Thanks so much to Thoughts from a Page patreon group and William Morrow Books for not only the eARC of Mother-Daughter Murder Night by Nina Simon, but also an amazing hour zoom call listening to Nina discuss her book. I loved hearing about her publishing story. 

This was such a great whodunnit novel featuring a grandmother, daughter and granddaughter trio investigating a murder that pretty much happened right outside their window! These characters are well developed and different from each other, but work so well together. I don’t think I can pick a favorite? The setting of Monterey Bay adds much to the mystery and was a little armchair travel for this reader. This was suspenseful, thoughtful, tender and funny. That’s a lot to get in one debut (!) book and Nina does this beautifully. I just loved it so much. 5 stars. Pub Date 9/5/23
