I enjoyed the book.
I read this book on my Kindle while traveling. It made the time go by faster in the plane, was easy to read, but I don’t think it was very realistic. I just can’t see taking a baby along when investigating a murder or any other crime. Most mothers would be more concerned about the welfare of their baby to put it in the danger that she found …
I really enjoyed the characters and after finishing looked for more books by the author.
good book for light reading!
Another of those cozy novels that move comfortably along with reasonable characterizations and few real surprises in the plot.
This is a cute story to just relax with.
Good for a light read
Really liked that she was so human. I could relate. Laugh out loud moments mixed in with suspense.
Great Read
I was surprised how this book turned out. I really like the author’s writing style. Good characters – a little far fetched, but lots of fun to read.
Love the Cozy Mysteries. This one was fun to read and took me away from some of the things going on in the world.
Wonderful series
Light reading, just for fun.
This was a bit unbelievable as the main character drags her newborn all over as she is trying to find a killer. Liked the characters didn’t like the plot line.
Great read for 3+ hour flight.
It was silly and shallow
This was such a fun read!!!!
Fun main character with lots of personality and energy.
Liked.
Good read!
