I liked this book, but I did not love it. I felt that the plot was slow and the characters themselves were not developed as much as I would have liked. I also feel that the sexual content, while mild, was more explicit than necessary. Note while this is considered a "Cozy murder mystery", several hard topics are discussed in the process as the four main characters get to know each other. These include domestic and child abuse, teen pregnancy, drunk driving...to name a few. That being said, I do think the theme of friendship through adversity was a nice touch to the story.
