Summary: A delightful and magnetic cozy mystery - with a twist!
Comment: This charming and original first novel by Ellen Edwards Kennedy is an ideal companion for a bubble bath or a secret dash away to a favorite chair. Each page offers a natural, easy escape into the pleasant and very real world of Miss Prentice, whose gentle character, poignant insights and constant (and mysterious!) challenges will draw you into the story from the first line forward, and will keep you guessing until the very end. Ms. Kennedy's talent with dialogue and character description are especially striking. Also particularly moving is the deftness with which she draws the reader into the very fabric of each scene, weaving careful, creative and very realistic detail throughout the text, blending plot, character, and setting into a living, breathing, and very believable literary tapestry. Irregardless of Murder is a pleasure to read, and I look forward to seeing more from this up-and-coming author!

Summary: Irregardless of Murder Delivers Suspense and Character
Comment: A masterfully-drawn amateur sleuth, Amelia Prentice is the kind of woman we all want to grow up to be--strong, independent, and respected for her mind. She is also charming and vulnerable, characteristics that make her equally appealing. A younger version of Miss Marple, she is decidely more open to life's possibilities, and the rekindling of a former love just adds icing to this delicious confection of a mystery.
Miss Prentice's keen mind and flawless instincts are put to work when one of her former students is found murdered near the library copying machine.Her ensuing journey of discovery introduces Miss Prentice to a host of interesting characters, and Edwards Kennedy's sure hand with characterization keeps the reader enthralled. In the end, we are not only shocked to discover the identity of the murderer, but reluctant to say goodbye to Amelia Prentice.

Summary: Boring & Predictable !!
Comment: IRREGARDLESS Of MURDER was a predictable mystery which made this book a chore to get through. I will not be buying any more books by Ellen Edwards Kennedy any time soon !!
