I loved this book. Visiting a copy of my favorite book of 2023, when I came across this one. What caught my eye was the cross word on the front. Once I read about the eccentricities of the main character I immediately knew it was going to be good ◡̈

Very fun read for me - really enjoyed almost all of it. Would have been a 4.5 or 4.75 on enjoyment scale for me if not for the last page. I’m sure many people will love it, but the character revelation at the very end soured the whole book for me a bit.

5.0

What a fun and spunky cast of characters. Great group of women who don’t feel that society pays much attention to them, uplifting each other, and becoming great friends, while solving murders.

The mystery was well written, most clues I found out as the characters did though I did guess some on my own. The over all plot formed well throughout the story and even though I figured out part of the mystery the murderer was a surprise.
