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: Christmas, Cabernet, and Chaos (A Sally and Pearl Adventure, #2) by Wendy Day

Book Review Christmas, Cabernet, and Chaos by Wendy Day
Christmas, Cabernet, and Chaos (A Sally and Pearl Adventure, #2) by Wendy Day opens with Sally and her best friend Pearl going off to sing karaoke the night before Thanksgiving.  The next day, Sally learns that none of her children will be home for Christmas, she becomes depressed.  Shortly there after, Sally receives a phone call, and Pearl and her are off to spend the Christmas holidays with their friend Mike in the idyllic Christmas town of McKenzie Bridge where a local woman claims someone is trying to murder her.

I'd like to thank NetGalley for the free copy of Christmas, Cabernet, and Chaos (A Sally and Pearl Adventure, #2) by Wendy Day in exchange for my honest review.  The title of the novel caught my attention as I wanted a book centered around Christmas to read.  I was excited to learn that I had been approved to read this book.

When I requested to read this book, I didn't know it was the second book in a series, but that was okay as the author did a fabulous job at providing a quick synopsis of what happened in the previous book.  I enjoyed most of the characters, especially Sally and Mike.  I wasn't overly enthused with Pearl, but she did end up growing on me.

After not being in the Christmas spirit last year, I've been determined to have ALL the spirit this year, and Christmas, Cabernet, and Chaos has helped me with my Christmas spirit.  I hope it does the same for any one else that reads it.  This was a quick, fun, and entertaining read, and I look forward to reading the author's other books.  I gave Christmas, Cabernet, and Chaos (A Sally and Pearl Adventure, #2) by Wendy Day four out of five stars.
