I finally got the whole Molly the Maid series, because I’ve been hearing so many good things for so long. When I’ll catch the round tuit for it I have no idea, but now I have it for when the mood strikes. It certainly sounds like just my kind of comfort mystery read.
But its covers are awfully plain. Which works for the series, but not so much for this week’s STS highlights. I think this week’s pretty covers are A Beautiful Family, A Legionnaire’s Guide to Love and Peace and A Magic Deep & Drowning although A Beautiful Family is a thriller so I suspect that whatever happens to that beautiful family isn’t beautiful at all.
The book I’m most looking forward to, in addition to The Maid, is The Secret Library of Hanna Reeves, which I doubt is a surprise to much of anyone who knows me. The one I’m most curious about, probably also not much of a surprise, is The Book Club for Troublesome Women.

I love The Maid series and you should know that the narration adds an extra layer of enjoyment! Have a great weekend.
That’s what I’ve heard! And I’m interested. I just can’t borrow the audiobooks from the library until I know I’m ready to start listening. Which I want to, but…so many books, so little time rears its ugly little head yet again! Thanks for the recommendation and have a terrific weekend yourself!

Some great looking books
That’s quite a book haul again! I’ll be interested to see what you think of the Maid mysteries. I haven’t read them, but I keep seeing them everywhere.
