Reviews

"Diverting... Enjoyable." --Publishers Weekly"Andrews' ever-present humor and detailed animal lore will be familiar pleasures, and the grounded and endearing heroine offers the perfect balance to the silly shenanigans in this neatly plotted potboiler." --RT Book Reviews"If you long for more fun mysteries, a la Janet Evanovich, you'll love Donna Andrews's Meg Langslow series." --Charlotte Observer"A long-running series that gets better all the time. A fine blend of academic satire, screwball comedy, and murder." --Booklist"Donna Andrews is known for combining wicked crimes with witty storytelling, and her latest novel featuring blacksmith Meg Langslow, Some Like It Hawk, lives up to its 13 predecessors.... An exercise in homicide and humor, "Some Like It Hot" will prey on the reader's little gray cells and funny bone alike." --Richmond Times-Dispatch on Some Like It Hawk"A satisfactory whodunit with plenty of wrong turns and red herrings... Just the cool tonic for a hot summer afternoon." --Star News (Wilmington, NC) on Some Like It Hawk"The latest Meg Langslow Mysteries is a great tale that satirizes the financial industry as a bunch of predatory hawks who will do anything for another golf course. Filled with eccentric characters, fans will relish this jocular whodunit." --themysterygazette.blogspot.com on Some Like It Hawk"With colorful characters, a solid mystery and laugh-out-loud moments. . . readers will have a rollicking good time with the new Meg Langslow mystey." --RT BookReviews (4 stars)"Six Geese A-Slaying produces at least one chuckle--and sometimes a guffaw--per page. Joy to the world, indeed." --Richmond Times-Dispatch"Andrews...keeps her trademark sly humor in rare form....Andrews is a pro at finding the absurd in ordinary situations and a Christmas parade is a natural fit for this Virginia author." --South Florida Sun-Sentinel on Six Geese A-Slaying"Few writers are as adept as Andrews at affectionately managing a large and varied cast of eccentric characters and concealing the murderer among them until the very end of the book." --Denver Post on Six Geese A-Slaying"This novel is a laugh-aloud, fast-reading romp sure to de-stress your holidays." --Omaha World-Herald on Six Geese A-Slaying"Andrews...scores points for her witty writing and abundance of Yuletide tinsel and tradition." --The State (Columbia, South Carolina) on Six Geese A-Slaying"Andrews mixes humor and domestic life effectively in this ninth installmetn iof the popular series." --Booklist on Cockatiels at Seven"Andrews' wit makes 'Cockatiels at Seven' more fun than seven cocktails - and a lot safer, too." --Richmond Times-Dispatch
