Marigolds for Malice by Bailey Catttrell, August 28, 2018, Berkley
Elliana Allbright is happy running her perfume shop, Scents & Nonsense, in Poppyville, California. And she's even happier when she can use her inherited abilities to infuse her perfumes with an extra special something that eases woes or solves problems for her customers. But she'll need those abilities and more when murder comes to town. (publisher)
Hitting the Books by Jenn McKinlay, September 11, 2018, Berkley. A hit and run, borrowed books, attempted murder are all mixed together in this Library Lover's Mystery.
I finished The Life Lucy Knew by Karma Brown, and am now interested in reading her other romances/contemporary fiction.
Currently reading from the library:
Less by Andrew Sean Greer is about a middle-aged, minor novelist whose lover has decided to marry someone else. How he copes by running away from the problems and the people and traveling the world.
You Were Always Mine by Nicole Baart is a thriller, about a husband's mysterious death and the wife's attempts to cope with the loss and raising her two children alone, one adopted.

I’m curious about Less because it won the Pulitzer. I’m not sure if I want to read it, though. I hope you like it!
ReplyDeleteAj @ Read All The Things!
I'm enjoying it so far. The character is quite entertaining.
DeleteI'm always glad to come back to your blog. Marigolds for Malice is the one I pick to like the most. I love perfume. I do need to find a really, really nice soft scent. I like marigolds too. I didn't have the chance to container grow any this year.
DeleteTea, I don't use perfume much, but like Happy by Clinique, as I'm allergic to stronger scents.
DeleteJenn McKinlay's cozies always look good to me. And You Were Always Mine looks like a promsing thriller!
ReplyDeleteIt's quite suspenseful so far!
DeleteThat first cover is so pretty it could be framed and hung on a wall; that looks like a corgi on it.
ReplyDeleteLovely summer colors.
DeleteThe Marigolds for Malice cover is awesome. :)
ReplyDeleteLove it too!
DeleteI've heard lots about Less, and I'm tempted to read it. I eagerly await your thoughts.
ReplyDeleteI'm enjoying it so far, Deb Nance. Just started but eager to see where the main character, a middle aged gay man, will go from here after losing a young lover and being on his own.
DeleteThose cozies covers are so cute, enjoy. I'm re-reading Stephen King this week. Have a nice week!
