I love the title to this cookbook! I am one of those people who through the week tend to do something simple and easy. Maybe not every night but most weeknights. The recipes in this book though changed how I thought about weeknight cooking. There are recipes for every meal from breakfast to dinner to…

Read and Buried by Eva Gates
I hadn’t read any of the previous book s in this series. I have to say having a library in a lighthouse sounds like a dream come true to me. Not to mention Charles the cat is awesome! The library is working on the foundation and getting repaired while reading Journey to the Center of…
The Farm Girl’s Guide to Preserving the Harvest by Ann Accetta-Scott
As someone who has never canned anything in her life I was excited about this book. I have always been more than a little intimated about trying this. My younger sister does it every year and she acts like it is no big deal. This book is the ideal tool for someone like me. I…
Death at Beacon Cottage by Betty Rowlands | Book Review
This is the first book of this series that I read and I have to say that I have enjoyed. So much so I am going to go back and read the others as well as the ones that follow. Sukey Reynolds (love the name) always wanted to be a detective. However, she got married…
The Pie Lady by Greta Isaac
I love to cook and I once had an old cookbook that had been found in the back of an antique store. This reminded me so much of that beloved book. One of the great things about this is that it is filled with stories along with the recipes. I loved the stories although there…
Ghost Trippin’ by Cherie Claire
This book is part of a series and I was really a little lost because I hadn’t read any of the previous books. There are things that happened in the previous books that I felt I needed a little more information about. It would have been great to get a little bit of an epilogue…
Murder in the Fens by Clare Chase
A murder mystery that kept me on my toes. I did not see who it turned out to be. Even though this was the fourth book in the series it is the first one I have read. It was so good! I am a huge Agatha Christie fan and let me tell you that Clare…
The Trial of Lizzie Borden by Cara Robertson
Like most people I knew of Lizzie Borden and the events surrounding her trial. I also had the same interest as most others. It intrigued me so selecting this book was easy. We all know the story and the rhyme. Lizzie Borden reported her father and step-mother had been killed. Rather violently killed. We’ve read…
Trouble on the Books by Essie Lang
Cozy mystery at its best. I wasn’t sure what to expect but loved this from beginning to end. REVIEW I loved this book so much. Shelby’s aunt has surgery and Shelby discovers that owns half of the bookshop. Shelby is managing the Blye Island location and going back and forth across the river from the…
REVIEW: Sweet Tea and Secrets by Joy Avon
It had been a while since I read a cozy mystery when I selected this book from NetGalley. In fact, I selected a couple of them that day and I have to say I was ready to shift gears a little in my reading. This is the second book in the A Book Tea Shop…
