Puzzled 4 Murder review

Tari Hann

This is the fourteenth book in the Sophie Kimball Mysteries by husband and wife team J.C. Eaton better known as Ann Goldfarb and Jim Clapp. It’s always a fun time with Phee riding herd on her mom Harriet and Harriet’s friends, not to mention Streetman, the mischievous chiweenie! I just love Phee’s hilarious first person narrative with her own comments in italics LOL!

Puzzled 4 MurderPuzzled 4 Murder by J.C. Eaton
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The silly little chiweenie definitely caused his fair share of trouble but he did end up doing something pretty cool at the end. That little dog’s a Houdini when it comes to escaping his carrier. Poor Phee felt like she was herding cats once again trying to keep her mom and the book club ladies from getting into danger or trouble, whichever came first.

I always laugh a lot when reading in this series and this book was no exception, those book club ladies crack me up! After a crazy murder mystery that somehow tied into Nate and Marshall’s cold case they were looking into, the showdown was a good one and the ending was super satisfying. Maybe poor Phee’ll get a break—at least until the weather gets cooler lol.

Silent Nights Are Murder review

This is the ninth book and sadly, the finale of the Poppy McAllister Mysteries by Libby Klein. But I have it from a reliable source that it’s possible it could be revisited sometime. I absolutely love this wrap-up that one of my favorite series got and think the author did a fabulous job. There were extra doses of hilarity (LOTS of extra doses which I loved!), cuteness and just plain awww moments. And you’ve just never experienced Christmas in Cape May until you celebrate with Aunt Ginny!

Don’t miss this last in the series but do yourselves a favor and definitely read the entire series first. It’s honestly worth it to get the complete picture of characters, relationships, not to mention the total comedy scene as well. You won’t wanna miss one minute of any of the moments this series has to offer!

If I had time to reread, this series would be up there possibly first for me. If someone’s feeling sad, I can guarantee this series will bring a laugh or ten and make you feel tons better once you read about all of Poppy’s issues! But they’re always presented in a lighthearted and comical way, so it’s never anything too heavy. Poppy, Aunt Ginny, the Biddies and of course Gia and Henry will always remain among my most favorite cozy mystery characters! And who can forget Sir Figaro Newton! I didn’t know if I liked Fig much in the beginning, but now I’m crazy over that silly cat! (And…just don’t read when you’re hungry  because Poppy’s quite the chef!)

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

My most fave of all the books! There was so much going on that was absolutely hilarious, I was laughing practically the entire time I read. The ending was just perfect and I loved that all this happened at Christmastime. The mystery case was solved and everyone went on and had an amazing Christmas Eve and Day. I’d loved to’ve seen that Christmas village display inside the B&B, it sounded hysterical! I never guessed the culprit for that or for the main case itself, lotsa great intrigue which kept me reading.
