it was amazing


What I think you should know:
A Giant Murder is a Christian Historical Fiction, Fairytale Retelling by Marji Laine. It. is the second book in the Ever After Mysteries Series, a series of standalone novels set in the 1920s, all as different fairytale retellings. The story is set in 1926 Dallas, Texas.

What you might need to know:
Josie lost her brother Bobby and her Father prior to the start of the story.

What I think about this book:
Lanie has created a Jack and the Beanstalk full of twists that I never saw coming, sweeping the reader into the prohibition area . I enjoyed the details that the author put into the story and could picture the grand parties and sweet picnic. This was a well thought out and developed mystery. I really enjoyed Josie and Porter and their interaction with each other. Josie was such a great character, in spite of all of the loss that she had faced Josie kept strong faith and went out of her comfort zone to share her faith with others. I look forward to the next book in the series and will definitely read more books from Laine.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from Celebrate Lit, this in no way influenced my review. All opinions are my own.
