I am reviewing a copy of A Catered Book Club Murder through Ke sing tonight Books and Netgalley:




Bernie and Libby Simmons are sisters who run a catering business in the upstate New York town they live in.  And now they are excited about providing delicious deserts for the local Mystery lovers Book Club.  But when fiction spills into a reality and the sisters find themselves investigating a suspicious death, it's up to them to figure out whodunit.





If one thing can be said about the endearingly predictable Margo Hemsley, it's that she always serves elaborate desserts at her mystery book club meetings.  Which makes everyone fear the worse when after she doesn’t pick up her desert order from Libby and Bernie, and then skips out on the monthly meeting.   The sisters can’t imagine Margo vanishing like the characters from her favorite Mystery novels, at least not willingly!



After the search ends in the discovery of a dead body Bernie and Libby agree to help the nine remaining book club members prove their friend was murdered. But a speed read through Margo's background reveals there was more to the victim than harmless hobbies and frumpy cardigans would suggest.  As the sleuth sisters dig up scandalous secrets about the book club members, they'll have to determine who was connected to Margo's shady dealings--and who sent her to an early grave.



If you are looking for a light hearted cozy to give you an escape from the crazy times we are living with, I’d recommend A Catered Book Club Murder!



Five out of five stars!



Happy Reading!
