Aunt Dimity's Death by Nancy Atherton (Book Beginnings & Friday 56)

I've been hearing about the Aunt Dimity series since it first started ... over 25 years ago. Had I started reading them then, I doubt that I would have gotten as much out of them. I was expecting a quirky ghost story. That isn't quite what happened. I was also expecting a traditional cozy mystery. That isn't quite what happened either. What happened is that I fell in love with the very non-traditional telling of a girl, her ghost, and the mysteries of love, loss and finding joy in spite of everything else. 

I'm now 22 books behind ... but I have a feeling that number will shrink quite quickly (especially as I already have the next three in my possession)!

Friday 56 (today is from the 56% mark of the ebook) is hosted at Freda's Voice
& Book Beginnings (share the first few sentences) is at Rose City Reader.

This series is really popular at my library - and it sounds like a good one. :)
