Not of the quality of the others
I have read and enjoyed all of the books in this series prior to this one,
but I’m quite disappointed with “Mayhem and Music.”
I might be wrong, but this volume reads as if it was written in a hurry. Things
don’t mesh comfortably as they did in the earlier books.
It’s disappointing, as I have enjoyed the writing of Ms Grace in this series and
in another one of her many.
But, if this is an indication of the quality of the remaining books in this series,
I think I will give the rest of the series a pass.

Back to the usual easy, cozy mystery style. Perfect for an audio book.

Anyone seen Chester?
Also, the constant mind twirling about having a baby, her fears and constant ruminations about it are getting very old.
