Aunt Dimity's Death | Nancy Atherton
25 posts | 34 read | 26 to read
...Until the Dickensian law firm of Willis & Willis summons her to a reading of the woman's will. Down-on-her-luck Lori learns she's about to inherit a siazable estate--if she can discover the secret hidden in a treasure trove of letters in Dimity's English country cottage. What begins as a fairy tale becomes a mystery--and a ghost story--in an improbably cozy setting, as Aunt Dimity's indominable spirit leads Lori on an otherworldly quest to discover how, in this life, true love can conquer all.

Everything a cozy book ought to be!! Lori is left to discover the secrets of Aunt Dimity and Beth (her mother). With the help of her attorneys son (Bill Willis) Lori's discoveries allow her to help others and herself open up to love, forgiveness and joy. The first of a series, I have added the next to my TBR.

This is a really cute series. I just reread this first one in the series. A quick easy cozy read.

The tagged book is the start of the coziest cozy mystery series. They are short and sweet and a perfect little break between heavier stories.

1) I like both equally just depends on my mood.
2) Cozy are light with no real tension and usually an eccentric character or two. Crime novels are gritty with tension and usually a hard boiled character.

#Two4Tuesday. @TheSpineView Great question!

This is one of my all time favorite series. It is the coziest of cozy mysteries. They are short but delightful. She usually publishes one a year but is skipping 2020. 😟

If series are your thing, join @Andrew65 and post your favorites. I am always looking for a new series to dive into.

Andrew65 One series I still need to read. 4y

I really enjoyed the first book of this series. Lori grew up on stories of Aunt Dimity, never knowing she was real. Upon Dimity's death, Lori sets out to uncover a story that her mom never told. This isn't the typical cozy mystery, as there is no murder. There is however the ghost of Aunt Dimity. Will definitely continue this series. #cozyinthesun @ferskner @Librarybelle

This book was such a fanciful, warm, fun read! I have been reading a fairly intense book and Aunt Dimity was exactly the change that I needed. Full of fantastic characters and mystery - I would recommend.

I didn't hate this book.
But I couldn't suspend my disbelief when we got to the ghost part.
The romance felt a bit forced.
And the mystery wasn't that compelling to me.

Lori has been adrift since her mother‘s death. When she is summoned to a lawyer‘s office, she expects the worst. She is told her “Aunt Dimity”, a woman she has never met but who kept her supplied with wonderful stories throughout her childhood, has died and left her a small bequest. This is a cozy mystery and saccharinely sweet romance. If you are in the mood, it will warm the cockles of your cynical heart (as you shake your head, of course).

Something soothing after my last read. A young woman down on her luck comes into an inheritance across the pond. She just doesn‘t realize her benefactor has stayed around to meet her! Family secrets stretching back to WWII and a cute lawyer....

What better start to the new year than a sweet, cozy mystery? I loved this book so much. It was the right book at the right time. A story that leaves the reader satisfied, but still wanting to read more about the characters and slip back into their world again and again.

Years ago, I was crazy for this cozy mystery series. Nancy Atherton did a signing at the mystery book store I was managing, and used the cutest rabbit stamp as part of her signature. Aunt Dimity is a ghost, and she helps the main character solve mysteries using her journal. #SupernaturalBeings #Booktober

PurpleyPumpkin Love this series!💜 7y
Suzze @PurpleyPumpkin Yay! I was sure no one would know what I was talking about. 🐇🐇🐇 7y

I just finished reading Aunt Dimity's Death this evening. It was a strong cozy, not watered down at all. It had a solid story line, relatable characters, and left me wanting to read more. This was the first time I've ever been interested in whether or not characters had feelings for one another.
