Summary: a romance that's not brain dead
Review: I loved this book. The most popular romances, I find, are nothing but a lot of filler between sex scenes. This book has real characters and plot, with romance seeming natural and not overly central to the story. It did not seem like the author wrote it into a fill in the blank mold, and I really liked weezie and would like to meet her again.very very good.

Summary: Pure Dee Fun!
Review: I loved, loved, loved this book! Such a fun, light, uplifting and riveting read! The characters were hilarious and very well-developed. In fact, I think I know more than one of those snooty b--ches!!! I enjoyed reading and learning about the intriguing world of antiques...and the murder plot was ingenious. It kept me guessing until the end. A delightful read that I very highly recommend. I'm looking forward to more from this wonderful Southern Belle!!!

Summary: A great tale for real women to end up on top
Review: I was given this book by my daughter, and a week later she said so.. have you started it. Well no I read 2 books a week and always have plenty, but thought it must be important to her so.
I couldn't get enough it was so refreshing and different that a lot of the heroines in mystery novels these days the antiquing was great change and her whole group of characters was wonderful. I only hope there is a sequel... Read it soon gals you will have a smile for days, and really wish it hadn't ended! Robin

Summary: When Martha met Nancy...................
Review: If Martha Stewart and Nancy Drew were to raise a child it would be Weezie Foley. Is there nothing that this woman can't do? Including travel through time. She is supposed to be 30 (born in 1970) but had a childhood craving for a Princess phone and named her dog after Jethro Tull and Jethro Bodine of the Beverly Hillbillies. I surveyed several young ladies in the early thirties age group and found that the princess style phone was unknown in their teen years. All they knew about Jethro Bodine was to ask, "was there a TV show before the movie about the hillbillies." Jethro Tull apparently did a come back somewhere in the '80s and they all knew them. I suspect that Ms. Andrews, like so many of the "Danielle Steele" genre of writers, writes herself into her characters, AND Ms. Andrews, judging only from her picture on the jacket, was probably a teenager in the '70s NOT a toddler. Additionally, Weezie's mother is characterized early on as not to far past retirement age (mid-sixties we would assume). Later she states that she gave birth to Weezie in her 40's which would make her mid 70's. These women are apparent marvels at staying young! The errors also were a significant distraction. Editing and proofreading never get the credit they are due until they are done poorly. This book isn't a mystery, it isn't a love story, and it isn't challenging enough to keep my attentions.

Summary: IF YOU LOVE ANTIQUES ROADSHOW, YOU'LL LOVE THIS BOOK
Review: If you love going to flea markets, yard sales, and browsing through antique stores, you'll devour this book. It's a fun mystery too, but the real hunt isn't for a killer...it's for the killer find, that piece of furniture you pick up... that turns out to be early American and worth 25,000, or the box lot that contains a treasure trove of jadite dishes in the bottom. And the city of Savannah is here too, with all its charm and drawbacks...but ah, who wouldn't leave Atlanta, as the author did, to write a mystery there. I can only hope this is the start of a series...

Summary: my new favorite book
Review: If you love southern lit, savannah culture and great witty dialog you'll love this book. I didn't realize it was considered a mystery book until read more info about the book after I was done reading it. It is an easy fast read. I can't wait for her next book to come out and may check out her other books under her real name.

Summary: Savannah's next "it" book!
Review: Mary Kay Andrews has a hit on her hands with Savannah Blues! This is a wild ride through the in's and out's of Savannah as seen through the eyes of a local antiques "picker". Departing from her usual genre of mystery to a broader scope of location novel, Mary Kay Andrews (aka Kathy Hogan Trocheck) takes us into the world of Savannah's elite and those not so well-heeled. She weaves a funny and heart-warming tale of loss and love found in unexpected places! A 10!
