Not bad. Entertaining enough for a long afternoon with no plans.
Be prepared to hear lots about vegan dishes & have facts repeated multiple times.
The characters are kinda wooden.
there didn't feel like much emergency, even though this is supposed to be a murder mystery.
All of the twists were predictable.
Probably won't reread & honestly not sure if I'm going to continue the series.

Book came off as incredibly pretentious at times. Yes I understand why she has the taste she does but it felt like with every page turn they were more references to her tailored cloths, vegan diet, and herbs. I swear one part mentioned the calming effects three times in two paragraphs. I have nothing against any of those things but when it's mentioned so often it starts to grate on the nerves. I also don't like the theme that you can't truly be happy unless you have some sort of friend group around you. Like your lacking unless you let people in.
However, I did enjoy it over all, especially towards the end when the mystery wrapped up.
