Antique Auctions are Murder

 Antique Auctions are Murder is Poppy MacAllister #7 by Libby Klein.  If you enjoy cozy mysteries that have you laughing at the antics of the characters then this is a must-read series for you.   The relationship between Poppy and her Aunt Ginny is a riot and the stunts Ginny pulls with the Biddies is comical to say the least.  The actual mysteries in this series are well written as well.  This book is loaded with details relating to Antiques and auctions as the name implies.  You will also learn much about prize-winning gardens and the competition they dredge up amongst neighbors.  All in all this is a great fun read

Antique Auctions Are Murder by Libby Klein
My rating: 0 of 5 stars

Another great installment in the Poppy McAllister series. Aunt Ginny and the biddies are in the middle of a mess this time and Poppy cannot seem to stay out of the investigation despite her best efforts. The characters provide lots of humor and there is a building relationship with Gia that you definitely want to see succeed. The solution to the murder is quite unexpected and well written
