Return To Sender (A Mail Carrier Cozy Mystery Book 4) Kindle Edition

These mysteries are so fun to read. The characters speak to you and even though I'm not a Southern lady, I can picture them so well in my mind.

Tonya as always you include so many different types of,characters that everyone in your audience can relate too. The story was very engaging. I really felt sorry for the menopause symptoms but was tickled when she could use them to her advantage. My only problem was with an area in Chapter 10 (page 85 in my book). There appears to be something left out like a big cut in a movie. Bernie is accusing Iris of telling Lucy about her getting back with Mac and a special surprise. There is no hint that that Lucy, Iris conversation occurred. It didn’t really impact the story that much so I glazed over it after questioning myself a couple of times. The ending was unexpected and yet lots of clues had been included in the book. I just didn’t pick up on them.

I really enjoy this series, including this one which is #4! Bernie and Iris, along with the Front Porch Ladies are a hoot, and I love their southern ways and sayings (like “Turnip tops don’t tell you the size of the turnip!”). Bernie has given the family farm and farmhouse to her son Brady and his wife, as they are expecting their first child. She is now living in town, down from the ladies and Mac. When she finds a certified letter mistakenly put in her mailbag, she decides to go ahead and deliver it, not realizing what a Pandora’s box she is opening. Next thing you know, she’s trying to solve a murder again! A fun and often funny read, highly recommended!

Who knew that a letter sent to the wrong carrier could set events in motion that led to murder? It didn't help Berne that menopause decided to interfere.

First part of the book I was really mad at one of the characters but they redeemed themselves later! Love the characters , the setting, also so love what is happening with the characters. Great twisty mystery and a book that just made me happy to read!!!

Return To Sender by Tonya Kappes is the fourth book in the delightful Mail Carrier Series. In my opinion, Tonya hit it out of the park with this book. It is not only a delightfully charming, easy to read book, but it has all the elements of a good mystery, including suspense, twists and turns, drama and romance, but is well written in a fun, entertaining way. I loved that Bernie and Mac got together. I rated it a five.

What an amazing sleuthing murder story this was!!The characters were amazing. I loved reading and getting to know each character as the story unfolded.The storyline was incredible. I loved how the author kept me in suspense and guessing who the murder was. I had no clue until the end who the murder was and it was edge of my seat suspenseful and I enjoyed every minute of it!! Highly recommended!!

About the book,Bernadette Butler has a penchant for solving murders while keeping her ear low to the ground listening to gossip while on her mail carrier route.Bernie tries to deliver a return to sender package and a certified letter to a local man and finds him dead.When the death turns up suspicious, Bernie uses her amateur sleuthing skills along with the gossipy help of the Front Porch Ladies to cross reference who exactly in their small southern town stamped out the victim.Another great story in this series I loved it all loved how it turn out. I'm looking forward to the next in this series. I highly recommend reading it

I do enjoy all of this author's books. They always have a wee twist that you didnt expect. Dealing with a character in a menopausal period of her life is not easy but Tonya has dealt with this subject in a humorous way. I enjoy the animals in her stories being an animal lover myself. I always look forward to her new books.

It was great catching up with Bernie and gaggle. Does anyone know why the Mail Inspector turned up when he did? How much of keeping someone's registered mail is illegal? What if it had been a million dollar check and Bernie lost it? Still, the basic characters are a lot of fun, and why the killer did it always interesting.
