Yankee Doodle Dead

I had a tough time getting interested in Yankee Doodle Dead – a Death on Demand mystery.  I think maybe I’m not a big enough mystery fan to really enjoy all of the mystery book references, which really slowed the story down for me.  About halfway through it – when the murder occurred, I was more interested and sat down and finished it right away.  But the first 100 pages, slow going.   Not a bad book for a vacation, though.  Light mystery.  Great female characters.  Nice lowcountry setting.

  1. Hey glad to hear how much you are enjoying London. Based on your review, I may try the Death on Demand series again. I gave up after the fourth one as I found her to be really sizeist in her approach. I enjoyed the first couple I read but then they frustrated me. I found the same thing happened but for different rwasons with the Catering mysteries by Diane Mott Davison. I like the new format of the blog too. Pink
