#bookreview By Hook Or By Book By Misty Simon @parternsincrimetours

Synopsis

Roxy Gleason, an innkeeper by trade and a bibliomancer by birth, has lived in the same small town on the Susquehanna River in Central Pennsylvania for her entire life. Tradition is strong here. Roxy understands the rules and is willing to play by them most of the time. She runs the Charmed Inn, which has been in her family for decades.

The inn is all set to host a writers’ professional business weekend that’s been planned down to the very last hand-folded napkin, and Roxy is ready for the influx of creatives. She knows she’ll have a lot of different and sometimes unusual personalities to deal with, but this is a yearly function, so she’s not expecting anything to go awry.

Her expectations are completely tanked when she finds a dead body on her daily walk by the river’s shore. Owen Schultz had checked in for the conference a few hours ago, and she’d last seen him having tea with her aunt in the dining room.

How did he get down here on the ferry, and who killed him?

Review/ My thoughts

By Hook or by Book is a cozy paranormal story about Roxy who runs her family bed and breakfast. Roxys inn is having a Writers event, and she ia running around trying to get things together. In the midst of getting ready for the event one of her guest is found dead near the river.
Roxy takes what she leanred from books to try to solve the mystery of who killed this guest and why? Why now during this writers event?

Roxy is a big reader , and i liked that about her. She does this  thing where she can flip a page and find the answer to what she needs to be on the page. 

I like the paranormal aspect of the story. If you like cozy mystery with touch of paranormal i think youll like this story.
