Summary: Charming
Review: I have only recently been introduced to the charms of Mouse and Sister and have totally fallen for the Southern Sister's mystery series. They have got to be the most unlikely pair of sleuth's that I have encountered. Not only do they keep you on your toes quessing but can make you laugh along the way. Patricia Anne and Mary Alice have been invited to the opening night of a new art exhibit featuring The Outsiders art work. Accepting the invitation sets off a chain of events that neither sister could possibly have imagined. Dead bodies seem to be popping up everywhere as well as past students from Patricia Anne's days of being a teacher. Mouse and Sister's off beat methods of solving the murders makes this a truly enjoyable book that has left this reader wanting more.

Summary: a very entertaining mystery
Review: I like to be entertained when I read and entertained I was. I am now a big Anne George fan and intend to read all of her other southern sisters mysteries.

Summary: A Very Funny Story
Review: I love eccentric characters in mysteries, and these two gals are the epitomy of eccentricity. Two southern belle sisters in their sixties, and oh so "southern". The characterization in this book is extremely good, and the two old gals are wonderful. Unfortuantely, I didn't find the story line as good. There are some pretty big holes in this plot, and the last part of the story, or the denouement made no sense, but I still enjoyed the book because of the characters, and because of the setting. I think I will give Ms.George another try. It's definately fine for light reading.

Summary: Entertaining and funny; I couldn't put it down.
Review: I love these sisters. It makes me wish they were "real" and I could hang-out with them. Mary Alice has to be one of the funniest characters I've had the pleasure getting to know through my reading in a long time. Living in Anniston and shopping frequently in B'ham, I enjoy recognizing the locations where the sisters' mishaps take place. Being a teacher myself, thank you, Mrs. George, for the hours of entertainment and relaxation your books have allowed me.

Summary: Love these sisters!
Review: I usually have 2 books going...a more serious read and a light one. Just discovered Anne George this week-end. What a hoot! Two sisters in their sixties who are total opposites (one petite and more mild-mannered and one large and out-spoken). Just imagine the large one playing Mrs. Claus at the local mall (Birmingham, Alabama) with a funky wig and a top with blinking lights. An opening at the local art gallery ends in death. Now the sisters are on a quest to find the murderer. The dialogue is clever, the situations are rather unique, and the gallery owner has been deemosoed. Read it to find out. I LOVE Joan Hess. Her tales of Maggody have often made me laugh out loud. Now, after reading all of Hess's, I have a new Southern author to seek out. Patricia Anne and Mary Alice (the sisters) are my new "light read." Funny, I finished this one in 2 days while my "serious" book kept calling to me. I'm off to Border's to find more of Anne George.

Summary: A great book about the bonds of southern relationships!
Review: I've read every Anne George book that she has written. Living in Alabama, I can identify with her favorite stores--Winn Dixie and Piggly Wiggly! As everyone in the south knows, a sister can say things about her sister or her brother, but NO one else can! I find the relationship between Patricia Anne and Mary Alice to be complex, confusing, and just plain fun! My teenage daughter enjoyed this book also. The pleasure in reading this book bridges the generations!

Summary: A Very Cozy Mystery
Review: In addition to solving mysteries, Patricia Anne drinks hot spiced tea and reads Tony Hillerman while baking cookies. You can't get any cozier than that! A pretty good mystery with several likable characters who work well together. The story bogs down now and then with intricate descriptions of everyday life, but it all leads to a very satisfying ending. A lightweight read, but enjoyable nevertheless.

Summary: Bad Style, No Substance
Review: Lighter than air plot and prose. Definitely a book written for lighter than airheads.

Summary: A. George is the Florence King of mysteries
Review: Ms. George has great command of the southern "language" and mind. She writes her characters accurately and lovingly, almost as well as the great Florence King. George's plots are actually secondary to the joy and humor contained in the characters and dialogue.
