Okay, so I wasn’t expecting to love this book as much as I did. It was a bit cheesy I’ll have to admit, but it was still very gripping. I tried to guess who committed the murder, but I couldn’t. And the plot twist surprised me. So, I’d say it’s a very good murder mystery. I also loved the characters and the hint of romance. Will continue reading the series. ( )

This is a mystery series whose protagonist is a Jane Austen fanatic. There are lots of quotes and references to the grand dame, so beware. I really liked it; it has a bit of a literary air wrapped in a cozy mystery cape. ( )

Good things--surprise ending and great literary quotes.

Bad things--will someone PLEASE tell me why there have to be these women who are so convinced that they know more than the police do and have to do their jobs for them? And then there are the police who decide to discuss murders in a nice cosy little teashop with all of the residents of the town listening in?

Yes--the heroine of this one was worse than others, but still....No more of this series for me! ( )

A cute mystery. Elizabeth goes to her Aunt Winnie's B&B for a New Year's Eve murder mystery party, but instead of an actor "dying" there is a real murder. Everyone at the event is a suspect and Elizabeth begins to investigate. ( )
