It's a literary fair in Tidehaven Cove, what could possibly go wrong? Things were going well until one author shows up, his book has NOT been published and he is sure it is due to a government conspiracy, and that everyone needs to pay more attention to that. He blames all the other authors who are there (and some store owners), sure that they are pandering to the government and helping to cover up conspiracy, fraud, and oh, so much more. When he is found dead there is, well, relief, but it does need to be investigated and that's what Ginny does. He antagonized everyone though, so it won't be easy. Bound by Secrets is the second in the Pages & Paws Mystery series by Poppy Bridgeman.

I love cheese, so picking up this book was an easy decision: Cheddar Luck Next Time, by Beth Cato. Bird Nichols makes cheese boards for all kinds of occasions, big to small. There are descriptions of how she does this, the flavors she combines and so on which left me a bit bewildered since I don't do much of anything in the kitchen, but for those of you who do, this will be a treat! She is also autistic so you learn about that, too, (read the acknowledgments), that was very well done. She's hoping her move to a small town will mean a peaceful life, but when she finds a body that all changes. As the newest person in town, and the one finding the body, she is the main suspect. She is going to have to prove she didn't do it ... a good start to (I hope) a series.
