I shockingly didn’t read as many books as I thought I would this month, considering it’s summertime. But the ones I did read, I thoroughly enjoyed.
- A Botanist’s Guide to Society and Secrets by Kate Khavari
This is the third Saffron Everleigh Mystery; and it was worth the wait.

Little does Saffron know but she will end up with a powerful nemesis. - A Trace of Poison by Colleen Cambridge
Agatha Christie’s right hand woman, Phyllida Bright must figure out who murders the innocent village priest at a Murder Club Fete fundraiser. The case is complicated by the fact that it appears that another guest is actually the intended target. - Murder by Invitation Only by Colleen Cambridge
