Pleading the fish is the seventh and final book in the Seaside Cafe Mystery series by Bree Baker, and while I'm sad to see the series end it ended on a great note. And the series wrapped up nicely. I couldn't have asked for a better ending to a great series. And while I will miss Everly butting in on Grady's cases because she can't help herself and Aunt Clara and Aunt Fran's meddling and Denver's sweet child antics. The series ended at the right time. However I have to say that it would make an awesome tv series. 

 

I have to say having three epilogues from three different point of views from three different times was genius.  And I look forward to see what else Bree Baker comes up with.

Tide and Punishment by Bree Baker is the 3^rd book in the Seaside Café mysteries and its Christmas time in Charm and Everly Swan finds herself in the middle of another murder and this time someone she cares about is the prime suspect.

I enjoyed this one just ass much as the first two and Christmas at beach was a neat setting I don’t think I’ve read a book with Christmas in a beach town.

No Good Tea Goes Unpunished by Bree Baker book review

Title:  No Good Tea Goes Unpunished 

Author: Bree Baker

Series: Seaside Café Mystery Book 2

 

Chapters: 24

Pages: 330

Genre: cozy mystery

Rating: 4 stars

In the second book in the Seaside Cafe Mystery series Everly Swan is settling back into life in her hometown and catering a childhood friend’s wedding when the wedding turns in to a funeral.  When the groom is murder and the new bride is the primary and only suspect in the eyes of the law.  Everly in determined to clear her friends name even when it means butting heads with Detective Hays a former US Marshall turned small-town detective.   

After her first murder investigation she had promised to keep her nose out of police business unfortunately when it someone she knows she just can't help but butt in.    Hopefully she can help solve another murder without ending up the killers next target. 

No Good Tea goes Unpunished isn't your typical cozy mystery.  The beach setting with a tea cafe plus it in the culinary cozy. But it reads more modern.  The fictional beach town in North Carolina not far from the outer banks is easy to picture even for someone who hasn't been there because of   the author's descriptions of the town.  Without the magic aspect this book reminds me a bit of the movie Practical Magic. The whole quirky aunts thing and the so called family curse.  As well as the loveable cat and Seagull that have adopted Everly not the other way around. 

This cozy mystery is great for cozy fans that are just looking to branch out while still staying in the cozy genre.  I also suggest reading the books in series order.
