If You've Got It, Haunt It was so much fun! I very new to Cozy Mysteries, so I'm just trying out different themes and thought vintage fashion would be a good one. Cookie Chanel owns a vintage boutique, and while shopping an estate sale, she realizes that her talents aren't limited to spotting good deals. She can see ghosts! Well, at least one ghost who happens to be the recently murdered owner of the estate. Charlotte knows she was murdered, and since Cookie has been the first person to be able to see her, she'll stop at nothing to get the fashionista's help in solving her case.
I absolutely adored Cookie and her passion for fashion! If You've Got It, Haunt It also stars a psychic cat named Wind Song. She wanders into Cookie's store and won't leave. Wind Song can also use Ouija boards and tarot cards to communicate, courtesy of Cookie's best friend, the occult expert, Heather. In fact, I really enjoyed the entire cast. Charlotte is one feisty ghost, and she certainly knows how to dress! Of course, there's also all of the murder suspects who were interesting and suspicious in their own ways.
I had a lot of fun playing along with If You've Got It, Haunt It. The mystery is quite straight forward, without many twist or turns, but it was still a fun ride. There are also vintage shopping tips and ideas for getting rid of ghosts at the start of each chapter, which I loved! I'm always happy to see little extras like that. I'll most definitely be picking up the next book to see what mystery is in store for Cookie and Wind Song!
