I had only read a page or two of this book when I thought, "This is so badly edited that it must be self-published"--and it is! This is released by a print on demand publisher, and as quoted from Wikipedia, "POD publishers generally do not screen submissions prior to publication." Think about that before you buy this book.

The Writer's Club is a wonderful book full of excitement and mystery. Ms.Collier made it very easy for the reader to instantly bond with the characters. Each story makes you look forward to the next. As a reader, I hope Ms.Collier is planning on writing more about the members of the Writer's Club. I look forward to reading her next book.

The Writer's Club weaves the dreams of four writer friends whose lives get tangled in various, intriguing mysteries and tender romances. A favorite for this reader was an endearing scarecrow, Mr. Scary. A must read for those who enjoy cozies!
