What readers say
Set at a campground in a small Kentucky town, this series wins readers with quirky, warm characters, especially the laundry club ladies and the dogs, plus light twists, a scenic setting and recipes at the back. Fans like that it is clean and easy to dip into. The most common complaint is sloppy editing, with typos, continuity errors and repeated backstory in every book, and some find the mysteries simple. Recent reviews are more divided, with a few readers giving up over the editing while others stay devoted.
Best for: Readers who want a clean, humorous small-town cozy with ensemble cast and can tolerate typos.
