Jennifer, you had some good ones, but I have a soft spot for the Wicked Witches series so I'm choosing that one for you!

Wow, Suranjana, I haven't read any of these series. But I have read a couple of library and book-based series, so I'm picking the Booktown Mystery series by Lorna Barrett for you. Enjoy!

Sorry, late hours for answering 😔

I am still getting caught up on my sleep from the late night with my boy cat at the ER Vet about 48 hours ago.

Thank you Sharon. I haven't read them too!😉 But I do think I will enjoy any book centred mystery series.

[Anna Catharina]

Thanks a lot, Connie!
It's great to get back to Agatha & Co.

[Anna Catharina]

Dear Meg,
last month you've chosen for me, now it's my turn :)
I pick Catherine Bruns & Anne Marie Stoddard Aloha Lagoon series for you. A little bit sunshine in these cold and grey winter days.
Happy reading!

[Helen]

Hello Hilary,
I don't know any of your series, so I'm choosing the Black Cat Cafe series for you, as I always enjoy a cat mystery.

Thank you. I have a few of these. Now will just move then up to the top.

Thank you, Anna Catharina! Just got back home from that land of sunshine to the cold and grey so am happy to be back there (even in books).

[Gary]

Meg looks like you will get further ahead of me with the Aloha Lagoon books. New one comes out January 30.

Hi Marisa! I choose the Zoo series for you. Good luck and happy reading.

[Marisa]

Thank you very much, Angie! I've enjoyed the first book, I hope to enjoy these too.

[Jeanne]

Nell,
Is it too late for me to join???? Or I can choose my own and join for March. Thanks -- Jeanne

[Nell]

Jeanne -
Once pairs are chosen, it is too late to join the challenge for that month. Sorry that you missed it. Next month's challenge will open on the 15th. Please join us again then.

[Jennifer]

Started my first pick and Aunt Tillie is front and center in it -- SA-WEET!

[Jennifer]

Finished my first pick and almost finished with the second: . I'm closing in on being caught up with this series. :)

This is a fun series!

[Jennifer]

True that, Meg! Finished #2 and started a third. What the heck.

[Meg]

Have completed my first book for the challenge: Death of the Big Kahuna

Second one coming soon!

I missed this post, Gary, and I apologize! I had downloaded the latest in the series by Beth Prentice, and really hope to get to it before too much time passes. With all my challenges, and an unending TBR, sometimes books get buried for awhile.

[Gary]

I have taken a brief break from challenges so I can read some longer books. Trying to get back into Robert Jordan's Fires of Heaven

[Helen]

Finished my first book, on 5th February, but forgot to post it here.
Halfway through the second.

[Meg]

Have completed my second of the series, Bikinis Bloodshed. Looking forward to March challenge!

[Gary]

How were they, Meg?

[Meg]

I liked the first one a lot (Death...Big Kahuna). The second one (Bikinis...) was very good (I gave it 3.5).

[Jennifer]

Started and discovered that one of my other remaining two in this series is one I've already read -- so after I finish this i have one left and I'm caught up.

[Anna Catharina]

I finished my first February book A Spoonful of Poison by M.C. Beaton. The Agatha Raisin series is one of my favourite series but this book was a little bit boring and slow reading. I hope the next one will be better.

[Hilary (A Wytch's Book Review), Co-Moderator, Featured Series]

Finally finished my first book for the month RaspBuried Tort by Lyndsey Cole and I jumped straight in to the 2nd one :D

[Cynthia]

Finished my first book, All Fudged Up, Pretty sweet and very fluffy. Honestly didn't find much substance the in crime/plot/mystery.

[Hilary (A Wytch's Book Review), Co-Moderator, Featured Series]

Woo hoo! Just finished PoisonBuried Punch - thank you Helen for picking these for me this month :D

[Jennifer]

Finished on audio today. Now I need to finish and I'll be completely caught up on this series.

Until March 6th. Sigh.

[Susan]

Morning all
I have finished my two gaslight mysteries and in good time too.

[Barbara]

I finished both of my books for this month from the Mainely Needlepoint series by Lea Wait. I really enjoyed them both. This is turning into a really good series!
and .

[Cynthia]

I finished my second book, To Fudge or Not to Fudge . Sweet and fluffy like the first.

[Meg]

Congrats all finishers!

[Helen]

I've finished my second, .
I'm still reserving judgment on this series. I'll probably try another, to see how the characters progress.

[Jess]

Finally finished my first book, Gin & Daggers by Jessica Fletcher. Cozy reading, it was. I enjoyed it and moving to the second one!

[Suranjana]

Finished the two books just in time, Murder Is Binding and Bookmarked For Death by Lorna Barrett. 🎉🎉

[Jess]

Finished my second one as well, A Deadly Judgment by Jessica Fletcher, though late by one day.

[Meg]

Congrats, Jess and Suranjana!

[Suranjana]

Thank you Meg. 😀
