Initially,this cozy felt like a-so-so,but once I got into the book became a pick.An easy read, full of pumpkin recipes & cocktails.I don‘t like pumpkin anything so I wasn‘t about to try any of them,but for those love pumpkin I think the recipes would be a hit!The setting is Bar Harbor Maine,which is also why I chose this book-I love Acadia. The book‘s premise:Hayley,š”½

This was a fun cozy and had a lot of yummy pumpkin recipes to boot! There were pet costume contests, haunted houses, crazy ex-girlfriends, and a few tricks and treats.

1. Chuck Klosterman, David Sedaris...essayist with a sense of humor/one-of-a-kind perspective are a weakness, perhaps...
2. Birth of my daughter & it finally feels like fall (my favorite season š¨‚š¨šˇ)
3. Yes! Love scary movies (preferably psychological scary over gore-filled scary)
4. Shark?!
5. 72 (with a crisp autumnal morning)

Have a great weekend, everyone! #friyayintro

JackOBotts @MinDea I've seen Get Out & It Follows. Get Out was fantastic...what an amazing debut for Jordan Peele! It Follows was also good: I appreciated the underlying commentary (or what I saw as the commentary...need to check out Channel Zero...sounds sufficiently creepy! I recommend Hush (Netflix)...more gore, but absolutely terrifying, and pretty original concept! 7y

JackOBotts Thank you, @Texreader ! October has been good to me! š¤— 7y

Cinfhen I think your answer to number 2 tops all š’•š’•š’• 7y

JackOBotts @Cinfhen I have to agree! Thank you!The sleep deprivation is so worth it (plus now I can play around #litsy at all hours of the day...literally!) š¤—š´š 7y

Cinfhen Oh man...my youngest is almost 16 and I STILL remember those weeks....grab the sleep whenever u can š´š´š´ 7y

JackOBotts Thanks you @Booksandcooks! @Cinfhen I'm trying...snuck in a 30 minute "nap" this morning, for the win! ?? (edited) 7y

I love both pumpkin and apple! Cozy's ok but bring on the horror! Haunted House! Hot cocoa! Pumpkin patch because mazes freak me out! Bonfires! Football I guess. Go Bears! #falltimefavorites

BibliophileMomma Nothing to worry about in the mazes but those pesky corn kids. š±š¤£š¤£š± 7y

Meh. Too many inconsistencies and a bit of a clunky read.

I have never read a cozy type mystery, giving this one a shot as it's season appropriate. Along with buttermilk apple spice cake and tea.
