A Very Woodsy Murder review

This is the first book in a brand new series by cozy mystery author Ellen Byron, and like her other series, it’s sure to be a hit. Having worked in TV before and actually having written comedy shows according to her bio, Ms. Byron sure had lots to pull from to create an awesome character like Dee Stern. I can’t wait for the next book! Stoney the bear absolutely cracked me up. He’s smarter than he looks 😉

My Goodreads review

A Very Woodsy Murder by Ellen Byron
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was such a fun start for this new series! There were so many funny moments but some heartwarming ones as well. I got the biggest kick from good old Stoney the bear and how he was named. Stoney got the last word in too, lol and you’ll see what that was when you read this.

The showdown was good but quick and effective. It was great how Dee came up with whodunit and planned her killer confrontation ahead with law enforcement at least. And what a great ending!

I didn’t think too much of Serena’s character at first but I immediately loved Elmira’s character. Although both ladies proved to be amazing friends when everything was wrapped up. Oh and I can’t forget Dee’s dad—just imagining his funny voices he liked to do cracked me up! It’ll be interesting to see what adventure Dee and Jeff get into next!

I voluntarily read and reviewed an ARC of this book provided by Kensington Cozies via NetGalley, and my opinions are my own.
