I don't know that I'd purposely read another bundle especially since ebooks take me forever to get through. The title drew me in because I love books/bookstores and I work at a major winery but I was a bit confused since the bookstore served coffee and pastries but no wine? The MCs drank quite a bit of wine, though and one story was centered on a winery soooo..maybe that was it? Also, the bonus mystery was in no way related to the other 4. Not even a distant mention of a friend of a friend or relative. All in all, they were cozy stories that went down smooth enough.

For a Cozy Mystery, I would say that the Read Wine series is a good one. I enjoyed following the various characters throughout the series. Of course the main character Trixie Pristine was the star of the stories being the sleuth that she is. These books are very easy reads and perfect books for a day at the beach. The Bonus story was interesting and I liked it a lot. I enjoyed the main character and how she was making a life for herself after her divorce.

Could. Not. Even.
Read the first “book” although it was more like the next chapter was supposed to continue the story but someone made it into book two in the series.
I was irritated by the fact that the shop was supposed to be called “Read Wine”, a play on words, but it was written “Red Wine”. Every time! Like, what the heck?
Not reading on.
