I am fortunate to have discovered Spencer Quinn, as I have never read his work before. Mrs. Plansky's Revenge is a delightful and amusing tale of a well-to-do widow living in retirement in Florida. It is enjoyable to read about feisty women in my age group, and Mrs. Plansky is that and so much more. Her character is relatable; she deals with an overly dependent family and the dreaded telephone scammer. When Mrs. Planksy decides to solve her own problem, her entertaining and heartwarming adventure begins. A must-read.

I found the book, "Pieces of Blue" to be a heartwarming look at loss, love, and the struggle to move forward. It was easy to embrace the Hill family as they transitioned to Hawaii as owners of a rundown motel on a beautiful beach to start a new life. Each character has a unique personality that keeps the reader engaged. There is also a surprise twist at the ending.
