I purchased this off BookBub because the premise sounded like a fun, lose yourself, easy read. The southern voice of the protagonist makes for a quirky, sometimes funny, entertaining story. One you can just breeze through and enjoy. There are many typos and I found it annoying so this did bring down my over all enjoyment. (Do they not have proof readers any longer?) Overall I can recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a light hearted murder mystery.

Bonita Faye door Margaret Moseley

The Amazon blurb imagines this as "Fried Green Tomatoes" with murder. I see it as "The Unsinkable Molly Brown" especially the musical version. Bonita Faye is a forthright, can-do kind of girl and she will murder you if you a need it. Cue the orchestra.

Some readers will want more gravitas and plausibility, but never you mind. Just enjoy "Bonita Faye" as humorous fiction for a sunny summer read. And watch out for poison ivy!

"Bonita Faye" is one of the older titles Brash Books is reissuing in digital form. It was originally published in 1997 by Three Forks Press and was a finalist for an Edgar award.

Bonita Faye door Margaret Moseley

Bonita Faye is a very remarkable character. When her life begins, her prospects for a successful and happy life seem slim, at best. But despite life's very serious set-backs, Bonita Faye keeps trudging forward. Margaret Moseley has done a wonderful job of providing a somewhat twisted, classic, detective mystery. This is a very enjoyable novel.
