This one ends the series for me. It turns out BOTH members of the couple are utter fools. I'm out. Doesn't help that the plots aren't particularly clever or creative.

A nice cozy mystery, engaging and entertaining.
I liked the plot and the style of writing.
The characters were not always likable, heroine included, and this made somehow hard to care about what was going on.
The mystery was ok, no plot hole, and it kept me guessing.
Recommended!

Finally the renovations have been completed on the Victorian mansion that is Windy Corner. Now literature professor Emily Cavanaugh can organise her first writers' retreat over the Christmas and New Year period.
But death is never far away, but who will be the victim and who the guilty party among all the suspects.
An enjoyable enough cozy mystery though I could not take to the main character. Also some of the guests' characters seemed to be a bit over the top, and therefore obvious.

Despite what the readout says, I've read this only once not twice. I just got the dates in the wrong place the first time. I've tried entering this book a few times since I started reading it, but I haven't been spending much time at my desktop, and the site's been messing up on my Fire tablet. Review to follow later, quite a few if I can ever get the energy.
