A late read for #CBBC 2023 Mixed feelings with this cozy mystery set in the 1958. The mystery was interesting but main character was so annoying in some way. Even when she was the one who resolved the mystery which is not a spoiler but an obvious comment, I didn‘t like the way she was treated by some of these men...and she just cried all the time or seemed not to understand the insult. Maybe was me but I couldn‘t stand this. 2.95/3? ⭐️

Thank you @Gissy for another fantastic #CBBC package. I especially love the skull 🖤

Finished this awhile ago and I‘m still not sure how I feel about it. Overall I enjoyed it, and several of the characters caught my attention. The MC went back and forth between annoying and not so I think that‘s where my hang up is.

@Pageturner1 the box came yesterday, thank you for the goodies!😁 #CBBC #coffeebeanbookclub

This is a fun, basic murder mystery set in a hotel in NYC in the 1950s. It's actually a pretty clever setting as the narrator is a recluse so she never leaves the fake hotel. It does have Agatha Christie vibes to some extent. I might not read another tbh.

Wrong era but my aunt's Armani statues provide a chic background in any case.

⭐️⭐️⭐️💫

This was an enjoyable and cute cozy mystery with endearing characters, a fun setting, and an Agatha Christie flair! 🎧

Loving this cute whodunnit

This November #Aardvark clue stumped me. But maybe this matches, even though it was released in October?

? = Socialite
? = Sounds like the mc has a dog because I saw a review that mentions her "dog walker"
? = It's a "cozy mystery" involving the theft of a painting and the murder of an artist
? = NYC

I went into this thinking this was an “historical” mystery (that‘s how it‘s listed), but in my opinion it‘s more of a “cozy”. And I‘ll preface this by saying I‘m not a cozy afficiando. Evelyn Elizabeth Grace Murphy is an heiress in 1958 Manhattan who lives in her father‘s luxury hotel. She suffers from bouts of agoraphobia as she discovered her murdered mother in the hotel alley as a young child. She and the bellhop (also her dog walker/romantic🔻

Frothy light fun!
