'Murder Most Unladylike' is a quick and simple read. At least to me as an adult. I can think of several students who I would have recommended this to while I was teaching.

I loved this book: I loved the setting, I loved Hazel’s voice, I lov...

My issue with this book starts and ends with Daisy. As a very obvious Sherlock Holmes fan, I'm going to take a gander and guess that the author really enjoys Sherlock and not Elementary, because Elementary is a show about a steadfast partnership that might not have gotten off on the most perfect of ...

I adored the first book and I was hoping the second book would also be that. Especially since I often hate the second book, I also call it the "Second Book in a Series-Syndrome". Thank Lord this book didn't have that problem. At least not that much. I rated this book with 1 star less, mostly because...
