Best cozy mysteries I’ve read in a while

The second of this series I’ve read, and I love them! Great historical detail—like the asthma cigarettes—and I appreciate that the characters seem to behave as appropriate to the time period, rather than 21st century characters transported to the 1920s. Also that the detective is a reasonable person who isn’t constantly putting herself into ridiculous situations. The plotting is also intricate and twisty. Best cozy mysteries I’ve read in a while.

Clever storyline

I enjoyed the characters and the storyline. Olive is a realistic young lady for the times as is her friend l, Jasper. I like the way the author tells how she researched the story

Classic yet creative!

Narrator was wonderful. Story is intriguing and creative. I will for sure keep listening to this series!

Fun mystery! Reminds me of Agatha Christy.

I just adore Olive and her friends. The time being in the 1920’s is such a great period and the author does an amazing job staying true to the time. I think the series is truly one of my favorites!

So fun and cute and compelling

I loved the cadence of the story, and how everyone had their own little quirks. I’ve listened twice now.

Good story line

Happy to listen to this series. It keeps me interested and guessing. The narrator is excellent and am very happy with her.
