Typical Aurora Teagarden mystery - nothing special, nothing GREAT. I figured out the killer early on but I did enjoy the read overall. The primary reason that I love these books is that they are light, easy reads. I do like Aurora Teagarden and her journey throughout the books. These may be fluffy but I do enjoy them as a break from more literary books!

This was another entertaining read from the Aurora Teagarden series. None of the books in this series are all that plausible, and this one was no exception, but despite the author's insistence in previous books that Roe could never have kids, it didn't really bother me that she discovered she was pregnant before the end of this one. I like to disregard the middle books of the series because I couldn't stand Martin, so I love the idea of her living happily ever after with Robin Crusoe, who I felt was the better match from the outset. I am looking forward to finishing the series and seeing how things turn out for them.

If all the books in this series were like this one, I'm very glad I happened to pick up the last one. This book was kind of stupid and the ending was so completely ridiculous and simple that I almost can't take it. Having read all the Sookie Stackhouse books and knowing what a great writer Harris can be, I'm kind of confused by how silly this book was. Although, considering how crappy the Sookie series ending was, I guess I'm not surprised.

More about Aurora's attitudes towards marriage and fidelity (profound and conventional) as seen through the lens of her sister-in-law's more chaotic life and death. The role of the Uppity Women in affecting life in their small town comes up repeatedly.

Better than the last book, less complainy and more enjoyable.

Lots of stuff, really, that one has to willingly suspend disbelief over, but that tends to be the case with many a cosy mystery.

Anyway, this last book in the Aurora Teagarden series was neither outstandingly good nor particularly bad - having already read the first seven, I went into it with certain expectations, and more or less got what I expected, so a solid three stars it is.
