Hi Elaine,

Not a specific book. I just love reading the cozy mysteries and I couldn't get enough of them. So, I thought a challenge to meet fellow cozy readers would be fun.

I loved it! This is book #8 in the Belinda Lawrency mystery series. I read books #1-5 and enjoyed all of those. I still need to go back and read #6 and #7. I suggest reading from the beginning.
