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...

Murder at the Lemonberry Tea (Beacon Bakeshop, #6)
by Darci Hannah opens with Lindsey preparing for her best friend's family to stay with her in the lighthouse because they're on holiday to support Kennedy PR attempt for Lindsey's bakery to appear on a celebrity cooking show. When one of the people associated with the show turns up dead, Lindsey and Kennedy team up once again to investigate.

I'd like to thank NetGalley for the Advanced Readers Copy (ARC) of this cozy mystery that they gave me for free in exchange for my honest review. I've read at least one book in this series and enjoyed it, so I was very appreciative to be approved to read Murder at the Lemonberry Tea (Beacon Bakeshop, #6).

I really enjoyed most of the characters in this book, especially the reoccurring ones. Although I'm a cat person, I think Welly was one of my favorites, especially when he gets caught swimming in the lake when he isn't supposed to be. It gave me such a giggle. The only character I didn't care for initially was Vivi Lemonberry, but by the end of the book, I did feel a little sorry for her.

What I loved is that there were a lot of people who had motives, and it kept me guessing and wondering if the person I thought was the murderer was a correct guess. I was partially correct but not entirely. The person who actually committed the murder wasn't one I thought it would be.

Engaging, fun, and entertaining are words I'd use to describe Murder at the Lemonberry Tea (Beacon Bakeshop, #6). I plan on trying a couple of the recipes out at the end of the book. Five out of five stars.
