Cute story with a fun setting but every plot felt like a sub plot; underdeveloped. Same with the characters. Interestingly, the book had little to nothing to do with the title.

This wasn’t the worst thing ever (as an audiobook) but it was pretty cheesy and not the best writing.

Loved this! Definitely ends in a cliffhanger that made me go right to book 2!
lighthearted mysterious medium-paced
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No

Fun story! Loved the small town vibes. The ending was all too neat, though. The third act twist was pretty obvious. Will continue to read this series though!

A cozy mystery shadowed in death and a Ponzi scheme.

While the writing leaves something to be desired, it’s not at all intolerable and makes for a quick read great as a pallet cleanser or even just one more book to get in before the month’s/year’s end.
