Carolyn Haines' Blue Christmas Bones was so much fun! In this adventure Sarah Booth et al. decide to go to Tupelo for an Elvis Christmas. At the festival they are attending a $3M belt is stolen and the owner tasks Sarah Booth and the crew on finding the belt. They are new in town and local law enforcement isn't very helpful. How will they solve the mystery of the missing belt?

I really liked this book. I was laughing out loud at some of the antics the crew got into. My favorite part was that we got to visit a new city so most of the suspects are completely new to the ladies. However, I think I figured out the mystery a little quickly which is why I took a star off, because it felt pretty obvious but it did not detract from the fun at all. I think I need to go back and read the entire series because what I've read so far is just so much fun! 

I recommend this cozy mystery to anyone who likes cozy mysteries and anyone who is interested in a little bit of paranormal in their mysteries. Amateur sleuths who see ghosts are the best!

Thank you to NetGalley, St. Martin's Press, Minotaur Books, and Carolyn Haines for giving me the opportunity to read this ARC in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own.
