Por la sinopsis, pensé que sería algo triste y divertido. Que Emilia intentaría ganarse el amor de William (su hijastro de cinco años) de forma honesta y que en el camino ella terminaría queriéndolo. Todo un cuento de hadas, digamos. Emilia no me gusta. No estoy juzgando, no me justifico en que e...
It was kind of fun to read a murder mystery where the investigator is a pregnant mom. Especially after all those books where the glamorous detective is out staking vampires until 2 am and then is awakened at 5 am by a werewolf trying to attack her and then stays up all day running around town inv...
A funny mystery to read in one sitting (I read it in a single nap!). I was pleasantly surprised by this book.

This particular book didn't entertain me much, and I was severely disappointed enough to the point where I have decided I will no longer continue on with the series after the next one (since I already own it).Waldman's The Cradle Robbers had Juliet investigating a case involving an infant disappe...
Ok, this book had an amusing cover that caught my eye in the new book section at the library, so I grabbed it. It's really what I'd call a fluff mystery, but unlike the other book I didn't like, I loved this one. Yes the main character is dealing with death (possible murder), but she is still gre...
I found this book while scanning the shelves at the local library and saw on the back jacket that author Elizabeth Stroud gave her recommendation. That was good enough for me to try it. What a great find! I loved this book and I would highly recommend it - a fantastic little read for a book grou...
