This review is from: Kirkland Signature Sunshine Candy Halloween Candy Mix Bag – 7 Pounds Value Bag (Misc.)

This bag of Kirkland Mix hard candys was a big hit in the Office. There is a great variety of types and each type has a variety of flavours. I do have to say the Root Beer Barrels I had never heard of before and where great, tasting just like A&W root beer.

Big bag but didn’t last long when the co-workers found out how good they were.

Even when the shoes were too big for me,I was able to walk perfectly. I found the others reviews misleading (they tell you to go with a higher size if you usually get 1/2 sizes). Please contact the seller before buying, they are very kind and they can easily tell you the internal length of the size you are planning to get. Do this and you will save yourself some $$ (I had to pay about $10.00 for sending the shoes back to request an exchange).

Excellent product!!!, June 3, 2010
This review is from: Funtasma by Pleaser Women’s Platform Mary Jane

I have to mention that I’m waiting on my replacement (I needed a size#7 and not #8). Even when the shoes were too big for me,I was able to walk perfectly. I found the others reviews misleading (they tell you to go with a higher size if you usually get 1/2 sizes). Please contact the seller before buying, they are very kind and they can easily tell you the internal length of the size you are planning to get. Do this and you will save yourself some $$ (I had to pay about $10.00 for sending the shoes back to request an exchange). Good luck!!

This review is from: A Catered Halloween (Mystery with Recipes) (Mass Market Paperback)

I was excited when I saw this series of books – it is a mystery series with a holiday theme. It seemed perfect for me, so I started off with the Halloween book.

It took me a long time to read this book; I thought I would never finish it. It is dry, boring, lacks charm, uninteresting. Of all the one-star books, this would be the worst of them all. I will never read another book of this series. I didn’t care for the characters. I didn’t like anything about this book.

The idea of this book and the series seems like something good. Two sisters run a catering shop, and each book is around a holiday or occasion. So the idea of the book looks good on paper. But the actual book was so boring and charmless. Sometimes it just rambled on, and I couldn’t get interested in the characters. I didn’t care for the sisters or the dad, or anybody else. And character development wasn’t that great, but what it was, I didn’t care for any of them. It was boring to say the least.

The two sisters were determined to find out who killed the victim (I will not say who). They used some things that were supposed to be “exciting” when solving a mystery, such as the puzzle box, viewmaster, etc, but I couldn’t even get interested in those things. Bessie Osgood had died at the old school, and then someone else was murdered (the someone whom I won’t say who).

The last page of the actual book was 321 (not counting the recipes), and that was 321 too many. I did finish the book (I hardly ever leave a book unread.) But I will never read another book in this series. I felt zero coziness in this book.

I can't get a picture of them in my head. Are Bernie and Libby in their 20s, 30s, 40s? We get so few insights into their relationship. The interplay between their dad Sean and Marvin, the guy who drives him around (also dating one of the sisters - I forget which), is much better developed.<br/><br/>I know plot is important in mysteries, maybe more important than characters, and the plot in this one is fine. It's not hard to read, and Libby and Bernie are likeable enough. I feel kind of bad about it, but this writer just doesn't draw me in. There are several mystery series set in the world of catering, restaurants, tea shops, etc., that have memorable characters and appealing sleuths. This one just doesn't do it for me.

Kind of forgettable, October 30, 2009
By 
Rushmore (CHICAGO, IL United States) –

(VINE VOICE)
  

This review is from: A Catered Halloween (Mystery with Recipes) (Mass Market Paperback)

It wasn’t till I was nearly done with this book that I realized I had read A Catered Christmas, another book in the series.

I have trouble engaging with these characters. I can’t get a picture of them in my head. Are Bernie and Libby in their 20s, 30s, 40s? We get so few insights into their relationship. The interplay between their dad Sean and Marvin, the guy who drives him around (also dating one of the sisters – I forget which), is much better developed.

I know plot is important in mysteries, maybe more important than characters, and the plot in this one is fine. It’s not hard to read, and Libby and Bernie are likeable enough. I feel kind of bad about it, but this writer just doesn’t draw me in. There are several mystery series set in the world of catering, restaurants, tea shops, etc., that have memorable characters and appealing sleuths. This one just doesn’t do it for me. Sorry.

(REAL NAME)
  

This review is from: A Catered Halloween (Mystery with Recipes) (Hardcover)

Amethyst Applegate receives a blackmail letter from deceased Bessie Osgood, who died years ago when they attended school together. Unshaken Amethyst plans to take care of the blackmailer as she took care of Bessie.

The Simmons sisters, Libby and Bernie, owners of A Little Taste of Heaven, are ecstatic to cater the Halloween festivities at the Peabody School, a place rumored to be haunted. Businessman Mark Kane is going all out to include construction of a haunted house with high tech special effects that a Hollywood horror move would envy. Everyone is stunned when they see a torso on a table with the severed head of Amethyst nearby.

Finding the killer will not prove easy as everyone has a motive to murder the universally loathed Amethyst whose list of enemies exceeds the Longley phonebook. Libby thinks she sees the ghost of Bessie, but rationalizes that her imagination got the best of her rather than her intuitive powers. Bob Small who is working at the haunted house has a strong reason to kill Amethyst because he spent jail time due to a stunt she pulled. Inez Colley hated the female abomination for stealing her husband and her wealth by seducing and blackmailing her weak spouse. Zachary Timberland held Amethyst culpable for ruining his daughter Zoe. The list goes on. However, the police arrest Bob as he is the only one with opportunity. The Simmons siblings think otherwise so with their father along they investigate the murder of an odious witch.

Isis Crawford outdoes her usual superb catered amateur sleuth novels with A CATERED HALLOWEEN as ghosts and Libby’s visions enhance a whodunit in which the townsfolk, the sisters, and the readers agree beheading is befitting the odious ogress. The two sisters are total opposites yet best friends as each is always there for the other. Due to Libby’s paranormal skills they feel obligated to unmask the real killer as they believe strongly the cops got the wrong person. With euphoric ghosts and plenty of eccentric suspects toasting the killer, solving the case of the murdered witch may prove a recipe for failure for the Simmons, but catered entertainment for series fans.
