Can't Wait Wednesday/Waiting on Wednesday #530: Another Fine Mess by Lindy Ryan

 

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event that had been hosted by Jill over at Breaking the Spine where we spotlighted upcoming releases we are eagerly anticipating. I'm now linking up with Can't Wait Wednesday hosted over at Wishful Endings. 

From the publisher: 

From Lindy Ryan, "one of the “most electrifying voices in the horror genre” (Gwendolyn Kiste), Another Fine Mess brings the Evans women back around in this unputdownable, crackling, rollicking mystery of humor, heart, and horror.

Making sure dead things stay buried is the family business ...

For over a hundred years, the Evans women have kept the undead in their strange southeast Texas town from rising. But sometimes the dead rise too quick–and that’s what left Lenore Evans, and her granddaughter Luna, burying Luna’s mother, Grace, and Lenore’s mother, Ducey. Now the only two women left in the Evans family, Luna and Lenore are left rudderless in the wake of the most Godawful Mess to date.

But when the full moon finds another victim, it’s clear their trouble is far from over. Now Lenore, Luna, and the new sheriff—their biggest ally—must dig deep down into family lore to uncover what threatens everything they love most. The body count ticks up, the most unexpected dead will rise–forcing Lenore and Luna to face the possibility that the undead aren’t the only monsters preying on their small town.

Another Fine Mess by Lindy Ryan is expected out April 15th, 2025 from Minotaur Books.

Why am I waiting on this book? I enjoyed reading the first book in the series, Bless Your Heart. So, when I saw this one coming out I added it to my TBR list right away. Thanks to Barb at Booker T's Farm - Books and Nails and Puppy Dog Tales for showcasing it last week and bringing it to my attention. In the first book I enjoyed that it is women in a family business fighting the things that go bump in the night. And they do it with humor and genuinely care for each other. This time around it looks like the sheriff will join forces with them. 

What book are you waiting on? Share it or a link in the comments so we can check it out and maybe add it to out TBR lists. Thanks for coming by and Happy Reading!
