If You've Got It, Haunt It

I was really wanting a nice cozy mystery so I choose If You've Got It, Flaunt It from the library homepage a few nights ago. It was an alright read, I prefer cozy mysteries that have a food focus instead of clothing focus.

Cookie was a fun character though I would have loved to learn why a ghost was choosing to haunt her. That was never explained but it might be later in the series. Just looking for some good deals on clothes for her vintage clothing shop Cookie got more then she bargained for when she picked up a ghost a rummage sale. Not wanting anything to do with Charlotte the recently murdered real estate agent Cookie does her best to ignore her which does not work. Things get more chaotic when a lovely white cat decides its new favorite spot is in Cookie's clothing shop.

For once it was nice to read about a believable main character in a cozy mystery, instead of being eager to solve the murder Cookie just wants to be left alone. In no way shape or form does Cookie want to snoop, ask people questions, search for clues, or even talk to Charlotte. Even though it was not my preferred style I liked If You've Got It, Haunt It enough to download the second book in the series last night.
