Sasha Silverman and her family are gearing up for the busy holiday season in Silver Hollow. Not only do they have the Annual Tree Lighting and the Festival of Lights Parade, but Silver Bear Shop won a Teddy Bear Keepsake contest with their entry, Beary Potter. The theme of their sales promotion for the new bear is "The Magic of Christmas.'' Sales are brisk, so the holiday season is going to be busy, busy, busy. It's the day of the lighting and parade...the kickoff of the annual Christmas season. Sasha's mom is coordinating the events. Everything is going perfectly until the parade mascot, Santa Bear, doesn't show up on time. The mayor, Cal Bloom, is supposed to greet the kids, pass out candy and lead the parade.....but the holiday bear is a no-show. Imagine the shock when Sasha and her mother discover the mayor dead -- in the bear suit -- on a park bench. Can Sasha and her group of gossipy pals in Silver Hollow discover who killed the mayor in time to save the holiday season? I have always liked teddy bears, so I love this cute, cozy mystery series! Have Yourself a Beary Little Murder is the 3rd book in the Shamelessly Adorable Teddy Bear Mystery series. I enjoyed this story just as much as the first two! I couldn't help but feel very sorry for Sasha's mom. She worked so hard to coordinate the huge town event to kick off the holidays....and then someone murders the parade mascot. Oh my....that would be awful!!! Sorry kids....um....santa bear is dead. Yikes! The mystery moved along at a nice pace and there were plenty of suspects and some surprises to keep my interest going. The front cover is incredibly cute as usual. I like Sasha as a main character. She loves her job and her family and is intelligent, determined and skilled at sleuthing. The quirky side characters make this series a fun one to read, along with the teddy bear background theme. The bears don't overpower the mystery part of the plot.....they just add in a splash of cuteness. Enjoyable, cute read! I will definitely be eagerly awaiting the next book! **I voluntarily read an advanced readers copy of this book from Kensington via NetGalley. All opinions expressed are entirely my own.** The Silver Bear Shop and Factory won the Teddy Bear Keepsake Contest and Sasha Silverman along with her family are thrilled even though it means that along with their normal workload at Christmas time they will also be producing a wizard bear - Beary Potter. When the annual tree lighting ceremony and Christmas parade are preparing to start, Santa Bear is nowhere to be found. The Silverman's start the hunt and find the Mayor in the Santa Bear costume - dead - apparently electrocuted. Feeling the need to clear up how the Santa Bear was killed, Sasha starts her own investigation. Not sure that the premise of Sasha trying to solve the murder really floats well here, but I do love the stories that have all the bears!

It is almost Christmas, and Sasha Silverman is in the thick of Silver Hollow's celebrations. When the newly-reelected mayor is found dead shortly before the big parade, Sasha's mother begs her to investigate. Sasha is reluctant--and too busy with her teddy bear factory and shop and all of the attendant holiday events--but she finds herself interviewing people and speculating anyway. An enjoyable mystery, full of fluff and teddy bears. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

This book can be read as a stand alone, but I must admit to being a bit confused as to who all the characters are (and there do seem to be a lot of them!) and what they do and how they relate to each other.
I don't think much of Sasha as a business manager. If they're as busy as she keeps saying due to the holidays and the production of the Beary Potter bear, then she really shouldn't have time to be doing things like investigating a murder. She should be seeing to the business concerns she's so worried about. ( )
