They write books about women like me, who cancel weddings and then go on the honeymoons by themselves. Yeah, cracked the little voice in my head. Freudian case studies. Fat ones, with footnotes. Thanks a lot, I said to the little voice. I'm not crazy . Besides, cruising around the Caribbean by yourself isn't so bad. Sea air is famously restorative. You can have room service at four in the morning. And no end of me time. Plus we'd prepaid. No refunds. I vowed to have a terrible time. In penance for ruining the best relationship of my life for reasons bafflingly vague to everyone but myself, I left my trousseau behind.

This read was the best in the series. Very surprising and very fun. ( )

What a great twist! ( )

I loved this book!! Laugh-out-loud funny, I had to force myself to turn the light off in the wee hours of the morning in order to get a few hours of sleep before dawn. I kept wanting to see what was going to happen!
The mystery had me puzzled all the way along and I was as paranoid and suspicious of everyone as the main character - I love it when I can't figure out who the killer is (so many mysteries these days, especially cozies, are so obvious). Cece Caruso is a fun, intelligent and klutzy character and neurotic enough to feel real. And I enjoyed all the trivia and analysis of Hitchcock and his movies, and the way Susan Kandel would relate them to the plot and what was happening to Cece.
I would highly recommend this book to all cozy mystery fans, especially those who are fans of Hitchcock and old Hollywood. ( )
