Meh. I tried getting into this book... but even at the very end, I found myself caring very little about any of it's characters. The heroine, Story, has an annoying habit of using "bullet points" while she's talking, and her sister Holly uses text abbreviations throughout her conversations, which was also grating. The mystery itself was very clumsy. I knew who the culprit was by the second or third chapter, while Story led the plot around on several "wild goose chases". There were a few funny moments, and just a bit of snappy dialogue, but overall not enough, so the book was just ok for me. Don't think I'll be reading book 2 in this series because I just wasn't interested enough at the end.

Buzz Off by Hannah Reed is an easy read about he life of a hobbiest beekeeper. It is well organized with great fluency. It is also a wonderful book that doesn't include the typical romance erotic language. Great for teen to adults. A refreshing change of all the pocket paperback novels.
Helpful Score: 1
I liked it. Good mystery with many questions to be answered. The information about bee keeping was also quite interesting. There were a few parts of unnecessary info about grapes and other things that annoyed me, but overall it was enjoyable. I plan to read the next in the series.

Highly recommended. A great cozy.

I really enjoyed the book Buzz Off, it kept me wondering who the killer was until the last 10 pages or so. I can't hardly wait to read the rest of the series. Hannah Reed is a great cozy mystery author.
A great start to a new series! Will definitely read the next one!
I really enjoyed this book and can't wait for the next one to come out in May!
Could not get into this book.....I did not even finish it !
