Book review of The Botanist’s Assistant by Peggy Townsend Towering, routine-following and totally brilliant, Margaret Finch is a sleuth to remember in Peggy Townsend’s The Botanist’s Assistant.

Peggy Townsend's The Botanist’s Assistant is a cozy mystery rooted in academic infighting and poisonous plants. Perfect for fans of The Maid, Lessons in Chemistry, and academic mysteries.

My 4yo daughter had trouble falling asleep tonight because she couldn’t stop thinking about the book we’re reading. Night of the Ninjas by Mary Pope Osborne has her captivated. What happened to Morgan? Is she under a spell? My girl had too many questions to sleep 😂

Why is it that I can dream up gorgeous, lyrical prose while doing the dishes or showering, but when I get a chance to sit down at the computer, I forget how words work?
