Lois Meade is a heroine to be taken with pinches of salt. Her home-grown detecting skills and sharp tongue meld nicely with her managerial skills. Not a lady to be ignored, as Hunter would tell us. I always look forward to more Lois.

great book i enjoyed is greatly. would recommend this to anyone who love mysteries.

Ann Purser is one of my favorite authors. Her story lines are always ver interesting, and the characters are always evolving. This book holds your interest and you wish it would go on and on.

Fifth in the series and still keeping the action going. A modern Agatha..nice murder with good sleuthing.

My husband and I are really enjoy reading the Lois Meade books together and trying to solve the mystery before it is revealed.
We would highly recommend the daily mysteries to anyone that is interested in a bit of sleuthing fun in a decidedly English village.

Fear on Friday is not my cup of tea. Having read the series by Hazel Holt, Kate Kingsbury, Emily Brightwell and Jeanne M. Dams which I found delightful and informative, Fear on Friday fell far short of the mark for me. There was too much vacillating from one charater to another; so much so that I found my attention wandering and was unable to read it with ease. Besides that, I found too much attention was given to sex, affairs, etc.

Although the other series touch on these topics, they create their stories in such a way as to include people from all walks of life and give wonderful courses on geography and culture besides.

I have read the Monday thru Thursday books and they are just the greatest. I love Lois Meade. Ann Purser brings out all of the everyday to day goings on in a family in England. I have never been to England but this gives me an idea what it is like in a typical small town. The wrting is very good and keeps you turning the pages and after reading them all you find yourself waiting for the next book to come out. Because it deals with a whole family and their problems I recomend it for teenagers to read.
