Five Alarm Book Reviews | 15 May 2012
Aunt Dimity is clearly going to appeal to the already established fan base as it did for me, but if I were to have read this book without already being in love with the series, I don’t believe that I would have read another.

Reviewing the Evidence | 1 May 2012
This is the perfect series to read during the summer and even the winter. Pick up any of the books at any time because each can stand on its own and readers will not be lost if they start with the eighth book instead of the first.

Despite the lack of a murder, cozy fans will enjoy following the far from obvious clues in the effort to exonerate Mistress Meg.

How Mysterious! | 18 Jun 2012
I enjoyed the fact that it wasn’t exactly a murder mystery, although there’s definitely a mystery to solve, and that the village of Finch pulls together to protect one of its own, not once but twice.
