Happy Reading!!!

I've got the newest Mattie Winston and books 2 & 3 in Mack's Bar series in The Pile!

I have read all of the Mattie Winston books which I like very much. Two of Allyson K Abbott are in my TBR list.

I had no idea that Beth Amos is also Annelise Ryan. I've had the first Mattie Winston audio book forever. I need to move it up in my pile.

I really like the Mattie Winston books!

I haven't read anything by this author before but have heard good things about the Mattie Winston series. I ordered the first book in each series from the library.

Just finished my first Mattie Winston book and loved it! Definitely won't be my last. I really liked Mattie's personality. Hopefully I'll get to Murder on the Rocks later this month, depending on if a good bingo category for it gets called.

Am just starting Murder on the Rocks, and did not realize until starting it that it is by a "local" (as in same state) author. Which will tick off another criteria in this year's "ultimate" challenge, as well as one for this month's mini.

Just finished Murder on the Rocks and really enjoyed it! The MCs extra-sensitivity adds a dimension to her character but is not overdone. Very good mystery - several suspects with plausible motives. Glad I read it.

Just finished Murder on the Rocks and it was another win! Really enjoyed the characters and the setting in this one. Looks like I have 2 new series to read now!

I've read my first book by this author, Murder on the Rocks, and I've really enjoyed it. I think I have a new series to read, too. ☺

I have both series on my TBR.
