Wonderful stories by a superb group of authors, you cannot go wrong with HAPPY HOMICIDES. It’s a must have collection for every mystery reader.
~Lisa K’s Book Reviews
This was a great book full of so many great stories we meet different people who are celebrating Christmas like Cara Mia Delgatto and her shop and how she helps someone with Christmas gifts…
~Community Bookstop
If you enjoy Christmas stories and mysteries, this anthology will be a great way for you to get into the holiday spirit.
~The Self Taught Cook
Each short story/novella will help get you in the mood for Christmas. There is a lot of variety here…definitely something for everyone.
~MysteriesEtc
Each story, though not a full length novel, was so well written it felt complete. That shows the talent of these authors, giving you a beginning, middle, and end, in a limited amount of words.
~FUONLYKNEW
There are 13 stories in this collection. Some of the authors were familiar to me and there series I read. Some of them I have never heard of before but I now want to read…
~readalot
This is a must read for anyone who loves holiday related mysteries. The short story format makes it easy for you to get a taste of several different authors and their mysteries. It would make a great stocking stuffer for any mystery lover.
~Booklady’s Booknotes
I’m not sure if I can pick out which one was my favorite because they were all good.
~Storeybook Reviews
Although I had read books by a few of the writers, this boxed set presented a great chance to try some new authors. And with so many well written and diverse stories to choose from, any mystery lover is likely to find all or many of the selections to his/her liking.
~Cassidy Salem Reads & Writes
There are several somethings for everyone in this collection. Personally I was blown away by each and every contribution. The combined talent of these authors is OFF THE CHARTS! Amazing!!!
~Laura’s Interests
Let’s just say there’s something for everyone here, from poisonings to stolen jewels, mob hits to dognappings and of course, a few murders topped off with a little romance. There’s even cookbook theft for people like Bubby who would commit murder over recipes.
