July Book Pick
I love a good cozy mystery and this one has a neat vibe. It is set in a family restaurant that has fallen on hard times. The restaurant needs updating, but at the end of the month when the bills are paid, there is just no money left to do the updates.
Lila has just experienced a bad breakup and has come home from the city to help her family save the restaurant (and maybe modernize). Things are going well until one of Lila's ex-boyfriends dies right there in the restaurant. This event will set the reader on a who-dun-it adventure where our Lila will get into many things that she really needs to stay out of (but this makes the book fun :) ). I just adore these kinds of books!!! This one is perfect for a day at the park, a stormy afternoon, or to read while your toes are in the sand.

June Bonus Book Pick
I don't normally pick two books in one month, but this one was so good, and most of you have extra time to read in June, I added a second one. I 100% admit that I picked this book because I love the paper flowers on the cover. I thought they were beautiful.
Then, once I started reading I realized I was loving the book.
Flora and Jullian have been married for 20 years..... Which is a great feat in normal circumstances, but given that they are both actors it is a miracle. They have one daughter, Ruby, who is just about to graduate high school. Attending the graduation will be Flora's best friend Margot, who is an actress in a famous medical drama, and her real-life doctor husband, David. Everyone is like a tight family until a wedding band is found in an envelope in the garage and changes everything. I will tell you no more so it won't spoil a thing. I finished this one fast. Enjoy!
