Murder in Bloom by Rosie Sandler

Hello my cozy friends,

Today I am reviewing "Murder in Bloom” the third instalment in The Gardener Mystery series by Rosie Sandler set across England.  This time we are in picturesque Devon.

Murder is in full bloom, but can Steph and her sidekick Mouse weed out the killer?

It's an invitation Steph can't refuse when she's handpicked to compete at the prestigious National Trust property Coleton Fishacre. With the country's top garden designers as rivals and a stunning historic estate for inspiration, it feels like a dream come true.

But things quickly turn thorny when the youngest competitor falls mysteriously ill and Steph suspects foul play. Her fears are confirmed when a scream echoes through the gardens, leading her to the horrific sight of a dead body at the foot of the cliff.

With her trusty dog Mouse by her side, Steph's determined not to let the culprit slip through the cracks. Uncovering the truth in a garden full of suspects is no easy task, but Steph must trim away the lies before the murderer prunes the competition - for good!

I enjoyed this story. I really like the bond between Steph and Mouse it just felt real, we all want to think our four legged friends understand us and would protect us from harm. There is a LOT of plant speak in the stories but it won’t distract from the story.

The mystery is interesting and well plotted, and had plenty of twists to keep engaged right to the very end.  I kept guessing and second-guessing myself but I was right on who the killer was.     

I recommend this book to all my cozy lover friends. I can’t wait for book four!

A Victim at Valentine's by Ellie Alexander

Hello my cozy friends, 

Today I am reviewing A Victim at Valentine's by Ellie Alexander the 5th instalment in the "A Secret Bookcase Mystery" series.   

In the cozy town of Redwood Grove, Annie Murray’s Valentine’s Day plans take a sinister turn when a beloved pillar of the local community is found dead at her Agatha Christie-inspired bookshop.

As Annie assists the lead detective in unraveling the mystery, she quickly identifies a host of likely suspects – from an oddball psychic, to a professional matchmaker, to a rival bookseller – each with a worryingly plausible motive.

With her keen eye for detail, soon Annie suspects there may be connections to the decade-old tragedy of her best friend’s death, which still haunts her. Putting her own Valentine’s Day plans with the irresistible Liam on hold, Annie must solve the crime – before she ends up on a hot date with a killer.

This charming and utterly addictive cozy mystery will keep you guessing until the very end. Fans of Tonya Kappes, Lauren Elliott and Ellery Adams will love this murder mystery with a dash of romance.

I loved returning to the charming town of Redwood Grove and the Secret Bookcase bookstore.  In this instalment Annie is hosting a matchmaking event at the bookstore, but then a beloved pillar of the local community is found dead …

It was entertaining, full of twists and turns and I didn’t completely guess whodunnit until Annie did..  
Overall, I'm thoroughly invested in this series and excited to see where the author takes these endearing characters next!

I highly recommend this series to all my cozy loving friends and I can’t wait for book 6 to come out!
