Peggy Lee Garden Mystery

review 1: # 5 in the Peggy Lee Garden Mystery series. I borrowed the book from my friend Brenda. I have tried to find the other books in the series, but our library doesn't have them. Peggy owns the Potting Shed and is a part-time forensic botanist. She is a widow or 3 years, now in love with Steve, the local Vet. Part of the story includes the murder and also the romance. I hope I can locate the other books in the series.
review 2: I expected to like this a lot more than I did. Unfortunately, I found several of the characters rather annoying and unbelievable as was the crime itself. I also didn't like the idea of a grown woman, a widow and mom, being afraid to tell her parents that she's been seeing the local vet. She acted more like a teenager than a 50-somet... morehing professional woman. Peggy's relationship with her overbearing mom was also grating and there's way too much repetition about certain aspects of the crime. It's like the writer thought the reader might forget the main points from chapter to chapter.So, overall this was barely 2 stars. less
