I‘m about 30 pages in, and honestly…it‘s a little lackluster so far. Molly‘s characterization seems overly simple to me in this one, and the same descriptions have already been used multiple times. Am I just being a Scrooge, or is this one just not quite hitting for others, too? #themistletoemystery #nitaprose #mollythemaid

Librarybelle I agree completely with you on this one. I gave it a so-so rating. 3w
actualdisneyprincess @Librarybelle like. I just…don‘t care. 😬 and it‘s so transparent what the “mystery” is - unless it‘s a massive red herring, but I doubt it. 🤷🏻‍♀️ 3w
Librarybelle Totally understand and had the same thoughts going through the book. 3w

When I think of Molly the Maid, I think of a mystery. Nita Prose did a twist with ' The Mistletoe Mystery'. A mystery with a romantic twist at Christmas Time.

There's not a lot I can say about 'The Mistletoe Mystery ' without giving things away. I will say that Molly is head maid at the Regency Hotel still. Prose still makes her lovable and is really developing her. You will have to get the book when it hits bookshelves ⬇️

MonicaLoves2Read in October to find out more.

Tentative Publication Date: October 1, 2024

😊Happy Reading😊

The Mystery Guest | Nita Prose

I always wonder if an authors second book is going to live up to their first. In the case of The Mystery Guest, Prose's second book, does live up to her first The Maid.

In The Mystery Guest, we are reunited with Molly, the maid. She is now head maid and takes her job seriously. While training Lily, a new maid, a guest of the Regency is murdered. Molly is thrust into the middle of the investigation by her friend, Angela. Of course, there ⬇️

MonicaLoves2Read are times when Molly is misunderstood and she misunderstands.

Prose did a wonderful job in character development. Molly grew a lot, but the biggest growth came from Detective Stark. I love Molly. She is clearly the underdog most of the time, but she never gives up. Prose also expanded on the series, and left room for another book or two, by a couple of bombshells. There is a dual timeline in The Mystery Guest, but it works great and gives some info on one bombshell. I look forward to reading more about Molly and seeing where Prose takes all the characters.

If you haven't read the first book, The Maid, I would recommend you do before reading, The Mystery Guest. That way you want be lost, because this book builds on the first.

Here are my May reads.
The Secret Bridesmaid was my favorite out of all of them.
Love the Virgin River series though!

I have no words to describe this book. It‘s a fun and fast read and you find that the main character is quirky, naive and likable. Two thirds through the book, omg!!!! I can see why there‘s a movie already in the making. Good job Nita, good job. I applaud you 👏🏻 👏🏻👏🏻 #themaid #nitaprose #goodread #soontobemovie #mustread

LOVED this book and Molly.

How could you not love Molly?

THE MAID is a delight to read simply because Molly is someone you want to take under your wing and protect.

An amazing debut that will lift your spirits!! 5/5
