May is Mystery Month and May 3rd was National Paranormal Day...and May 31, Angie Fox's new Southern Ghost Hunter book #11 comes out! In honor of these topics, I’m reviewing the Southern Ghost Hunters Mystery series by Angie Fox. In rare form for me, but helpful given my commute time, I am reviewing the Amazon Audible AND print versions of all of Angie Fox's series, books 1-10.

This month is National Garden Month. I’m excited for the chance to jump into the gardening subgenre of cozy mysteries. There are so many to pick from, but we've narrowed it down to one series. The Flower Shop Mystery series by Kate Collins has the distinction of being adapted into a Hallmark Movies & Mysteries series, with Brooke Shields as Abby Knight and Brennan Elliott as the romantic interest Marco Salvare, along with Beau Bridges as Abby’s dad Jeffrey. I'm reviewing the three Hallmark movies, and books #1, 3, and 4 that match the movie titles. You can request the movies through NC Cardinal, just like the books! www.nccardinal.org/eg/opac/record/11575048.
