pnkfuchsia "pnkfuchsia" (California USA) - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Bindweed: A Gardening Mystery (Gardening Mysteries) (Hardcover)

Janis Harrison has put together a gardening mystery series that makes me wish I had "the touch" for flowers -- arranging or growing. Ms. Harrison certainly has the touch for writing wonderful books. I actually read "Bindweed" first. Loved it! So I sought out her other books and read those in order. Well, I did not believe it but I am so bonded to Bretta and her household and her flower shop -- and, of course, Bailey! (I hold a special place in my heart for Carl.) If Bretta had a dog or a cat I would probably love him or her also. I even love the SUV (but glad that she is footing the fuel bills). This is just an absolutely wonderful series and I can hardly wait for more from Janis Harrison.

5.0 out of 5 stars SERIES ENDING, January 28, 2010

ITZME "JEANNE" (Dallas, TX) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Bindweed (Paperback)

I am really sorry to see this series end after 6 books. Bretta Solomon is intrigued with the death of Toby, a mentally challenged young man in their area. Of course, she has a large list of suspects and it takes another murder before she "figures" the entire mystery is complete.

This review is from: Bindweed (Paperback)

I enjoyed reading this book. I guess I was in a "cozy mystery" reading mood. The gardening mystery setting was interesting. The characters were sufficiently developed and a good variety although this is not the first book in this series. There were several instances where the author could have added a paragraph or so to make the action properly flow. I would be in favor of reading more in the series but probably would not go out of my way to locate the other books.
