My thoughts about Death by Diploma by Kelley Kaye

Disclosure: I got sent a free e-copy of this book by the author.

Emma Lovett leaves her philandering husband and crosses the country to begin her teaching career at a high school in Pinewood, Colorado.There, she meets Leslie Parker, a fellow teacher given to quoting Shakespeare to fit all situations, and the two become fast friends.

Arriving at work early one morning, Emma discovers the body of the school custodian, a man who reminds her of her late father. When the police struggle to find the killer, the ladies decide to help solve the murder. Their efforts lead them to a myriad of suspects: the schizophrenic librarian, the crude football coach, the mysterious social studies teacher, and even Emma’s new love interest.

As Emma Lovett discovers the perils of teaching high school, she and Leslie learn more than they ever wanted to know about the reasons people kill.

I won another giveaway!

I actually won this a few weeks ago now but, as always, life got hectic and I didn't manage to share with you all. 

So here's my unboxing...

I'm really excited about winning a copy of A Different Time by Micheal K. Hill as I've read some great reviews for it. 

About the book:

A lonely, young man risks all to uncover the mysteries of the woman talking to him from the past, but time is running out.

Huge thanks to the author for sending me a copy, and to Dave from The Write Reads group for hosting the giveaway.

Bookish Blog Hops: Autumn 2019

Over the month of September the Bookish Blog Hops group came together to answer a wide variety of bookish questions, from Why we love the book blogging community to the next reads on our TBR lists. 

As always, it was a lot of fun getting to know this wonderful group of book bloggers better, and I think all our TBR lists grew considerably over the cause of the blog hop. Seriously, so many great reading suggestions!
