Can't Wait Wednesday - October 22nd






This meme is hosted by Tressa at Wishful Endings.



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.


This sounds really good.  I already added it to my TBR.









Synopsis from Goodreads:

First in a new cozy mystery series with a Jane Austen twist from Agatha Award winning author Rosemary Stevens!

When the local bottling plant closes, employment in Boring, Virginia dries up. The mayor is under pressure to accept an offer from Dale Casino Resorts to build a massive gambling complex. The prospect would bring jobs, but it would destroy the traditional, small-town life the community loves.

All seems lost until Kay Starling is inspired by her love of iconic author Jane Austen to reinvent Boring into Jane Austen Town! Together with her family, friends, and neighbors, Kay launches a Jane Austen Festival culminating in a grand Birthday Ball to honor the author’s 250th birthday and #PartyLikeIts1811.

But will the murder of the devious dancing master spoil their plans to save the town? With Detective Gordon focusing on shy Betsy Bell Ward, Kay vows to find the killer herself. Because it’s a truth universally acknowledged that every murder needs a determined sleuth.

Includes mouthwatering recipes including one from the Regency Era!

Publisher's This is a clean, wholesome, humorous mystery. Readers do not have to be familiar with all of Jane Austen's work to enjoy the story. For Janeites, there are Easter eggs included.
Human written.


Release Date: November 5, 2025

    Sounds good and such a cute cover. Of course, there is blood but I'm a bit twisted. Hope you love this one!
