Book Review

Moonflower Murders by Anthony Horowitz is an homage to Agatha Christie. It's also a book within a book, but neither held my attention very well. (When available, I use Amazon affiliate links and may earn a commission.) Anthony Horowitz is clearly a talented writer. Moonflower Murders just wasn't my cup of tea. I guessed the killer early on, and I didn't find the story very compelling. If you're a fan of the first book, Magpie Murders, you may very well love this book. Beware: Even though it's an homage to Christie, there is swearing! Here's the video of my full book review. (Did you know I have a YouTube channel of book reviews called Book Blab?

Sex, Murder & a Double Latte by Kyra Davis is the most fun I've had reading a murder mystery in a long time. It's also part rom com. (When available, I use Amazon affiliate links and may earn a commission.) Sex, Murder & a Double Latte has so many clues, twists, and turns that I thought I knew the killer, but I was DEAD wrong. You'll love the plucky female amateur sleuth and her sidekicks. Plus, her love interest is swoon worthy. Here's the video of my full book review.

Fries and Alibis is a hilarious cozy mystery by Trixie Silvertale, chock full of all your favorite cozy mystery tropes. You've got a main character as a suspect, a bookstore inheritance, a handscome sheriff, a smarty-pants pet, and a ghost. I mean, what else could you ask for? And the dialog and writing, which is in the first person, is as funny as it is quick-paced. (When available, I use Amazon affiliate links and may earn a commission.) I listened to Fries and Alibis on Audible. The narrator has a throaty voice that really lent itself well to the main character, Mitzy Moon. Here's the video of my full book review.

A Murder of Crows was my first Sarah Yarwood-Lovett book and I highly recommend it. Her writing is a joy to read. A Murder of Crows is more of a traditional mystery than a cozy, but it has a bit of romance (love triangle!) in it that kept me turning the pages as much of the mystery. #teamjames (When available, I use Amazon affiliate links and may earn a commission.)
