A new Christmas cozy by Donna Andrews read by Bernadette Dunne what a treat. I have not read all the books in this series but I have read a few. Each book can be read as an individual book but when you read them in a series you really get to know the wonderful characters. I loved that this book takes place at a conference for cases of wrongfully convicted individuals and how they might seek dismissal. Of course, there is one attendee who believes there is no person convicted who is innocent. He in the most obnoxious way makes his opinion known. Making enemies along the way.
Thank you to Netgalley, Donna Andrew, and Macmillan Audio for the ARC this is my personal opinion.

I love these mysteries and this audiobook narrator! Donna Andrews always picks a social issue to focus on, and this time it is people wrongly convicted of crimes and the problem of internet trolls. This is less Christmasy than many of her Christmas mysteries, and I missed that, but it is filled with interesting new characters and the large cast of returning characters that I have come to love. I highly recommend this series to readers of cozy mysteries!

Thanks so much to NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC!

It's Christmas time with a baby on the way. Meg and her family are trying to support one another and do the holidays too, and once again a murder interferes and endangers Meg! This book covers some serious topics without losing the "feel" of this cozy mystery series. Not too complicated but great characters interacting with new characters to create a who-done-it for you to guess at. This series is a good comfort and a great read and who doesn't need a little Christmas at the end of summer?

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC.
Another installment in one of my favorite series!! Another great job by this author. I love the Meg Langslow series and all of the fun characters in it. I’ve read or listened to every book in this series and this newest one is just as good as the first. I also love that this one is set at a conference for a type of innocence project. Great narration as always too.

A Christmas cozy mystery that somehow put me into the full mid-December holiday spirit on a warm August day!

Premise - Meg’s SIL, Delaney, is pregnant and everyone is trying to keep her calm and healthy leading up to her Yuletide delivery… that gets a little tougher when a dead body turns up in Meg and Michael’s backyard! This is the next installation in the bestselling Meg Lanslow series, but can be read as a standalone (though you’ll befriend the cast of characters and probably want to go back and read the rest if you haven’t already).

I’m not a constant cozy reader - I tend to prefer popcorn thrillers - but a Christmas cozy by Donna Andrews is too good to pass up. It’s a 5/5 for the genre, you can’t really get more warm-fuzzy and festive (while chatting about murder) than this. I highly recommend for fans of the genre, as well as newbies interested in seeing the best cozies have to offer.

I adored the audiobook by Bernadette Dunne! It’s the perfect way to consume a Christmas cozy, like being read a story by your grandmother (I don’t even have an American grandmother and yet I felt all the cozies from it). Nestle up with a blanket, a mug of your favorite warm beverage of choice, and let Dunne and Andrews put you in the Christmas spirit.❤️

Thanks, NetGalley and Macmillan Audio, for the audio ARC in exchange for an honest review.
