Cute mystery/detective story. Abby has a lot of guts to go through what she goes through. It's nice to see someone stick to their guns and not get intimidated! Fun read.

Cute mystery loaded with interesting people. Parts are laugh-out-loud funny. After reading this one, you'll want to continue on with the next book in the series.

For those of us that think we could be the character in a book that finds the clue that solves the latest mystery, and can Not keep our nose out of everyone's news, this is your type of cozy. Yes, she is often reckless and does not always make the best decisions considering that someone wants her dead or seriously out of commission, I do not see her as a Lucy Recardo. She seems very kind, and interested in making the "bad guys" pay the time for the crime. I found her book to be a fun read and of course, enjoyable because I love flowers! Hope you take a chance on a new author.

This book was a fun, easy read. While I did enjoy the story, I felt the writing could have been a bit better. It wasn't bad, but I felt like it was maybe badly edited or written immaturely. It is also the authors first book in the series, so who knows. Not to say I won't read the rest of them, they are entertaining and if you are an avid reader, you can get through it in a few days.
