Murder With Puffins
by Donna Andrews
Same characters and same murder mystery format as her first book, but so very different. Meg and her (finally) significant other try to take a quiet vacation on a remote island, where, incidentally, bird watchers have descended in hordes and a hurricane is blowing through.
I enjoyed this almost as much as I did the first one, Murder with Peacocks, and since I gave that one a 5-star rating then you can guess this will be at least 4.75. Same humor, complicated mystery, whacky characters that make you smile just by walking in a room. And the only thing lacking is that the element of surprise is missing, since she did reuse the same people. But I suspect that as I get to know them better, by reading more books of the rather lengthy series, that will make the books even better.
