Can't-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted here to spotlight and talk about the books we're excited about that we have yet to read. Generally they're books that have yet to be released as well. It's based on Waiting on Wednesday, hosted by the fabulous Jill at Breaking the Spine. Find out more here.
Seems like the Christmas and winter books are already getting release dates. This one is coming out in October and it looks really good. It's a brand new series. I love starting new cozy mystery series.
Synopsis from Goodreads:
As the Moonlight Magnolia Agency revisits old memories on Christmas Eve, Granny Reid takes the reins back thirty years to the 1980s--back when she went by Stella, everyone's hair was bigger, and sweaters were colorful disasters. But murder never went out of style . . .
Christmas has arrived in sleepy McGill, Georgia, but holiday cheer can't keep temperamental Stella Reid from swinging a rolling pin at anyone who crosses her bad side--and this season, there are plenty. First an anonymous grinch vandalizes a celebrated nativity display. Far worse, the scandalous Prissy Carr is found dead in an alley behind a tavern. With police puzzled over the murder, Stella decides to stir the local gossip pot for clues on the culprit's identity . . .
Turns out Prissy held a prominent spot on the naughty list, and suspects pile up like presents on Christmas morning. Unfortunately, the more progress Stella makes, the more fears she must confront. With a neighbor in peril and the futures of her beloved grandchildren at risk, Stella must somehow set everything straight and bring a cunning criminal to justice before December 25th .

Yes, I've seen a couple of Christmas mysteries that will release in October. Why not, right? The stores do it. LOL
ReplyDeleteOooh a new Christmas cozy. Looks fun. I read a few last year and since one didn't work for me, I'll need a holiday replacement. Maybe this one will be it!
ReplyDeleteI love Christmas themed mysteries! It makes for a nice break from the Christmas themed romances. Adding this one to my list.
ReplyDeleteIt's been a while since I read a cozy mystery, but I always enjoy them. I hope you love this one!
