What do you think about Chapters 1-5?

[Olde American Spirit]

These ladies have been cracking me up in Chapter one and two!!! SO funny. I can picture them, can you?

Just starting Chapter 3... FBI agent turned private investigator. What???

Getting good already!

(forgive me as I figure this 'group' thing out).

You're doing fine! 💗

You are too kind! I’m trying 🤓🥸

Hey, Grandma Susan. Glad you made it. Always my sweet cheerleader!
You’ll have to let me know what that year round book club would look like in your eyes. Maybe it’ll work out!
Have fun with those two books and get ready for some laughs with this one. 😅 Yes, the senior sleuths…. I’m SO here for it!

I just finished chapters 1-5 and the author has me hooked! The description of the passengers on this ship has me laughing out loud! The "marriage brokers" are going to be hilarious to follow and all the plans they put together. I was not expecting the twist of a FBI agent and a mysterious death so I'm here for it!
I agree with Grandma Susan, book club year round sounds great!

[Bethany]

I absolutely love it already! I’ve already highlighted several quotes. I need these ladies in my life 😂😂

[Anne (In Search of Wonder)]

I'm with Sandy - I was not expecting the murder mystery. so far I'm enjoying it. I loved the quote about Althea and her being from Louisiana. "The clocks move slower down there."

[Anne (In Search of Wonder)]

also I'm going to have to look into the viability of cruising as a retirement plan. that sounds like the life!

[Olde American Spirit]

Sandy, I agree. Had no idea about the 'extra' stuff! Glad no one told us. Will have to keep that to myself in the final review so others can discover it too!
YES, Bethany. All the hilarious quotes for us! There's something about older, plain-spoken women that I find engaging. And these ladies are a hoot in their own right.
I agree, Anne. When I saw that two of the ladies were from Louisiana, I smiled big. Southernisms are the best. hehe And, yes, who knew about this brilliant retirement plan - that is, for those who like the water that much!

[Olde American Spirit]

Yessssss. And it just gets better and better with the 'shipper gals.' Too funny! And a definite, Hallelu to it being, as you said, a sweet, clean romance, with a mystery to boot!
