I'm reading these Haines books because my life is stressful at the moment and I need a non-demanding distraction. These books are perfect.

It was an ok read. Not my favorite at times was a little absurd.

CNF. This was so bad and so irritating, it made me stop reading the series. One of the main premises is that a wealthy woman staying at a posh estate where she could consult with psychics, would need TWO maids to assist her. She likes her cat better than her son and appears bipolar when dealing with the hired detectives - grateful one second then bitchy the next. The plot was ridiculous and the book seemed tediously long before I quit reading. I have read all the others in this series and mostly enjoyed them, but it was as if this was written by a different author - very disappointing.

I figured out the killer two steps ahead of Sarah Booth and I felt like Tinkie didn't really get a lot to do in this one. Fast paced, fun and I really didn't see the twist at the end coming.

Bonefire of the vanities by Carolyn Haines (A Sara Booth Delaney mystery) (RB Digital audiobook loan) Sara and Tinkie go undercover in this mystery book at the request one of their friends in order to prove to one of her friends clients , that this Organization called the Hearts Desire is a fraud. Undercover as personal maids to their friends client, Tinkie and Sara are off on another adventure. I honestly didn’t like this one as well as the rest of them but It was still a decent read and I’m off to the next one
