Summary: How not to have a wedding.....
Review: Meg Langslow has offered to help plan the weddings of her best friend, her future sister- in-law and her mother who is marrying the next door neightbor while her ex (Meg's father) is always around helping.. everyone has outrageous ideas from peacocks discovering the lawns, velvet in 90 plus degree weather, loads of "accidents" and finally a murder...maybe more.

I haven't had so much fun reading a cozy in a long time.The characters are likeable, alittle crazy and almost all related in this little town. The author is witty, funny and keeps this great story just rolling along. It is a blast with many "laugh-out-louds". I highly recommend it and can't wait for her next one.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good and funny!
Review: Anyone who's ever planned even one wedding knows how out of hand things can get. This poor woman is a bridesmaid in three separate weddings in one summer, so she's tearing her hair out even before the murders start! If you're planning a wedding, and about to kill the caterer or your future in-laws, read this instead.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: This book is a total chick-flick
Review: This book was absolutely disastrous. I practically ripped it up after reading the first 50 pages. A complete chick flick - about a lady who is stuck in the middle of planning 3 weddings, with a little murder on the side.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Great Read
Review: Read this book during the weekend and found it to be very enjoyable. Reads much like an Anne George book. You have interesting characters, good story, a mystery that takes some funny turns and a heroine that makes you laugh out loud. Can't wait for the next one

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A dazzling debut
Review: This book won the St. Martin's/Malice Domestic award for unpublished writers, and we are all better for it. A really wonderful read.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Hilarious mystery with a solution that isn't obvious
Review: Very funny and clever first(?) book. I picked this book up strictly because I need d something to read while waiting between carpool duties and I really got strange looks from other parents because I was laughing out loud and I was all alone. Anybody waiting for kids to carpool isn't usually in a great mood but this book is very entertaining. The characters are well written and although in some of the sub plots you know wha is going to happen, the fun is actually watching it happen. The mystery is well handeled and the main characters is someone I look forward to reading about in the next book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Good Mystery with Crazy Cast of Characters
Review: I really enjoyed reading this book. The characters were really off the wall and I found myself laughing out loud at points. I am looking forward to more books by this author. Murder with Peacocks was outstanding!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Delightful and down to earth!
Review: I normally don't like books written in first person, but this is so well written I enjoyed it all the way to the end. Donna Andrews has written a book that makes you laugh and think at the same time. It's a fun and quick read. The heroine reminds you of all the times you wished you could have said or done something in retaliation for all the mean things some people do or say, but in a manner that is comical. At the end of the read, you may have figured out some things, but definitely not all. I hope that Donna will write some more. Excellent job, especially for a new author!
