August 2025 Books #3

A cozy mystery set in the 1930‘s where Clara inherited her uncle detective agency. I like Clara Vale character, well educated woman, likes fashion but down to earth. She has a dramatic mother who she ignores sometimes. The novel presents some issues women faced during that time which can be annoying today but we are still working in that equity. The story is funny, fast paced and the mystery is interesting. ⬇️

Gissy (Cont.) There are other interesting characters.

I read the first 2 books in the series first in order to read third one in the series which was part of #CBBC This series must be read in order. I will continue with this series. The fifth book will be release this month.

July 2025 Book #6

I enjoyed this book. Veronica Speedwell is an assertive, independent woman who will express herself in a direct and honest way. Not so much space to be too sensitive or sentimental. She will get involved in this investigation with someone…It was funny and fast read. 3.8/4⭐️

July 2025 Book #5

This was a gift from a friend of mine, because this is one of her favorite authors in paranormal romance. I think this is my first novel by this author. It was good but it didn‘t impress me. My friend hasn‘t read it yet she thought it was good start because was a stand alone but I clarified her that it is part of a trilogy. But I like the “six sense” or ability to experience premonitions through her dreams⬇️

Gissy (Cont.) Those dreams are not pleasant because they anre attached to a traumatic experience. There is romance which I would prefer this main character could be more assertive but let see what happens in second novel. Something happened that someone in the group is not who they seem to be. It was a little predictable at some point. Stella will have dreams connecting who that person is. Again, the motive why this person behaved in that way was⬇️ 2d
Gissy (Cont) unrealistic to me🤷🏽‍♀️But I‘m intrigued to see what is going to happen in book 2. This author has been recommended to me by different persons. Maybe this series was not the best to start with but is the shortest series I think. 3.5⭐️ 2d

April 2025 #Book 5 last book read that month.
This was for #CBBC I think the book sent was the second in the series but I wanted to read first book #1.
The typical cozy mystery. Here the mystery and plot was related with knitting 🧶 which I don‘t do but it was interesting. The murder was more violent I could say than the typical cozy stories I have read. I already read book #2. 3⭐️
