The Diva Paints the Town by Krista Davis 

"The Diva Paints the Town" is number 3 in the "Domestic Diva" series of cozy mysteries. Sophie is helping to redecorate a deceased neighbor's mansion when she discovers a dead body. By the time the police arrive, the body has disappeared and the detective suspects Sophie of pulling a practical joke. Sophie and her friends (and frenemies) make a good team as they fix up the house and solve a decades old puzzle. I will definitely go back to read the previous books in this series. ~ Mary R.



Crimson Joy by Robert B. Parker

A killer leaves a red rose with his victim. The police arrest the killer, but Spencer knows it's not the right person because his girlfriend received a rose after the arrest. Fun, easy read. ~ Karen S.







"The Kingdom of Back" had a unique concept that mixed together music and fantasy. The book focuses on Mozart’s sister Nannerl, and her life of being a female composer during the 1700’s, her relationships with her prodigy brother Wolfgang and a mysterious magical creature called Hyacinth. The author’s descriptive world building behind the magical kingdom is very thoughtful and well written, but the plot was very predictable. I would recommend it as a light read to fans of music and fantasy. ~ Yucheng Z.


A melancholy novel that celebrates the bittersweet chapters of life.
~ Kathryn K.
