Wow!!! We just took a leap forward in our reading experience. I’m hoping that this author continues to develop and reveal herself as she seems to be doing. This series is really good!! I could not have been more surprised at the ending-wow!!!
I love this series!
This is actually the first book in the series I have read and I can honestly say I am addicted and will have to go back and read the first 4 as this was a fantastic read, I loved the characters, the plot and twists keep you glued to the page as well as leaving you guessing who the killer is until the very end. I can’t wait to learn more about Karis, Peggy, Lorrie and Seb!
Another great book by author April Fernsby. Sisters Erin and Karis are lovely characters, along with Peggy, Robbie and Seb. Enjoyable quick read
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
Cute Psychic Cozy Mystery
This is a short and sweet cozy mystery. Our heroine is a psychic who has visions about murders and other crimes as well as other interactions that are related to the crimes. The story is rather sweet and simple. This is a short, novella length story that doesn’t have much room for any sort of deep examination into anything. There is enough background in this book to make the reader feel like they have missed nothing in any of the other episodes; it stands alone quite well. This would be a good lunch time book to read. I received this book for free and this is my honest review.
The Cross Stitch Puzzle (A Psychic Cafe Mystery Book 5) by April Fernsby is a book I requested from BookSprout and the review is voluntary. I enjoy this clean,mystery series that has a slight paranormal theme to it. The main character gets glimpses of visions or psychic feelings. It is fun to try to figure out who-done-it before the big reveal! Lol! I am never right! Great characters, plot, and clues.
This is the first book I’ve read in the Psychic Cafe series, but it won’t be the last. It read well as a stand-alone. It is skillfully written and fast paced. It was an enjoyable read and I’m looking forward to future books in the series. I received this book free and chose to make a voluntary, unbiased review.
Psychic Cafe Mysteries Series:
Psychic Cafe Mysteries Box Set 1 – This box set consists of the first four books in the Psychic Cafe Series. Where one book ends the next picks up the continuous storylines with each adding a new plot for that book. The characters were interesting; some could be considered annoying at times. Others were good in their supporting roles. 4*
A Deadly Delivery #1 – This is my first read by this author and I was surprised that it was good. The storylines were interesting and the characters were good. There was enough intrigue to keep the reader interested in this quickly read story. 4*
A Fatal Wedding #2 -This book picks up where the first book ends. Again, the storylines were interesting. The characters are growing into their roles. Erin got on my nerves with her lack of caring for herself with all those miscarriages since she’s pregnant again. Peggy is a good support character with even more personality in this book; she’s funny and a snoop, and a second mum. 4*
Tea and Murder #3 – The storylines are interesting and build toward the future. Karis and Seb are finally at ease with each other, but the past butts in again. Erin is still her silly self refusing to take better care of herself. Peggy rocks and is more of main character than Erin, which I like better since P is bright and lively and E is anxiety in motion. A good mystery with an unexpected twist. 4*
The Knitting Pattern Mystery #4 – Blast to the past, 1958. This is a well put together read. The storylines mesh well with a thread going back to 1958, as some of the others come to fruit. Good characters, although this time I found Peggy a pain here and there, bless her heart. Erin did well, not her usual careless self. The just friends are getting closer and everyone knows it, except them of course. 4*
Psychic Cafe Mysteries Box Set 1 end.
The Cross Stitch Puzzle #5 – Picks up a few weeks after Knitting ended. The storylines are full of second chances, theft and murder, and cakes. The characters are interesting, even the nasty one. Peggy, bless her heart, kicks up her fascination with investigating the thefts and murder to Seb’s dismay and concern for both her and Karis. There is a good twist or two. I think book compares better than Knitting, which was still interesting. I contacted the author to review her books and received this book through Booksprout. 4*
