I have to admit, I didn't know what to expect in this book. I'd accidentally picked up the third book in the series & read it first, but wasn't that overly impressed. Since I'd gotten this book at the same time, I went ahead & read it. I'm glad I gave the series a second chance. 
 The book follows mystery bookseller Tricia Miles as she tries to manage her own bookstore as well as try to figure out who exactly is leaving tons of nudist camp leaflets in her store. All in all, it's a semi-peaceful existence in a town where the main attraction is that all of the stores on Main Street are bookstores. It's about this point when she gets hit with a double whammy: her sister (which whom she doesn't exactly get along) comes into town for an extended visit & the grouchy owner of the town's cookbook book store is found dead. With the town sheriff accusing her of murder, Tricia has her hands full. 
 I honestly did like this book. It was cute & overall I really liked the characters. This is a nice little series that I'd recommend for a rainy day or a beach read. I liked that the main character actually did some sleuthing- something that is woefully unseen in many of today's "mystery" books. (Most of the books just have the clues fall into the hero's laps rather than have them look for clues.) 
 This series doesn't really bring a whole lot of new things to the table, but it does have one or two new little twists- I like the whole bookseller town idea. It's cute. My biggest problem with the book is that we aren't given that many reasons for things, such as Sheriff Adams' refusal to believe that anyone other than Tricia could be the murderer. (She had that one reason for not liking her, but it just didn't seem like enough of a reason to go on.) I just wish that there'd been a little more development in that area. 
 Still, this isn't a bad little book & I'll more than likely recommend it to people in my store who want a nice mystery to read. Fans of hard core stuff may not really get into this though- it's predominantly a fluffy little read.
