This is #9 in the Torie O'Shea mysteries. I'm moving right along in this series! I think there are eleven total, and I will be very sad when I finish the last one. I chatted with a regular patron recently who mentioned that she saw this on my GoodReads list and read #1 - and loved it. Torie O'Shea is a busy-body genealogist who solve mysteries in her small Missouri town.
Recommended to: cozy mystery lovers, genealogists, those just trying out the mystery genre, and 30-somethings with young kids who will sympathize with Torie O'Shea and laugh at her amateur - yet very smart - sleuthing.
Similar to: How about the Pizza Lovers Mysteries (also known as the Eleanor Swift mysteries) by Chris Cavender or maybe the Library Lover's Mysteries by Jenn McKinlay.

Best. Book. EVAH. I like most of John Green's books, but this is my favorite. Teenagers, with cancer, who fall in love. Sounds hideous, but it's funny, moving, emotional...all good things.
Recommended to: Mature teenagers and people of all ages who like emotional stories. I've recommended it to both of my sisters and plenty of co-workers.
Similar to: Going Bovine by Libba Bray or the movie 50/50 with Seth Rogen and Joseph Gordon-Levitt

This is the second book in the "Her Royal Spyness" series. They're very cute, cozy mysteries set in London in the 1930s. In this one, Lady Georgiana hosts a visiting princess who seems to attract trouble. She needs to solve a murder before the London police do in order to save the royal family from scandal.
Recommended to: Cozy mystery readers, chick-lit lovers, young 20-somethings.
