Paper Cuts

Secret, Book, & Scone Society, Book 6

De: Ellery Adams

Narrado por: Cris Dukehart

The New York Times bestselling author returns with a mystery with a touch of magical realism and a strong, female bookstore owner and bibliotherapist at its heart.

Miracle Springs, North Carolina, is famed for its healing springs. But bookstore owner Nora Pennington has a tendency to land in a different kind of hot water. Though she loves to practice bibliotherapy by finding the perfect books for her customers while listening to their secrets, she also likes to bury her nose in the occasional local crime . . .

Nora escaped her past a decade ago. So it feels like a visit from another world when Kelly Walsh—the woman her ex-husband left her for—walks through the door of Miracle Books along with her son, a sweet, serious boy with a talent for origami. Kelly hasn't come to gloat, though. As it turns out, she's been dumped too. She's also terribly ill, and all she wants from Nora is forgiveness.

Shockingly, however, this woman who's been the victim of so much misfortune is about to become a murder victim. Who would do such a thing? Certainly not Nora, but that doesn't stop the gossip and suspicion—especially after Kelly's brother claims that he saw the two women arguing.

In seeking justice for Kelly, The Secret, Book, and Scone Society joins forces with the sheriff's department, but they've barely begun their probe when life throws another wrench. After serving a twenty-year sentence, Estella's father returns to Miracle Springs. And when his past comes back to haunt him, it might be more than the four friends can handle.

"Red herrings abound along with plenty of tips on choosing books."—Kirkus Reviews

A lot of Action to Follow

I enjoyed listening to and re-visiting with familiar and worthy characters. There is a lot that happens to Nora, as well as Estella and June. After at least a decade Nora is forced to interact with her ex-husband and all the chaos he brings. There are several new characters who are welcome editions to Miracle Springs, and whom I hope we will get to know better in future volumes.
It’s best to listen to /read the books in sequence in order to follow the progression of events. I would love to meet all these characters and visit their town.
Looking forward to the next book. 📚 😊

This book is therapeutic.

I've enjoyed this series so much. The characters are so relatable. I've learned from them, cried with them, and missed them at the end of the book. I wish I could read it for the first time again. The story keeps evolving and keeps you locked in.
