Reviews
""I love Murder In The Dressing Room! What a fantastic read… every single character came to life in my mind. Holly is such an imaginative writer and storyteller… Through reading every page I was one hundred percent invested and felt as if I were a drag queen detective myself. Call me JUJU MISTY BEE moving forward. I can’t wait for the next installment of this one of its kind story.” -Jujubee ""Murder in the Dressing Room provides all the comfort and entertainment of a traditional amateur sleuth story, but from a wholly new and absolutely enthralling perspective. A page-turning mystery, larger than life protagonist, and a behind the scenes look at the glamorous and gritty world of drag…what more could you want?"" –Mia P. Manansala, author of the Agatha, Anthony, and Macavity Award-winning Arsenic and Adobo “This mystery promises to be the start of an outstanding new series; listeners will find themselves cheering for Misty and her clumsy detective work. In addition to plenty of laughs, Stars’s witty queer cozy offers good twists and some truly heartfelt moments.” - Library Journal, starred review “Stars capitalizes on the popularity of drag and uses this deceptively frothy book to comment on the place of its performers in the queer community and in the world, making serious points about discrimination and community.” - The Washington Post ""Move over Miss Marple, there’s a new amateur detective in town, and she can solve murders in sequins and six inch heels. Cosy, clever and camp, with a truly unique heroine to cheer for, Murder in the Dressing Room is an absolute delight."" –Freya Sampson, USA Today bestselling author of Nosy Neighbors ""Murder In The Dressing Room is as bright and sassy as its cover. A witty, sparkly, cozy mystery that I lapped up with delight. I can't wait for more from Holly Stars!"" -Tess Amy, author of The Confidence Games ""The fabulous Holly Stars has burst onto the cozy murder mystery scene with the amateur sleuth I never knew I needed—drag queen Misty Divine is fierce, confident, and oh so glamourous… Entertaining, touching, and a lot of fun"" - Ashley Tate, author of instant Canadian bestseller Twenty Seven Minutes ""[W]arm, humorous, and hugely important…I think we have a new queen of crime!"" - Emily Critchley, author of One Puzzling Afternoon
