A Quilting Cozy Mystery on a Cruise Ship!

This is a great unique cozy mystery series! In the first book, Nona died and left 10 quilts for family, close friends and a few people that are part of other books in the series. It is a wonderful idea that introduces new characters and ties each book together. Nona plans a cruise for Alexandra (Alex), her granddaughter Charlotte, several of their Spruce Street neighbors, Joey and Cecelia. A new friend of Joey’s ends up dead and the circumstances are odd. The Spruce Street crew is on the case. The pace of the book is good and there are several accidents that keep the story interesting. I guessed a small part of the finale but there is more to the story. The characters are wonderful. The whole part about all of Nona’s secrets is a little odd but it adds to the story and we are learning a little with every book. The audiobook is extremely well done and the characters and voices are easy to distinguish. Very enjoyable! I won the audiobook from Kathryn Mykel’s Facebook event and I volunteered to do an honest review. #QuiltingCalamity

Wonderful series!

Quilting Calamity is the Quilting Cozy Mystery Book 2 by Kathryn Mykel. Alex Bailey’s grandmother Nona’s final request is to arrange a quilting cruise to a mysterious destination for everyone on Spruce Street. Right from the start, there are odd characters, strange happenings, and a death. Alex is also trying to figure out her Nona’s secrets, to distribute her quilts like in a quest. She is also trying to avoid getting killed! The book is great, the story is solid and the mystery has twists and turns. The characters are quirky, but likable. The narration by Stevi Incremona is wonderful. I highly recommend the series!

Suspenseful

Wow! Alex can not get away from murders whether she is on Spruce Street or a cruise ship.

Another Fun Adventure

Setting the Scene: Alex and her community have embarked on the cruise planned by Nona before her death. The destination is unknown. Some of the passengers seem suspicious. What could go wrong? As it turns out, a lot.

What I Thought: This was another fun adventure with Alex and friends, even if murder and mayhem followed in their wake. Alex will learn more of Nona's secrets provided she can stay alive long enough to do so. That said, it is time to meet the mysterious Hawk. Alex could have used him on this trip, even though Betty would tell a different story. Of course, there is another letter and another adventure coming up.

Once again the narrator did an excellent job voicing the characters and the spirit of the book.

Murder at Sea

Quilting Calamity is Book 2 of A Quilting Cozy Mystery by Kathryn Mykel. Alex is still grieving the death of her grandma, Book 1. Alex and the whole neighborhood is gifted a cruise. But, mayhem and a side of murder is on the agenda. I thought this cozy mystery was tons of fun. I enjoyed the characters and the story was exciting. Kathryn Mykel dropped hints and clues that kept me listening and guessing who the killer was. I thought Stevi Incremona was excellent as the narrator. I also liked that Kathryn Mykel gave just enough backstory to bring listeners into book 2. I believe everyone will enjoy this cozy!
