The Village Library Demon-Hunting Society
The Village Library Demon-Hunting Society | C. M. Waggoner
A librarian with a knack for solving murders realizes there is something decidedly supernatural afoot in her little town in this cozy fantasy mystery. Librarian Sherry Pinkwhistle keeps finding bodiesand solving murders. But she's concerned by just how many killers she's had to track down in her quaint village. None of her neighbors seem surprised by the rising body count...but Sherry is becoming convinced that whatever has been causing these deaths is unnatural. When someone close to Sherry ends up dead, and her cat, Lord Thomas Crowell, becomes possessed by what seems to be an ancient demon, Sherry begins to think shes going to need to become an exorcist as well as an amateur sleuth. With the help of her town's new priest, and an assortment of friends who dub themselves the "Demon-Hunting Society," Sherry will have to solve the murder and get rid of a demon. This riotous mix of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Murder, She Wrote is a lesson for demons and murderers alike: Never mess with a librarian.

Friday night: a new book from @AmyG to read together, fresh tulips that my husband brought home, a gin&tonic made by husband, salt & vinegar chips ( best kind) and I think the snow has finally gone for good

AlaMich “Gone for good”? Girl, you are just asking for a blizzard! 😉 17h
MaGoose That sounds like a great evening 👍🧡 17h
mcctrish @AlaMich 🤣🤣🤣 I still have my snow tires on, I haven‘t completely lost it 17h

Cuilin Sounds lovely, enjoy. We‘re getting up to 5” of snow today. I‘m so done. 17h
MaGoose @AlaMich Yup, probably. 😁😆 The calendar says it's spring here in New Jersey, too. But we're getting overcast, raw, rain-filled 🌧 days since March 21st. We had warmer weather in February! 🙄 17h
AlaMich @MaGoose I live in Chicago so I get it. That‘s why I don‘t put away my down coat til May! 😂 17h
mcctrish @MaGoose @Cuilin I am afraid to look at weather projections. It was such a long, cold winter I wanted an early nice spring ( at least the days are longer) 17h
Aims42 What a perfect and tasty looking Friday night!! Salt & vinegar chips are my favorite too!! (edited) 17h
mcctrish @AlaMich I put away my biggest puffy coat but yard duty might have me yanking it out again #teacherlife 17h
AmyG Lovely! 🙌🏻❤️ 16h
mcctrish I feel bad @AmyG you are cooking up a storm and I‘m just lazing about 16h
Prairiegirl_reading I‘m so curious about that book!! 16h
mcctrish @Prairiegirl_reading so far it‘s giving cozy mystery vibes 15h
Mollyanna I live in Wisconsin and a friend just ran the gas out of his snow blower. I‘m expecting 8 inches of snow any day now. 😊. And total agreement… salt and vinegar chips are the best! 14h
mcctrish Oh @Mollyanna I hope that snow does not materialize 14h

This is a fun and surprising book, and I enjoyed the narrator as well.
What starts as a cozy library murder mystery quickly becomes a tale of demons, justice, and rude cats.
I love how the author made her story so many different levels, and the characters were very interesting.
4/5 read if you like cozy mysteries, Buffy, and/or books that take literary troupe in a whole different way than expected.

This book looked like a fun, light, cute read. But despite a couple of truly funny lines, I‘m afraid I thought it was silly and dumb. I really should have bailed.

I LOVED the first half of this, which was a welcome surprise because mysteries typically aren‘t my thing. Then, the election happened and I was suddenly less invested. That‘s also around when the mystery picked up. Your guess is as good as mine about whether my flagging enthusiasm was due to a change in the book or in the world.

What I can say, with certainty, is that C.M. Waggoner is incredibly funny. I‘ll definitely be reading more of her work!

This was a hoot. This gives you a feel for the story.

“” Of course,” Sheriff Brown said, and then slowly, deliberately started turning his head 280 degrees around on his neck … A second later he groaned and put both hands to his neck. “What the—did I just—“My neck—“”

And her cat is possessed by Thomas Cromwell!! Not very well written, but like popcorn, you just can‘t put it down.

I absolutely 😻 this #ahrs24 📦! You really went above and beyond @chasjjlee
Everything is more than perfect,
Did you make the book sleeve as well as the bookmark?!?! It is so pretty.
I need a new cover for my laptop for all these amazing stickers (I‘m a child and ❤️ stickers and magnets so much).

Light pick. Started out clever. The paranormal aspect didn't quite work with the rest of the story, in my opinion. If the pace were faster and the length a little shorter I might have enjoyed it more.

A cozy mystery with a murder-solving librarian in a town of citizens possessed by demons. This was too quirky and the ending too complicated . Thanks to Edelweiss and the publisher for an advance reader copy.
