October 30 is National Candy Corn Day! And, I even found a book to celebrate. :-) I do appreciate Leslie Meier, she makes this so easy sometimes.

It's time for the Annual Giant Pumpkin Fest in Tinker's Cove. For months growers have been loving tending their pumpkins (one is named Priscilla), and now someone is smashing them. Then there's the body in the trunk of the car designated as the target for the pumpkin hurl. Candy Corn Murder, like all of Meier's mysteries, is a nice, cozy read.

It's almost Halloween and the festival in Caerphilly is in full swing. Kid friendly during the day, more spooky and scary after dark, it's been an interesting balance for everyone (store owners change their decorations, employees alter their costumes). There's a cat worth thousands, a family picture with a hidden secret, and a scavenger hunt with a spooky theme. Lord of the Wings, by Donna Andrews is the newest in the Meg Langslow Mystery series. This has been a great series! I loved the ravens!
