MY REVIEW
This latest installment in the Ghost of Granny Apples
Mystery series, is just as delightful as the titles before.
Returning “Granny” readers are going to love this latest
offering from author Sue Ann Jaffarian. If you haven’t read any of the other
books, but you’re a fan of para-cozies, and a fan of funny cozies, you’re going
to love THE GHOSTS OF MISTY HOLLOW. Ever watched the show, Ghost Whisperer? You
will for sure get the same sort of vibe when reading this book.
Ms. Jaffarian has created a wonderful series with
unforgettable characters. Granny the ghost being the most unforgettable of all.
And in THE GHOSTS OF MISTY HOLLOW, Granny Apples is at her sassiest, ghostly
best! Practically every word that comes out of her mouth cracks me up. She’d be
a lot of fun to have around. Well, maybe she’d be too much of a good thing in
real life. ;-)
Cover to cover great reading, you’ll find it hard to walk
away from this one for and length of time.

CRIME AND CATNAP
Book 3 in the Nick & Nora Mysteries
by T. C. LoTempio
Nick and Nora aren’t just pussyfooting around this time as they deal with a missing person’s case and murder.
While catering a gala for the Cruz Museum, Nora Charles agrees to look into the disappearance of director Violet Crenshaw’s niece, a case previously undertaken by her frisky feline friend Nick’s former owner, a private eye whose whereabouts are also currently unknown.
As Nora and her curious cat Nick pull at the string of clues, they begin to unravel a twisted tale of coded messages, theft, false identities, murder, and international espionage. Nora dares to hope that the labyrinth of leads will not only help them locate the missing young woman, but also solve the disappearance of the detective. That’s if Nora can stay alive long enough to find him...
INCLUDES DELICIOUS SANDWICH RECIPES

MY REVIEW
I’ve been a fan of this since the first book, MEOW IF IT”S
MURDER.
I’m so happy to have had the chance to once again spend time
with Nora Charles and her feline buddy, Nick. This duo knows how to take a bite
out of crime. And I’m sure Nick has no problem biting if he has to. For that
matter, I think Nora wouldn’t either.
Author T. C. LoTempio’s writing has a certain something that
grabs hold of the reader and won’t let go until the last page. As with books
one and two, CRIME AND CATNAP quickly pulled me into the story, and there I
stayed until I finished the last word. I will forgive Ms. LoTempio for keeping
me up past my bed time. It was worth it a hundred times over.
CRIME AND CATNIP was a cozy with a little more than your
normal element of suspense. With more than one mystery in play, Nora and Nick
had their hands, and paws full. This tale of secret codes, espionage, and
missing people will have you questioning everyone and everything.
Make sure to check out the
simple yet yummy sandwich recipes at the end of the book!
Both of these great titles are now
available for pre-order
and release
December 6!

ReplyDeleteGranny Apple books are delightful and so much more and this one sounds like fun but I know serious issues will come up. I had not heard of T.C. LoTiempo's books, I had to laugh when I saw "Nick and Nora Charles"! That alone would intrigue me enough to look further into the series and your recommendations always carry weight with me.
ReplyDeletethanks so much for the kind review of Crime and Catnip!
