Weddings, murder, books are more. Well written with fun characters and plenty of twist and turns to keep it interesting. This has been an enjoyable series.

A Mystery Before the Wedding
Library director Amy Webber, and her awesome fiancé Richard believe their sleuthing days are over. When an unexpected visitor is found murdered during their wedding announcement party. With so many circumstantial guests in attendance, where can Amy even start? There is a lot for Amy to agonize about on top of her wedding plans, when her investigation starts unearthing some shady family history. Victoria Gilbert knows her cozy mystery, and her art history. The William Morris Kelmscott Chaucer is a fantastic book, and it is easy to see why someone would kill for it! It takes a while for Amy to gain momentum in finding her suspect due to her wedding planning, job, dancing lessons, family gatherings, and the large amount of people mysteriously involved. This book is an enjoyable read for the cozy mystery enthusiast, with a sweet romantic ending.

Normally I love this series. Since I have read all of the books so far, I have high expectations. This one left me a bit disappointed. I felt like the author attempted to be elaborate in the plot but to the end that it ended up with some connections that did not connect. The timing of the old crime and the ages of people did not quite mesh and created some confusion in my mind. The one character that was revealed at the end was so obvious from the beginning that I kept say why haven't they figured it out yet! I felt like the author tried to do a lot but did not quite pull it off. I will look for the the next one as I have enjoyed this series so far.

this is a very good mystery amy is a librarian and the man she is going to marry is richard at a party they find a friend murdered. can they figure it out before someone else is killed ? if you like mysteries you will like this one. i was given a copy by netgalley but this is an honest review

I love this series! All the twists and turns keep me from not wanting to miss a thing. The character development keeps me wanting to read this series. Throw in a wedding, which I was sure was not going to happen and it makes for a wonderful who done it!

I cannot wait for the next book in the series!

What a whirlwind of murder, mystery, deception and of course, marriage.
As Amy and Richard prepare for their special day, things go awry when a mysterious visitor winds up dead.
The suspect list is a long one, and it seems no one can figure out who did the deed.

I loved this book, all the characters are so realistic, that I actually felt I was there.
I can’t wait to see what’s in store for this fabulous couple.

I absolutely loved every word of thus adorable mystery. I've got to tell you I'm a sucker for a mystery solving librarian. One of my favorite things was the inslusivity with characters like Scott and Jessica. I am going right now to find books 1-4 to catch up on all the Blue Ridge Library Mysteries crew!
