Summary: True to Aunt Dimity
Review: Another fun Aunt Dimity mystery story. If you are looking for an Agatha Christie or Sherlock Holmes type mystery this is not for you. But if you want a good fun read with a little mystery and adventure this is a must. Fun and fast reading.
Lighthearted and happy story.

Summary: fun supernatural cozy
Review: Being the mother of four year old terror twins, the holidays wore out Lori Shepherd, who looks forward to the post Yuletide blues with elation. Needing time alone, Lori takes a solo hike in the nearby woods on a warm winter's day. Suddenly out of nowhere the weather changes and an underdressed Lori is caught in a blizzard with no chance of getting home. She finds shelter at Ladythorne Abbey, residence of the recently deceased maniac Lucasta DeClerke.At the Abbey, Lori is un-welcomed by the eerie caretaker, but also meets stranded American backpackers Jamie Macrae and Wendy Walker. It appears to Lori that Wendy plans to steal a valuable heirloom from their refuge. She also wonders about the agenda of the charming Jamie. However, it is the caretaker that truly frightens her. With spectral Aunt Dimity at her side, Lori tries to uncover the missing links that guiltily connect the threesome with the late Lucasta. The key to the Aunt Dimity supernatural cozies is the cast, not only the title character and her niece, but in SNOWBOUND, the four other players (including Lucasta). The mystery is a bit soft, but fans of the series will enjoy it anyway as Lori guided by Aunt Dimity finds her sanctuary not feeling safe as she is wary of the caretaker, concerned with a possible theft, and warding off a seducer. This is the usual fun tale in which the audience not only believes that Aunt Dimity exists, but would want their own Aunt Dimity to advice and guide when the snowball picks up momentum into an avalanche.

Summary: Charming Series....
Review: I love the Aunt Dimity books. They are one of the most charming and delightful series that I have read. The humor that is infused into each book is unlike any other writer. Nancy Atherton has a way of merging mystery and fantasy; mayhem and small English village from another time. Stuffed childhood toys with a will of their own seem perfectly part of one's life. Is this Dan Brown? No. But to me it's like reading an old friend.

Summary: I'm a Dimity convert
Review: I was initially very skeptical of this book, and indeed, the premise of the whole series. Ghost detectives? Come on. But as I read this book, both Lori and Aunt Dimity grew on me. The setting was gloriously rendered, and the narrative overall was detailed and believable, to the point where I'm having to hide my credit card to prevent purchasing all the others in the series.

Summary: This is not a mystery at all, but a stupid ghost story.
Review: Mystery buyers will be bilked. No murder, no crime. All "deductions" are really stupid and pointless. E.g., there is a set of jewelry in an old photo, therefore it must still be here somewhere sixty years later.
A ghost tells the heroine it is her destiny to find the jewels so they won't be stolen.
