5,0 su 5 stelle The Spia Family Presses On

This was a great book, full of ex mob, family rules, dislike of police, delicious olives and all sprinkled with mystery, action and romance. I didn't guess who the killer was either which was a bonus. Looking forward to reading more Spia family tales.

Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 30 settembre 2012

For the last two years, a very sober Mia Spia has worked at her family's Sonoma olive orchard (or as Mia calls it a `mob rehab farm'), pressing and selling extra virgin olive oil. The orchard is home to Mia's family and their close friends, including a number of retired mobsters. Soon after newly released ex-con, Cousin Dickey, arrives for an unwelcome visit, someone is found dead, and Mia's mom is set up to take the fall for the murder. When her mom ends up in jail, Mia knows that she has to get involved and find the killer.

Mary Leo's The Spia Family Presses On is a fun read. I found myself chuckling and laughing out loud frequently. Mia involves her friend, Lisa Lin, in the investigation, and the dialogue between them is witty and natural. The secondary characters are way past `quirky'. The conversation that takes place in the barn while everyone is staring down at the dead body made me laugh, and I loved the scene that took place at the cabin in the woods.

Ms. Leo has written an enjoyable, `don't take it too seriously', murder mystery. The mystery is interesting, and with so many possible suspects, it took me a bit longer than usual to figure out the culprit. However, in my opinion, the mystery takes a back seat to these unusual, larger-than-life characters. While I was reading, I kept thinking that this would make a very funny movie. I am looking forward to the next book in this series. If you are looking for a light, fun mystery, give this one a try. Happy reading!

FYI: The book contains recipes that sound absolutely delicious, but they are placed at the end of certain chapters (which took me out of the story so I had to stop reading them--LOL!). I think placing them at the end of the book would be better.

4,0 su 5 stelle Days of Wine and Wiseguys
Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 19 settembre 2013

This book sets up a wealth of story ideas for crime and "funishment" fans: A vineyard and tourist attraction owned and operated by a large and lively family of repentant mobsters. (They even have an AA-like organization to encourage sobriety or abstinence around their previous criminal activities.)

Characters are engaging (you want to get to know them better) and the setting appealing (a kitschy Italian village of gift shops, a bakery and a cafe adjacent to a grove of olive trees and the family's olive oil processing factory).

I'm looking forward to the next book.
