44 Cranberry Point

I love living in Cedar Cove, but things haven't been the same since a man died in our B and B. Turns out his name was Max Russell, and Bob had known him briefly in Vietnam. We still don't have any idea why he came here and --- most important of all --- who killed him. Because it now appears that he was poisoned. I sure hope somebody figures it out soon!

Not that we're providing the only news in Cedar Cove these days. I heard that Jon Bowman and Maryellen Sherman are getting married. And Maryellen's mom, Grace, has more than her share of interested men! The question is: Which one is she going to choose? Olivia --- I guess it's Olivia Griffin now --- is back from her honeymoon, and her mother, Charlotte (who's in her mid-seventies at least), seems to have a man in her life, too. I'm not sure Olivia's too pleased....

Yep, I'm back to reading another in the Cedar Cove series! Guilty as charged! Debbie Macomber's 44 Cranberry Point was a quick and enjoyable read, but it was also more predictable than the past books. A common theme of forgiveness was threaded throughout several of the stories in this book. And once again, there were weddings and babies, old loves and new, and continuing dramas for the residents in this quaint little town.

Yes, yes, yes.  I am ready for the next book in this series! Again, guilty as charged!
