What readers say
Anne George is best known for the Southern Sisters mysteries, in which sensible retired teacher Patricia Anne and her big, brash sister Mary Alice keep stumbling into murders around Birmingham, Alabama. Readers love the sisters' bickering banter, the Southern dialogue and the warm family humor, and many say they come for the characters more than the crimes. Common criticisms are that the mysteries feel secondary and loosely plotted, that some solutions arrive abruptly at the very end, and that a few readers find Mary Alice more grating than funny.
Best for: Readers who want funny, character-driven Southern cozies built around two bickering sisters.
