Well, I didn't think I'd be able to refrain from immediately picking up the next book, but I'm a bit surprised by how quickly I devoured it.  Almost as good as the first one, though the action got a little bit over the top.  I found the premise believable, but the number of times Allison, the MC, found herself in peril stretched the boundaries of believability, even for a cozy.  Not cozy peril either: she's shot, she's stabbed, she's kidnapped ... her insurance rates must be hell.

Still, it obviously kept me riveted.  I miss mysteries like this; I know they're still out there, but there just harder to find, which makes me all the happier that I can revisit the keepers on my shelves from time to time.

I have the rest of the series on my shelves too, but I'm going to try to hold off starting #3 so I can get some Halloween Bingo reading in.  We'll see how long that lasts.
