About OLIVE AND LET DIE: The second Greek to Me Mystery from the author of FETA ATTRACTION As manager of the Bonaparte House, a historic landmark and Greek restaurant in upstate New York, Georgie Nikolopatos knows her local legends—and her traditional Greek recipes are to die for. Between her soon-to-be ex-husband Spiro coming out of the closet and her budding romance with Captain Jack Conway, Georgie’s life is beginning to feel like a soap opera. And that’s before a surprise visit from her estranged mother Shirley, better known as soap star Melanie Ashley. But the dramatic family reunion takes a chilling turn when another long-lost relative turns up dead. Just outside Spiro’s new restaurant, Georgie and Melanie find the body of Doreen Webber—a cousin Georgie never knew she had. With Spiro’s partner Inky on the list of suspects, Georgie begins to wonder what else her mother may be hiding. Is the dead-broke diva capable of murder? She’d better find out before someone adds a new twist to the family plot. Includes delicious Greek recipes! |

This time, Amy-Faye and her friends might have to read between the lines to catch a killer. Amy-Faye Johnson’s book club, the Readaholics, is engrossed in Murder on the Orient Express, and Poirot’s surprising resolution is stirring up debate. Is the solution remotely realistic?

To me, Thanksgiving is a time to be with the people that I
love and care about, and to give Thanks for the blessings
that I have been given this past year. It's also a time for
me to personally remember those that aren't a part of my life
now, and that I miss terribly. Thank you again for your
choice of books that you came up with!! You always manage to
come up with the perfect books to read!! I hope you and your
family have a very Happy Thanksgiving!!

giveaway!

Happy Thanksgiving, Kym, to you and your family.
Thanksgiving to me is a time to be grateful for my loving
and supportive family. And this year our family has expanded
as my nephew, his wife and child have moved back and will be
joining us (my sister is thrilled). My mom would have loved
to see us all together but then again, she may be there,
too.
(Joan Varner 11:14am November 23, 2015)

together. There is a lot of satisfaction in gathering
together over recipes that have been in the family for
generations.
(Deb Philippon 3:43pm November 24, 2015)
Thanksgiving to me means family. A chance to put our
worries aside and glow in each other's rare company (its
hard to get 60 people in one place very often!). Sharing a
meal, a feast, is such a happy, warm occasion.
(Michelle Brown 5:35pm November 24, 2015)
Thanksgiving is precious time spent with family and enjoying
this celebration.
(Sharon Berger 7:36pm November 24, 2015)
Thanksgiving to me means settling down to that one rare day of the year where everyone stops fighting, arguing, fussing and yelling and just enjoys the fact that they're still breathing and have the chance to spend the holidays with each other. This will be the first year I'll have been away from my family on this holiday, and its making me appreciate the little things that we did as traditions, like playfully arguing over who got to pull the wishbone, and sneaking a bite of pumpkin pie before dinner was served.
(Asher Dane 10:41am November 25, 2015)
Thanskgiving to me is time for family and friends to get together to give
