The Diva Runs out of Thyme

GIVEAWAY
RANDOM RETRO READ DAY!
DAVIS, KRISTA
THE DIVA RUNS OUT OF THYME

Few can compete with Natasha Smith when it comes to entertaining, but her childhood rival, Sophie Winston, certainly tries. Natasha may have stolen the spotlight, and Sophie's husband, but Sophie is determined to rob her of the prize for the Stupendous Stuffing Shakedown. She just needs the right ingredient.

But Sophie's search for the perfect turkey takes a basting when she stumbles across a corpse. And when the pokice find her name and phot inside the victim's car, Sophie will have to set her trussing aside to solve the murder, or she'll be serving up prison grub.

My Review:

published in 2008
Thanks to my public library for providing me with an audible version of this book.

Simply hilarious! Madcap mayhem, quirky characters you want to hug or strangle (her mother is a riot!) and a menagerie of pets that add to the chaos. This is the first book in the Domestic Diva Mystery series and it is sheer brilliance! And the mystery -- honestly everybody could have been the killer. I had so much fun leaping to conclusions as I tried to keep pace with Sophie's crazy Thanksgiving. Plus that annoying but oh so appealing detective made my toes curl! I'm giddy with delight over this new-to-me series. Can't wait to read more.

  7. I love a cozy and especially one that keeps me guessing. I am often cursed by figuring things out quickly, but it will never stop me from reading a cozy. Thanks!

    1. I don't mind if I figure things out ahead of the characters...then it's fun to be in the know and angsting over their blunders! But I love it when I can't figure the mystery out too. I just plain love cozies. Good luck, Kelly!
