I am on book 4 and am kind of addicted to the series right now! They all get better IMO.

This is one of those series that I had to read the last three all in a row, I couldn't put them down. Excellent!
I am plowing through them too Jennifer! Two to go!

It was excellent, Rebecca! I think I got Heidi and Jennifer hooked on them!

[book..."I enjoyed a Deadly Grind. The author who writes the Death and Taxes series lives in my area and is scheduled for a book signing in the next few weeks. I may try to read that one.
Zoe wrote: "My next cozy mysteries are: [book..."The Devereaux Dime store book was a pretty good read. Much better than some of her more recent Scumble River books. I liked DEADLY GRIND a lot, and thought the Fortune Teller book was just a bit better than okay. SCONES AND BONES was the book in this series that finally broke the camel's back for me and I quit them after it. The Cat Sitter series has been a favorite of mine and I rated the one you're considering 5-stars. And finally, the Death & Taxes series is great fun! Have enjoyed all of them!
Thanks to all the book pimps here I have the first Death & Taxes book up next. I really liked A Deadly Grind a lot.
Melodie wrote: "Zoe wrote: "My next cozy mysteries are: [bookcover:Scones & Bones|114..."Thank you for your comment and opinion, Melodie! I have read the first two books in the Scumble River series but I didn't like them. Hopefully this new series is better!

I've been on a Leslie Meier kick lately and today will be gong to the library to pick up

Just finished
after seeing so many of you talking about it. I really enjoyed it. Looking forward to reading the second book in the series. I'll either read
or
next.

Do you have to read Leslie Meier books in order? I have been thinking of reading some of hers but didn't really want to read them order since some of the holidays have already past. I also don't think my library has all the books available to download.

I don't think so. I've read some of her books and skipped around with all of them and never had any trouble following anything.
Melodie, I'm a vampire junkie also. I'll read almost anything if it has a vampire in it. Now I just have to pick it up from the library tomorrow and start reading! Can't wait!!!
Vicky wrote: "Do you have to read Leslie Meier books in order?

Other than Lucy's personal life -- her kids growing up, friends' lives, etc. -- I don't think there's much in the books that would matter from one book to the next.

Went to the library today and they didn't have any of these books. I guess I will have to wait til I can get to the bookstore! I was so disappointed!
Boo Rebecca! That stinks. I actually just got Fonduing Fathers at my library today.
Heidi (eternal optimist, well maybe not eternal) wrote: "Boo Rebecca! That stinks. I actually just got Fonduing Fathers at my library today."I am thinking of checking Amazon... I can sometimes find books in the first of series for pretty cheap. It is worth a try!
Can you get them through interlibrary loan? I get a ton of cozies that way.
I would really like to start
. Having been delaying it for months.

I try to read series books in order. I made a mistake years ago of trying to read Diane Mott Davidson books out of order. She kept mentioning something that happened in a previous book. It drove me nuts. So I try to read series books in order. I went ahead and checked out Chocolate Covered Murder. I am enjoying it so far. Gosh I have too many books on my Nook to read. I need a vacation.

Yeah, I think a lot of series DO need to be read in order, because they mention too much about things that happened in previous books. I don't remember that happening much in Leslie Meier's books though.
the next cozy mystery that i will be reading will be
Next up for me is
. Just a couple more and I'll be caught up with this series.
