penny's other Inspector Gamache books. Here's the video of my full book review. (Did you know I have a YouTube channel of book reviews called Book Blab?
