A great entertaining cozy mystery that keeps you guessing.
This is the newest adventure of Sue and Alan in Aspen Notch. It has a catchy fun title. I love how Kathleen combines sleuthing, family, friends and her garden shop into a story that begs you to keep reading til you are finished with the book. I read the book twice because I wanted to stay in Aspen Notch and not miss any of the fun and welcome the newest arrival. This book can be read as a standalone. However,I would recommend starting with the prequel and reading the series in order. Kathleen McKee is a wonderful author with several books published. Her books also have life lessons in them which have helped me. I highly recommend her work. Cheers to another cozy mystery!!!

Fantastic series.
The characters in all of the books in the set are so realistic it is amazing. I would love to meet Sue and Alan in reality. They are definitely the kind of people I want as friends. The story line in continuous through all the books, yet each episode is completely different from all the others. Kathleen mickey is a superb writer with a most unbelievably vivid imagination. Thank you for giving me a full week's worth of pleasure. (I was sick one day and read two of the books.)

Fun and clean mysteries
Managed to read all 10 books in a couple of weeks. (I do have obligations so I had to pause occasionally..Lol). They are light and capture your attention early. Read them in order to follow the family life.

loved the entire series
These stories are ones you can “crawl into” and “get away” I looked forward to each book and the “who done it” challenge.

Two Pigs and a Corpse is a good cozy mystery that keeps you turning pages!
I liked the plot and characters. Their interplay keeps the family alive and growing. The mystery casts a sense of unknown evil. Who will be struck by it? What changes will come about because of evil, and how will good combat the attack?
This is a book that deals gently with murder, police work, and relationships--in1cluding animals. Don't miss this Thanksgiving mystery!
Highly recommended!

Adieu
My final chapter with Aspen Notch! The plot got amazingly thin after a while in this installment. There’s just so many times the reader can hear about what the characters are having for dinner and how often they unpack and price orders for the garden shop! The earlier books were much better in terms of mystery but this one became tedious after a while.
