    " A good mystery, little old fashion. The style of wrtiting reminded me of Agatha Christie's books - especially those of Miss Maple. However, it is light reading compare to Dame Christie as there is no "excitement". Well written book. Looking forward to reading 2nd book - A Bone to Pick. "

    " Quick easy to read murder mystery, the sort of book that doesn't require your brain in gear. Enjoyed the premise of the murders, and most of them I was aware of. Did feel this could be longer, the ending was very quick and felt a little flat, however I'll read the next to see what happens next. "

    " After reading the Sookie Stackhouse books and eating them up, I bought all of this series...all of them. Ug! I am slowly going through them- haven't picked one up now for at least half a year. This series is so boring. I just don't understand how she can hit home with one series and suck so bad on another. "

    " This is such a cute character! I think that the reason why I like Charlaine Harris' characters is because they are so relateable! I think that my fav so far is Roe, because she's a librarian!
