I really enjoyed this book and I loved all the characters. There were a few twists and turns in the plot and I didnt guess the murderer before the heroine did - which is always a good thing ;0)

Sending to the winner of the mystery & tea sweepstakes. CONGRATULATIONS!

Wow! I always wonder how they know that a book will be the first of a new series - what if it flops? This is "A Novel Idea Mystery" -book with the comment "Some people will do anything to get published..." Scary, as half my family has worked for publishers, did they realize they were in danger? On the other hand, all but one have published something, I wonder how many got killed for that??
Looking forward to reading this and sampling all the teas that came along. Thanks 3vie, this really looks my kind of book.

Making a mental note that this book goes up the slopes of Mnt.TBR as I have tagged Soozreader with it.

Courier Sannuli is coming to Helsinki during Easter, so will have to read before that. Have just began, but if this was a manuscript, it would get a thumbs up from me. However, I'm dead tired and will continue tomorrow. Zzzzzzzzz.....

Pic: Our neighbourhood bum died last summer and the corner he used to vacate was well-remembered afterwards. Everything from cigarettes and booze to flowers and kids' toys.

Finished!
A bit repetitive at times concerning the rugged man which I would have chased out with a broom (as any proper Easter witch would have done).
Here aspiring writers contact publishers directly, so if the story had happened here, it would have been in the corridors of Otava, Tammi or WSOY.
Happy Easter! I am writing this JE in a tram on my way to a meet-up of which I am half an hour late (I had to finish this book first).

This book is on its way to Soozreader BUT I just haaad to squeeze in to read it and as a proper bookcrosser also to journal it :)

Somehow in my mind Bentley turned out to be Meryl Streep in Devil wears Prada kind of a bad ass :'D

True cozy mystery. I liked it enough to want to read more of the series.

To Sooz as was the original plan 😄

Thank you very much for this wishlist book!
