Oscar and Emmy Foster Kittens was such a cute read! My girls are obsessed with kitties and really loved learning more about them. The book does a great job at balancing a sweet story along with helpful information about having kittens in the house and helping to take care of them. Really enjoyed reading it to my girls.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Glow in Loretta’s Garden is another hit by Lois Wickstrom. As always, my girls love the stories and being able to learn something new. They’re fascinated by fireflies so I knew this one would be a hit. I love reading her books to them and I love that we are all learning new things while we enjoy the read!

A Christmas Amish Courtship by Jennifer Spredemann

A Christmas Amish Courtship (Amish Courtship #3)A Christmas Amish Courtship by Jennifer Spredemann
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed A Christmas Amish Courtship! It is the 3rd book in the series, but did great as a stand alone. I had not read the previous two and had no issues with following the story line, but neither did the story get bogged down with details from the previous two. The characters were wonderful and I really liked learning more about the Amish culture while reading. Without giving any spoilers, I like that the author didn’t drag out the miscommunications. It seems that can happen a lot with other authors and it was refreshing to not have it happen here. Great read and will definitely catch up on the others.

Murky Murder by Hazel Smith – Review by Kat Mellon

Murky Murder (A Maid Ivy Cozy Mystery, #4)Murky Murder by Hazel Smith
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Murky Murder: An Utterly Addictive Cozy Murder Mystery (A Maid Ivy Cozy Mystery Book) was such a fun book! Seems odd to say that about a murder mystery, but it really was. Despite the title, the book was still rather lighthearted and fun to read. I loved the quirky group of women that work at the Hotel Lafontaine and the budding romance between Ivy and Mr. Humphrey. It is rather slow in the beginning but picks up speed and maintains throughout. I recommend and would read more by this author.
