WALKERS: A ONE ACT COMEDY FOR FOUR ACTRESSES by Patricia Rockwell
SMART MONEY MOVES: 2025 EDITION: SIMPLE TIPS THAT HELP YOU KEEP MORE OF WHAT YOU EARN by Serena Bennett
The author lives in the UK, so not all the links or services are available to me in the US. But for most of them, there is a comparable service or app in my country. Quidco is not available to me, but Rakuten is an app that gives you up to 6% cash back on purchases made through certain online sites.
I recommend this book to everyone. Because we all need to spend less and more smartly.

ZOOMED: AN ESSIE COBB SENIOR SLUETH MYSTERY BOOK 6 by Patricia Rockwell
While they are having their first meeting, and unexpected and unknown guest enters. She is very upset, yells about Will, and then disappears. Essie sees a mystery to solve. The girls start to investigate who this lady was and how can they help her.
These girls are always exciting and funny. But being able to solve this case seemed a little far-fetched to me. The story was still enjoyable. I recommend it to anyone who wants a light, quick, easy and fun story.

GHOSTED: AN ESSIE COBB SENIOR SLUETH MYSTERY BOOK 4 by Patricia Rockwell
This book is more about Essie and her family. The first 3 books involved Essie's 3 best friends in the investigations more.
There are 2 mysteries to solve. First, Essie's mental issues. That one is pretty easy for the reader to figure out. Second, what is Happy Haven's newest resident, Edward Troy, up to? This one comes as a total surprise.

FIRECRACKERED: AN ESSIE COBB SENIOR SLUETH MYSTERY BOOK 5 by Patricia Rockwell
Essie and her 3 friends are on a mission to find out who shot Happy Haven's newest resident, Lester Mills, with a firecracker on the 4th of July and why. Now this is not just a firecracker, this was a drone driven missile.
I love this series. Essie and her friends are fun and adventurous. And the mysteries are intriguing, yet easy to solve if you pay close enough attention. The stories are short, easy, fun reads.
