The local girl gone celebrity, Jade Lee, has come back to town for her 10th high school reunion, which is being put on by Emma Lee. The once Homecoming Queen is going to film a new reality show: Girl from Hick Town makes good. Not only was Jade Lee nasty mean in h.s., calling Emmal Lee "Creepy Funeral Girl", but she is even meaner & nastier upon her return... Only someone doesn't like her nastiness and a series of accidents befall her... Things get interesting as Jade Lee appears to Emma Lee just before one of the many planned festivities asking for help still dresses in a kimono, turban & house slippers; dead as a door nail. A light, fun, & entertaining read I love a book that makes me laugh , has quirky dialogue and characters that are funny and over the top. This book has all the elements for a great read and funny sayings that had me laughing so hard I cried. I could visualize every character by the great description the author wrote. The personality of the characters were straight out of a small town where everyone knew each other's business. Emma is such a great character I think I would enjoy being her friend. She is witty, smart and oh yeah she sees dead people. Can you imagine being able to see a dead person and actually talk to them ? Emma didn't ask for that gift but a freak accident by a plastic Santa gave her the ability to help the dead cross over. The author has such a great sense of humor and it shines throughout the story. Emma works at the family business , Eternal Slumber Funeral Home. She has a nickname that will have you rolling on the floor. The big news in town is the class reunion that Emma has been working on. Everyone is starting to show up in town and one special person has just arrived. I know we all have that one person who we just did not like in school. They were popular , beautiful and let's not forget snotty and rude. Who would have thought the girl who made it big would show up in town for the class reunion? Jade Peel has made a grand entrance into town and my do the people fawn over her. She did make a name for herself as a star and there is no way she would miss coming to the reunion. What better opportunity than to rub her celebrity status at a quaint little reunion. Emma is not a happy person when she sees Jade. Why does Emma have a grudge against Jade? I have to say that Jade was a mean spirited person but I really liked her character. She was very well written and even though she was a mean girl in high school there was a little insecure girl somewhere inside her. Well maybe it's well hidden but she sure could stir up trouble. The story is fast paced and Emma has her hands full when someone is found dead at her grandmother's Inn. Can you guess who the dead person is? It makes for a lot of laughs as Emma tries to help solve the murder. I loved the book so much I read it without stopping till the end. There are many suspects and I was a bit surprised at who the killer was. Get ready for another great book with all the elements of surprises and plenty of laughs to please readers looking for a fun cozy mystery . The author has once again written a story that makes you laugh, keeps you guessing and leaves you wanting to read more books from her. I received a complimentary copy of the book from The Great Escape Book Tour. The review is my honest review. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

This book finds Emma Lee fixing to attend her school reunion. If that isn't nerve wracking enough, her nemesis is a celebrity! When Emma Lee starts hearing Jade talking without seeing her, we know something is up. Emma's Funeral Trauma only affects her when someone is dead. Was it a murder or a suicide though? If trying to find the answer to that doesn't keep Emma Lee busy enough, Charlotte Rae is determined to have Jade's Funeral at Hardgroves, (and is trying to get her hands on an heirloom from Eternal Slumber). Will Emma Lee be able to stop her? Or will something else happen?
I had such a good time with this book. I laughed out loud several times. Fortunately my dog loves this series too and was laughing along with me. She thinks Emma Lee is a hoot, especially when her Funeral Trauma sets in. By the time I got to this one, most of the folks in Sleepy Hollow were my friends. I find that reading these books is equal to sitting in the porch swing, sipping sweet tea and listening to folks talk. I read this one in one sitting without noticing the time flying by. There isn't much racy, (language, sex, violence), about it so it's fine reading for just about anyone in the family who has a hankering to hang out with a dead body or two and try to figure out who did what, (and what was just gossip).
