I thought this was a fun series of short mystery stories by some great authors. I have read some of the authors in this series, but it was my first introduction to others. Due to that, I enjoyed the opportunity to read these. I do have to say some of the stories were a bit more fun than others. My favorites were The Reunion Dinner, Crime of Fashion, and The Nosy Neighbor. I do wish that we got a bit more with some of the stories, but that is the downfall of short stories as a whole. That being said, this collection was a fun middle of the road collection. I thought all of them were great though. It was the perfect way to spend a nice cozy evening. Rated all together, I give them a 3/5 stars. 

Many thanks to NetGalley and the publishers for an advanced reading copy of this book. All opinions within this review are my own.
