Review: A Lady’s Guide to Gossip and Murder (Countess of Harleigh Mystery #2) by Dianne Freeman
You all know how much I love a fun historical mystery and Kensington Publishing has a bevy of fabulous authors to choose from. And I have read a number of them and consistently enjoy many of their authors. So when this one came up for review, I was counting on Kensington Publishing to not let me down! This author is new to me and even though it’s the second in a series, it is only the second book so I hoped that I hadn’t missed too much by starting on book 2 rather than book 1. The cover of this book is so bright, cheerful, and eye-catching…..I almost forgot that…

Review: The Right Sort of Man (Sparks and Bainbridge Mystery #1) by Allison Montclair
I am always on the look out for new historical mysteries that I might like, especially ones with sassy heroines. I have my usual go to authors but often I find myself waiting on books from numerous favorite authors and I am itching to fill the gaps and find the next ‘it mystery series’. That’s what happened with this one. I already read the latest historic mysteries from my usual go to authors and found myself wondering—what now? This book appeared on my desk for review literally at just the right moment. It is a new mystery series set in the 1940s, just after the end of the war and…

Review: The Vanishing Man (Charles Lenox Mysteries 0.2) by Charles Finch
I have been a long time fan of the Charles Lenox mystery series. I believe I binge read the first three books and then had to wait for the next one to come out and when it did, it was in my Kindle on release day since I had it on pre-order months in advance! Charles Lenox has been a wonderfully entertaining detective and I adore so many of the mysteries in this series! Sadly I got sidetracked by other books and missed a couple in the middle, but I always came back to the series and found something to love in many of the books! When I saw that…

Review: Murder Once Removed (Ancestry Detective #1) by S.C. Perkins
I’ve read a lot of cozy mysteries and I love discovering new series that might end up being a long time favorite. The trick seems always be finding something new and different. This book is the first in a new series featuring Lucy, a genealogist. I had to pause and reread this particular part. I was very intrigued by the genealogist part and was curious to see how that played out in the mystery. My mom is really into genealogy and I have to say that it’s not the most exciting filed of study in my opinion, but I do love history and uncovering unique characters in family lineages is…

Review: Naughty in Nice (Royal Spyness #5) by Rhys Bowen
Slowly I am binging this entire series and I hope you have been following along with my reviews on each book. I have no stranger to Rhys Bowen’s books, but this series was one that just kept flying under my radar. My mom gifted me the first book in this series at least 4 times and I did give in and read the last book in the series—-first, like an idiot. But I decided to finally remedy the situation and started this series from the beginning. As I said, I am slowly binging the series so that I can be nice and caught up for the new book being released…

Review: Royal Blood (Royal Spyness #4) by Rhys Bowen
As promised, I have been making my way through the Royal Spyness Mystery series these last few weeks. I actually started this one at the end and then decided to go back and read the other books. There are 12 so far and I am sadly only on book 4. But I am making my way as fast as I can through the books and enjoying each one as I go. They are quick reads and delightfully light and yet entertaining enough to keep me reading into the late hours (especially on the weekends!). If you have been following along with my reviews of this series, then you know that…

Special Feature: A Veil Removed (Henrietta and Inspector Howard #4) by Michelle Cox
I started this series a few years ago when it first came out and I thought at that time that it was a promising new series that was a little off the beaten path. Since then every time that a new novel comes out, I always seem to be so booked out and can never fit in the latest book! But I want to make sure that you guys don’t miss out on another wonderful historical mystery! This book will be available on 4/30 so you have a few more days to get your preorders in and add this one to your TBR list! I included some links to purchase…

Review: An Artless Demise (Lady Darby Mystery #7) by Anna Lee Huber
Lady Darby has been a favorite heroine of mine for some time now. I only recently discovered the series a couple of years ago, but from the moment I started reading The Anatomist’s Wife, I was completely in love with her character. Reviewing this book was a no brainer. I have loved watching this series evolve and progress, shifting from mystery, to romantic suspense, and back to more mystery and I have loved every single book. Plus Huber is a wonderful writer with many of her books ranking highly on my recommended list! I have recommended all of her books to everyone I know and have loved seeing friends and…

Review: Royal Flush (Her Royal Spyness #3) by Rhys Bowen
My goal this spring is to get through this entire series before the next book is out this summer. I started with the last book in this series before I read any others so obviously I was more than a little out of the loop with the last book, but that didn’t make it ant less enjoyable and fun to read. But I felt like I was doing not only the author a disservice not reading the entire series, but I felt like I was doing myself a huge disservice. So I finally, finally finally, after years of having the first book forced upon me—-read the first book in the…

Review: Death of a New American (Jane Prescott #2) by Mariah Fredericks
If you have been following me for just about any amount of time, it’s pretty clear that I love historical mysteries. Obviously this is a huge genre with mystery novels coming out of every period to fit just about every interest. So when I am looking for a new historical mystery, I want to read something that is either ‘new’ or different, or has an outstanding main character that can relate to. When this series came up for review, I hadn’t heard a thing about it. In fact I was actually kind of surprised that I hadn’t heard anything about it since it’s set at the turn of the century…
