Book Review: Bridal Shower Murder (Lucy Stone, #31) by Leslie Meier

Bridal Shower Murder (Lucy Stone, #31)  by Leslie Meier  opens with Lucy Stone rushing home to clean house for Zoe who is bringing home her boyfriend Chad. While there, Zoe and Chad announce their engagement but want to keep it a secret for a bit.  When a nosy busybody named Janice gets the best of Lucy, the mother of the bride blurts out Zoe's secret. Chaos ensues with a murder and an overdose. NetGalley, thank you for approving me to receive an Advanced Readers Copy (ARC) of Bridal Shower Murder .  I've come to love Leslie Meier's Lucy Stone cozy mystery series and know that I will automatically read any book in this series without reading the synopsis. I have to say that this was one of the best stories in the series for multiple reasons. The first reason is that Lucy's husband isn't quite so sexist, which is refreshing for a change. I dislike it when he acts like a caveman who expects Lucy to be a housewife and wait on him hand and foot. What really surprised me...

Book Review: Suspect in High Heels (High Heels Mysteries, #10) by Gemma Halliday

High Heels Mysteries #10 by Gemma Halliday
One of my favorite cozy mystery book series is Gemma Halliday's High Heels Mysteries. It originally caught my eye from an email I received from BookBub.com. The first five books could be bought in a bundle for the amount of 99 cents, and the synopsis included a description of the main character being a fashion designer for shoes. After reading the first book in the series, Spying in High Heels (High Heels Mysteries, #1), I was hooked. When I heard that the latest edition, Suspect in High Heels (High Heels Mysteries, #10), was coming out on October 1, 2019, I could hardly wait.

Suspect in High Heels (High Heels Mysteries, #10) exceeded my expectations. Both of the people I suspected of being the killer (one more than the other) were not the killer. Usually one of the people I suspect is correct, but I definitely was in the wrong this time. I love the main character, Maddie Springer, and how she always seems to get herself in trouble and that her husband is so forgiving of her getting so entangled in these cases. Although, he is never happy about it at the time.

I'm not sure what it is about this series, but Gemma Halliday always sucks me into these books. They are always an enjoyable read, and I always have trouble putting it down. Every time a new edition comes out in the High Heels Mysteries, I say it is my new favorite in the series, and I can honestly say that yet again with the latest installment. I never want this series to end!

If you're looking for a great book to read during your next vacation, then I definitely recommend Suspect in High Heels (High Heels Mysteries, #10) by Gemma Halliday. I gave it five out five stars.

Synopsis of Suspect in High Heels:  When a celebrity appraiser at the is found murdered at the "Antiques Extravaganza" that Maddie Springer is attending with her mother, Maddie finds her smack dab in the middle of the investigation when she is trying to clear her mother's good name of being accused of the death.
