by Charlaine Harris
Another solid installment in the always charming Aurora Teagarden series by Charlaine Harris. Last Scene Alive finds a movie crew coming to Lawrenceton to film a miniseries version of Whimsical Murders. Written by Robin Crusoe (yes, that's his name), Whimsical Murders is the true crime telling of ...
Aurora Teagarden has never really got over the serial killer that she helped put away. Now she is going to be on the silver screen. The story that Robin (her ex) wrote is now going to be filmed, with her stepson Barrett having a starring role. When Celia, Robin's current squeeze, who's playing ...
The previous book in this series was so sad and awful, I'm not quite sure why I continued on; I guess I didn't like leaving the main character on such a depressing note.

Anyway, this one was more like Roe and her fun side. The naughty librarian scene was hilarious. I was ...

She's starting to accept her new life as a w...
Roe (Aurora) is delightful and funny. She even looks kindof funny with lots of style though.How she gets into the stuff she gets into is something to gossip about. My girlfriend told me recently I should just make yo-yos (a quilting project) and stay out of trouble. That made me think of Roe. Sh...
