By Lisa Ks Book Reviews Author Jean Flowers has made a wonderful start to her Postmistress Mystery series. DEATH TAKES A PRIORITY should be a priority on everyone’s reading list.Congratulations to author Flowers for creating a fresh subject for this cozy mystery. A lead character who is a postmistress is a nice change of pace as far as occupations go for a series protagonist. And Cassie Miller is quite a character. She’s intelligent, kindhearted, and a joy to read. All of the residents of Ashcot, Massachusetts are fun and/or quirky. I loved getting to know all of them and look forward to spending time learning even more about them in future installments.DEATH TAKES PRIORITY is a well written, fast moving story that had me captivated. A solid mystery with plenty of situations and suspect to keep the read guessing. I couldn’t wait to turn each page in this book to see what would happen next, and I was never disappointed. The reveal was surprising and action filled. The ending of the book made me wish there was already a second in the series to read right away.This series has been long overdue. DEATH TAKES PRIORITY has me stuck to the Postmistress Mystery series like a stamp is stuck to a letter!Make sure to check out the back of the book for some fun tidbits about the post office.
7 of 8 people found the following review helpful. Sadly, Death Takes Priority did not work for me. By Kim 2.5 starsReviewed by KimThere’s a saying, “Not every book is for every reader.” That statement is so true of Death Takes Priority and myself. I picked up the book expecting to like it. The cover is beautiful, the blurb grabbed my attention, and it’s the first book in the series. All things that are great. Sadly, the book is nowhere close to one of my favorite reads. There wasn't anything about it to make me want to read more of this series. I forced myself to continue reading, because not knowing what happened would drive me crazy.Cassie Miller is in her mid-thirties and has recently moved back to her small hometown of North Ashcot, Massachusetts to become the postmaster of the one man post office. She desperately wants to make friends. Just when she thinks she’s about to make a new friend and start a new relationship with Scott James, he gets hauled in by the police for the murder of a town resident. It seems Scott has his own secrets, but those are just the tip of the iceberg. North Ashcot with its three thousand residents appears to be a hot spot for unknown crimes. Cassie gets recruited to look into the murder by the victim’s sister, thinking the police have no idea how to run a murder investigation.Usually for me, the characters and the mystery are what draws me into a cozy mystery. I like that the characters are usually fun, entertaining, and likeable, making me invested in the story. Cassie Miller just rubbed me the wrong way. I didn’t find her to be fun, entertaining, or likeable. She spent a lot of the book talking about her ex-fiance who dumped her via a text message, her need to find a hobby and make friends, and how much she missed living in Boston. The secondary characters also didn’t seem to offer a whole lot, except for Ben, the semi-retired former postmaster. I had issues with elements of the storyline pertaining to Scott. Cassie did a lot of things that had me wanting to throw my book.As for the mystery and the investigation into the murder, the story turned out pretty much as I thought it would. There wasn’t any big surprises or red herrings. Death Takes Priority just wasn’t the book for me.**Received a copy from Berkley in exchange for an honest unbiased opinion.**
3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. A good read By Dru Love This was a very enjoyable fresh new cozy that is well written with a nice pace that is easy to follow. The mystery kept me intrigued as the author deftly presented this tale in a manner that pulled me into this action-packed story that had some twists and turns that enhanced the telling of this story. It was fun meeting and getting to know all the pertinent characters that comprises the residents of North Ashcot that included our heroine, postmaster Cassie, police chief Sunni, semi-retired Ben, to name a few. I enjoyed the small town atmosphere and the friendliness of the people that was met along the way to solving a crime with surprising results. This is a welcome addition to the cozy genre and I look forward to reading more stories with Cassie and the gang.
