Why read it?

1 author picked Crouching Buzzard, Leaping Loon as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I love how Meg handles things and how she puts the pieces together. I often finish the books in this series and think, “I could have figured it out if I hadn’t been snickering so much!” 

From Misty's list on sassy and spunky cozy mysteries.
