Mystery Scene Magazine and the April Library Winner

May Day has just this week gotten a positive review in Mystery Scene, which IS the mystery scene, so that's very exciting! Here are my favorite lines from the review (and, believe it or not, I didn't have to edit out any bad things, which is what the ellipses usually mean):

"...Hip young Mira James feels a dead-end job and romance in Minneapolis to seek rural comforts in Battle Lake...Nothing is as it seems, and Mira learns the dangerous way whom she can actually trust. Who would have imagined that her boss, the librarian, would have kinky sexual appetites? Who knew that there was a huge market for sex parties geared toward the geriatric set?...It's enough to make one yearn for the anonymity of the big city where perversity is more evenly distributed. Nonetheless, Mira exposes the truth and gets a nice scoop for her paper, too. Meet this witty heroine in Lourey's engaging new series."

Fun stuff. And if you like mysteries, make sure to read Mystery Scene magazine. It's all there, as I'm sure Alison, Assistant Librarian and winner (for her library) of a free copy of May Day (!!!) will agree too. Your library's copy is in the mail, Alison! Thanks for entering the contest. If you're a librarian, you should do the same.
