The Midnight at the Blackbird Cafe pulls you in with it's small-town southern style. Everyone know everyone! Anna Kate has come back after many years, after her mother made them leave, to bury her Granny Zee and put all her affairs in order. Her grandmother had the Blackbird Cafe in town. As much as Anna Kate wanted this to be a quick trip the town, people and cafe keep drawing her in. And of course the mysterious blackbird pie that everyone keeps talking about.

I think the writing style draws you in and you can picture this small town where everyone is saying hello to each other each morning in the cafe. It's the kind of place where people hold the door for each other, or tip their hat to strangers. It's almost written like a cozy mystery you could curl up with.
