I didn't like this one as much as I liked the first two books in the series :/ Side stories about the main character's family and about other townspeople were mostly unresolved at the end, making you wonder why they were even included -- in the first book, these tangents gave the story some personality, but by now they just felt like filler. Also, unlike the other two books, which gave me just enough clues to keep me guessing right up until the end, the mystery in this story involved so many convoluted lines of reasoning that by about halfway through the book I found I'd stopped guessing because I was totally lost. Still an entertaining read though, and might be a solvable mystery for readers more attentive than me.

An enjoyable cozy. The time jump threw me a bit but I think it was a smart move on the author’s part.

The descriptions in this book reminded me of a travel to Ireland that took place more than 25 years ago.
The people, the dialogues, and the situations were all really lovely and interesting.
I loved the plot, the description of the village, the relationship between the different characters, and the style of writing
It was really enjoyable and entertaining.
Even if it's the third instalment in a series and I didn't read the previous there was no problem in undesting the characters and their relationship.
Recommended.
Many thanks to Netgalley and Kensington Books

Better story than those previous...character development good. But goodness, what American pissed Ms. O'Connor off so very much? Sheesh with the Yank cliches on practically every page! Was she drunk when she wrote this? I mean, Irish people are all drunkards right? See, she's not the only one who can throw around tired lines about an entire nationality. Really took away from was a pretty fun read.

I had a few moments of wanting to yell at Siobhan in this one, and I don’t love the author’s distaste for Americans (thank you very much), but I continue to love the Irish Village series. I’m so sad there’s only one more.
