Masking for Trouble

 Masking for Trouble is the 2nd book in the Costume Shop series by Diane Vallere.  I enjoy reading about the quirky character Margo and her affinity for dressing in character and costumes.  This story highlights the struggles Margo is facing as she transitions into her role as the manager of her family's costume store.  This book is perfect for those who enjoy small town stories and particularly if you like Halloween.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Enjoyable cozy especially for those who love costumes and Halloween. Margo is a likeable character who is unsure of her capabilities and thus has doubt. She is growing into her role as shop many but still has trouble defining boundaries in other aspects of her life. Her independence gets her mixed up in another murder in Proper City. This time she has trouble determining who’s guilty until it’s almost too late. The story is a great mystery with some character growth and development of various relationships thrown in to Round it out.
