ARC Review: Small Town Drama
A review for a debut cozy mystery by Jess Connon. A Zoom with a View is a fun fast paced cozy mystery with a dynamic amateur sleuth. Leo is a lot of fun as she is smart and very detailed oriented. The small town feel of the story adds a lot of drama as well.
ARC Review: Layla Virtue #2
A review for the second book in the Layla Virtue cozy mystery series by Libby Klein. Gimme Shelter is just as fun as the first book in the series, Vice and Virtue. I love the characters and the mysteries are a lot of fun too.

This delightfully funny story will keep you guessing as to who done it, while cheering on the wonderful detective duo.
