Customer Reviews

Nancy Martin has done it again!

The sixth installment in the Blackbird Sisters Mystery series is another fun ride. With just the right amounts of murder, mayhem, sexual tension, romance, humor and clothes to die for, Ms. Martin continues to entertain and wow readers. Her descriptions are second to none. Her fresh writing will not disappoint. Nora grows stronger and is closer to finding her full potenital. Michael is still yummy. Libby and her crew is still wacky and wonderful. Emma is even more mysterious and continues to keep a step ahead of her sisters. Ms. Martin weaves another web of believable murderous fun full of intricate family relationships we all can relate to. She continues to give us a peek into the lives of the upper crust society crowd. "A Crazy Little Thing Called Death" is fun, fabulous and leaves us wanting more!

FABULOUS!

I loved this book! This book is intelligent and humorous. She knows her stuff when it comes to style, too. The characters have great personalities.

Death on the Main Line

I love Nancy Martin's Blackbird Sisters series. Having read all of Gillian Robert's Amanda Pepper series, I was well prepared to stay in Philadelphia for another series--this time in wealthy Bucks County and the even more wealthy Main Line. The idiosyncracies of the impoverished Blackbird sisters (I cannot name a favorite-they all suprise the reader), the not-what-they-seem-to-be aristocrats of Philadelphia, and the inclusion of the illegitimate son of a New Jersey crime boss give Ms. Martin plenty of room to keep coming up with new twists and turns and she does it with great success and flare.

I love this author

I have every book in this series; love them all. They are witty and romantic and funny.

Easy Read

I enjoy the Blackbird sister books - they're an easy, fast read when I don't want to think to hard about what I'm reading. I would recommend them to anyone, but would caution you to read them in order.
