Reprinted Edition "A charming setting and likable cast. . .enjoyable reading." --Publishers Weekly Haunted-house parties and ghostly galas. . .grinning pumpkins, mayhem and murder. It's going to be one heck of a Halloween for Lucy Stone and Tinker's Cove. . . It's October in Maine, and everyone in Tinker's Cove is preparing for the annual Halloween festival. While Lucy Stone is whipping up orange-frosted cupcakes, recycling tutus for her daughters' Halloween costumes, helping her son with his pre-teen rebellion, and breast-feeding her brand-new bay, an arsonist is loose in Tinker's Cove. When the latest fire claims the life of the owner of the town's oldest house, arson turns into murder. . . While the townsfolk work to transform a dilapidated mansion into a haunted house for the All-Ghouls festival, the hunt for the culprit heats up. Trick-or-treat turns deadly as a little digging in all the wrong places puts Lucy too close to a shocking discovery that could send all her best-laid plans up in smoke. . . "Lucy Stone is an endearing sleuth." --Dorothy Cannell

Not the best #cozymystery I‘ve read. I think the narration was the main problem for me - it just wasn‘t great.
But I enjoyed the Halloween/fall setting! And I would try more books by this author.

Unbeknownst to me, Halloween Murder contains 2 books. Don't judge, it was a last minute #Scarathon2020 library ebook. Bonus is that book 1 is done and adds points to tomorrow's check in. #TeamSlaughter #October20in4 #OutstandingOctober @Clwojick @Bookgoil @Andrew65

10:45:51 is the 2 day total

In all fairness, I don't tend to like cozy mysteries. Usually, though, they don't go so far as to bug me. This one was pretty irritating. Not only was the MC's casual sleuthing completely unbelievable, but most of the characters were borderline annoying. The writing hasn't aged well, either.

Absolute $h*t!!! Seriously, not only was the story completely unbelievable... I mean, what frickin police department is just gonna go to some random stay at home mom's house to discuss an arson and murder investigation with her over frickin coffee!?! But it was also so full of judgmental, pretentious, smug bullshit. The pro-bullying and fat shaming was too much for my tastes. But hey, 12 points total for #teamslaughter #scarathlon
@Clwojick

madamereadsalot1 Pt breakdown: 5 for being about Halloween, 1 for black cover, 1 for a dead character, 1 for a pumpkin on cover, 1 for over 200 pages, 1 for part of a series, another 1 for Halloween theme, and 1 for participation 5y

Unless you‘re a big Cozy Mystery fan, I do not recommend this book. I only finished it because it fulfilled two challenge prompts #featuresaholiday #booked2018 and #pop18 #abookabouthalloween.

Cinfhen My Halloween book was awful too😖 5y
Mdargusch I kind of suspected it was @Cinfhen I‘m not sure why cozies have to be so bad sometimes. 5y
Cinfhen I agree; don‘t mean to be snarky but I really find all the cozies I‘ve read brainless junk🤤🙄I refuse to read any more 5y
Mdargusch Haha! @Cinfhen sometimes they‘re good if you need to read something quick. I thought this one was pretty good. 5y
