'Best book I have read in years! I cannot remember being so engrossed in a story. I felt that I knew Rachel and Matthew. Romantic, funny, witty. Just sad I have finished it.' Amazon Review
“I had no idea that I would be sucked in and completely absorbed with it for two days until I finished it! I fell in love with the characters flaws and all!…I found this book to be a great read. The author really drew me in and is an amazing story teller.” Goodreads Review

@bookstodon My #review of Indian Burial Ground by Nick Medina is now live! This would be even creepier and more tense if the narrative had been arranged differently, but otherwise it's pretty awesome.
Two pieces of good news this week! The first 3 Accidental Detective humorous mystery novels will come out in audio! PLUS HarperCollins/Harlequin contracted for the mass market paperback rights of something Shady at Sunshine Haven. (Mass-market is the small paperback size. Right now they're in trade paperback.) These options should bring the books to more readers. I don't know yet when they'll be out though. #Books@bookstodon#mystery#cozy

I forgot to post that I was reading The Mystery Guest by Nita Prose. This is the sequel to The Maid that I read previously. I liked this book better than the first one, maybe because I knew what to expect from Molly and the other hotel staff. Another thing I liked about this book was how it switched from Molly’s perspective in present day to her memories of her childhood. It added a lot of background and context that I found necessary for the development of the book’s plot.

He's also interested in Jane as more than a friend, but Jane is not ready for the media attention and the glamour of dating a star. Can she overcome her fears and find love in the spotlight?
'A very enjoyable read with an unusual setting, a believable romance, main and secondary characters with depth, genealogy research and family secrets and intrigue.' Goodreads Reader Review
@bookstodon My #review of The Invisible Guardian (Baztan Trilogy #1) by Dolores Redondo (trans. Isabelle Kaufeler) has gone live! A pretty good mystery as far as I was concerned, though I wonder if the rough spots I encountered are a result of the translation rather than the author's writing.
"This is the first time I've read something by M.A. Grant. I was thoroughly entertained with this very well-written story. The plot is solid, filled with suspense, excitement, fast-paced action, danger, humor and romance."
AN ASPIRING THIEF OF MAGICAL jewels falls into a series of predicaments that leave her responsible for stopping a murder before it happens. Charming fantasy mystery with plenty of wit and action. B PLUS
It appears people no longer know how to operate one of these. Absolutely no one knows what it is anymore (probably for the last 5 years). #mystery#object
