Title: Every time I Go On Vacation someone DIES
Author: Catherine Mack
Publisher: Minotaur Books
Genre: Contemporary Cozy Mystery
Thank you to @macmillanaudio #MacAudio2024 for the #gifted listening copy! This book is narrated by Elizabeth Evans who flawlessly navigated a large cast of characters. For awhile I honestly thought this was multi narrated! Kudos!
Are you going on vacation this summer? Then this book is a must for your suitcase. Even if you’re only headed to your favorite reading nook, this one is a lot of fun and one I would recommend. Warning: It’s going to have you renewing your passport and booking a trip to Italy. The food, drinks and shenanigans was out of this world!
Things I loved:
✅ About a book series and author
✅ Sisterly love
✅ The footnotes and author breaking the “fourth wall”
✅ Did I mention it takes place in Italy!?
Author Eleanor Dash wants is to get through her book tour in Italy and kill off her main character, Connor Smith, in the next in her Vacation Mysteries series—is that too much to ask?
But, when it turns out someone actually wants to kill Connor, things go off the rails a little. Add to that rabid fans (hilariously called the bookface ladies!) a stalker, her handsome ex, and a few other authors on tour and this book is nonstop fun.
The mayhem and snark from Eleanor reminded me of my favorite duo, Finlay and Vero in the Finlay Donovan series. And good news, this one is going to be a series too! It has quite the ending.
