The Little Shop of Murders is a delightful cozy anthology. These 15 novellas set in various shop settings were are well written and fun for a quick read. The collection contained a mix of authors that were new and familiar to me.
Particular standouts for me were “Always & Furever” by Eryn Scott. A bookshop with adoptable cats seems like a dream come true to me. The sweet second chance love story was an added bonus. “The Gift of Dragons” by ACF Bookens. The description of the illuminated manuscript was lovely. I could easily picture it in my head. The explanation of where it came from was also very touching. “Nightly Nuisance” by Kathryn Mykel. Fun story with a cute twist.
