Welcome to Litsy!

Someone else described this as feeling like AI was fed scripts of Golden Girls and told to write a cozy mystery, and this is what came out. I 100% agree. It was just…not for me. I love the GG, but I couldn‘t do this one. I made it 100 pages, and was so tired of St Olaf wedding traditions. 😔

Rose is planning a wedding for a relative from St. Olaf, and when Dorothy‘s date to the wedding turns up dead, she becomes the prime suspect. This was just a good, silly time, and I loved it! I‘m not saying that the story was groundbreaking or anything, but I think the voices of the Girls were captured nicely. Lots of 80s nostalgia and references to things that actually happened on the show!

To say I‘m excited for this book is an understatement! I love all things Golden Girls and i just really hope this book captures their personalities! I have two more books on my TBR before i get to this one.

Silly, most definitely, but still full of nostalgic fun, I enjoyed this new cozy mystery featuring The Golden Girls. The dialogue rings pretty true to the characters‘ voices & I definitely laughed in a few spots! But there are a few anachronistic moments & the plot‘s not very shocking. I still overall had fun with this one and am curious to see if this series will continue on— I would keep going with it for sure!

I love the Golden Girls (I‘m a Dorothy, by the way). Of course I had to try this. While this does not quite capture the magic of the television show, it‘s close. And really, can anything capture it (I have the same feelings for the Murder, She Wrote book series)???

Dorothy is accused of murder, and Rose has to put the St Olaf spin on her niece‘s wedding. There‘s humor with that heartwarming touch of friendship and family. ⬇️⬇️⬇️

Thanks for the tag, @dabbe and @TheSpineView !

1. No…I file as early as possible. I even submitted my estimated 1st quarter tax for the 2025 tax season last week! Get it off my to do list and move on to the next item. 😂

2. I‘m reading so many books, but this one released today that features The Golden Girls conjures up nostalgia. And, a good word: cheesecake! #Two4Tuesday

A few months ago when I found out there was gonna be a Golden Girls cozy mystery, you better believe I preordered it! Can‘t wait to read it!

A sarcastic substitute teacher, a naive Midwestern airhead, a southern sexpot, and a ornery curmudgeon walk into a bar; rather, four 'Golden Girls' room together in a house in Miami and solve crazy crimes. That is the premise in this new fanfic homage to the popular 80's sitcom. During Rose's wedding planning for a relative, Dorothy's date for the event dies leading to a cozy mystery investigation.
