I received this book today...I'm first on the list for this book ray so will try and get at it soon! I have a couple of very busy weeks ahead at my B&B but will read between making beds, baking muffins, and hanging out the laundry!
Thanks kathryn and Happy Birthday!

Well I found a few hours over the weekend before the rush comes this afternoon, so I settled back and enjoyed this book. A different plot and interesting characters...I found this an easy and enjoyable *cozy* type read. Will mail to Amberlee17 tomorrow.

Released on Sunday, September 14, 2003 at Postal release to BCer AmberLee17 in Sunnyvale, California USA.

Mailing on to Amberlee17, next on the book ring list. Enjoy!

Arrived today. Ooooh... looks good!

Journal Entry 6 by AmberLee17 from Stockton, California USA on Friday, October 17, 2003
Very enjoyable mystery. Clues well hidden; possibly too much coincidence required for the crime... I VERY much enjoyed the way the book came full circle with the photo letter to the nephews at the end of the book and the deft handling of "the odor of sanctity".

Ran into a bit of trouble getting this mailed off to the next in the ring. Should go BitterMint in tomorrow's mail.

I enjoyed this fun mystery that is uniquely Catholic. The characters are well developed and all have their individual quirks. Mailed to JDT on November 11th.

Oh wow!
Exciting to receive this book - as a generous birthday bookray from the author, livelywriter!
First impression: looks like an intriguing and cozy mystery with a spiritual dimension. Looking forward to making some time to read, enjoy, and pass on.
Thanks to those before me!

Journal Entry 9 by JDT from Pleasanton, California USA on Saturday, December 20, 2003
Perfect setting - just read this by the fire on a rainy day - first day of vacation (high school teaching)!
Enjoyable, cozy mystery!

2 minor points bothered me: sharing a Catholic heritage, it seems unlikely to me that a church would be named after a recently beatified local. And even more picky, the androgynous name Ronnie periodically confused me - keeping straight the who's who of the characters (or is that my vacation brains!)

That said, I felt honored to be a part of this talented author's birthday bookray. And I thoroughly enjoyed the characters, story, details, warmth and humor.

Sending on for kymberlie to enjoy.
