Praise For Donna Andrews
And Her Meg Langslow Mysteries
COCKATIELS AT SEVEN
“Suspense, laughter and a whole passel of good clean fun.”
—Publishers Weekly
“More fun than seven cocktails—and a lot safer, too.”
—Richmond Times-Dispatch
“The plot, in true ‘You Can’t Take It With You’ fashion, involves plenty of snakes, as well as the titular cockatiels and assorted exotic birds. The author has a fine sense of pacing and a droll . . . sense of humor. This is character-driven fiction, and Andrews maintains the action within the confines and sensibilities of her town-and-gown setting.”
—The State (Columbia, SC)
THE PENGUIN WHO KNEW TOO MUCH
“Deliciously daffy.”
—Publishers Weekly (starred review)
“Andrews always leavens the mayhem with laughs. So march yourself down to the bookstore or library and check out The Penguin Who Knew Too Much.”
—Richmond Times-Dispatch
“Andrews’ eighth Meg-centric mystery moves along like the best beach reads.”
—Entertainment Weekly
MORE. . .
“The level-headed, unflappable Meg takes it all in stride . . . This eighth cozy in the series makes the most of humorous situations, zany relatives, and lovable characters.”
—Booklist
NO NEST FOR THE WICKET
“Fun, lively, charming.”
—Publishers Weekly
“Andrews strikes just the right balance between comedy and suspense to keep the reader laughing and on the edge of one’s seat . . . Fans of this series will no doubt enjoy this installment, while new readers . . . will be headed to the bookstore for the earlier books.”
—Romantic Times BOOKreviews (4 stars)
“Any day when I start reading about Meg is cause for delight. Ending the book makes me yearn for more than one per year. Hint.”
—Deadly Pleasures
“As usual, Andrews is a reliable source for those who like their murder with plenty of mayhem.”
—Kirkus Reviews
“Andrews’s talent for the lovably loony makes this series a winner; to miss it would be a cardinal sin.”
—Richmond Times-Dispatch
OWLS WELL THAT ENDS WELL
“A loony, utterly delightful affair.”
—Booklist
“It’s a hoot . . . a supporting cast of endearingly eccentric characters, perfectly pitched dialogue and a fine sense of humor make this a treat.”
—Publishers Weekly
“Death by yard sale epitomizes the ‘everyday people’ humor that Andrews does so well . . . for readers who prefer their mysteries light . . . Andrews may be the next best thing to Janet Evanovich.”
—Rocky Mountain News
“Andrews delivers another wonderfully comic story . . . . This is a fun read, as are all the books in the series. Andrews playfully creates laughable, wacky scenes that are the backdrop for her criminally devious plot. Settle back, dear reader, and enjoy another visit to Meg’s anything-but-ordinary world.”
—Romantic Times (starred review)
WE’LL ALWAYS HAVE PARROTS
“Laughter, more laughter, we need laughter, so Donna Andrews is giving us We’ll Always Have Parrots . . . to help us survive February.”
—Washington Times
“Perfectly showcases Donna Andrews’ gift for deadpan comedy.”
—Denver Post
