What readers say
Readers come to Cruising Through Midlife for its relatable heroine, a woman in her late forties starting over after divorce, and for the comedy of her outspoken older sidekicks as murders follow them from port to port. Fans enjoy the banter, vivid cruise destinations, light ghostly touches and crossovers with the author's other series, and many call the books breezy escapism. Common criticisms are a love triangle some find tiresome, romance and subplots that crowd out the mystery, more innuendo than some expect from a cozy, unlikely plotting and occasional continuity slips, and later reviews are more mixed than the launch excitement.
Best for: Readers who want funny, flirty travel cozies with a midlife heroine and don't mind romance taking center stage.
