Midnight Snacks are Murder

This is the 2nd installment in teh Pappy McAllister series by Libby Klein.  This book was another engaging cozy mystery.  We find ourselves drawn further into the lives of Poppy and her Aunt Ginny.   We also get a bit more glimpses at the competitive attempts to win Poppy's attention by Tim and Gia.   This book felt like it had more comedic moments and we met a few new characters. while getting visits from most of the characters in the Class Reunions are Mulder book. 

if you  are looking for a fun and light cozy mystery with a bit of a romantic flair this is a great series to read.   I am looking forward to the next book in the series, Restaurant Weeks are Murder.


Midnight Snacks are Murder by Libby Klein
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Good follow up to the first book in the series. Poppy is still in Cape May and is living with Aunt Ginny. Trouble continues to find them at every turn. At least this time Poppy isn't the one accused of murder. The book continues to develop the characters and their relationships as introduced in the first mystery. This book has more comical scenes and sheds a bit more light on Poppy's past.

The book is able to be read independently of the first book in the series but the relationships are better understood if you read hte first installment prior to this book.
