Enjoyable, romp. Hint of romance. Crime caper.

I read the first book in this series a year ago, and thought it was just okay. I was expecting the same from this one, but I was surprised how nice it was to be jumping back into this storyline. The mystery and side plots got deeper, but the humor from the first book was still maintained and I love the characters even more! Definitely read this if you enjoyed the first one!!

Very disappointed in this book :( . I loved the premise but too much sexual language for my taste.

I really enjoyed this sequel to Finlay Donovan Is Killing It! It was adventurous, funny, and just as charming as the first one. I still loved Finlay and Vero's relationship as well as the cozy family dynamics with Delia, Zach, and Fin's parents. 

The plot was super crazy and adventurous which I really enjoyed, although I read the first book almost a year ago so at times it was a bit hard to follow all the allusions to what happened before. I would also say that the plot got perhaps a little bit too crazy for me and it became a bit hard to follow at times. 

I also didn't love how focused the sequel was on Finlay's love life and the love triangle with Nick and Julian. I did enjoy the sexual tension but I just thought it took away the focus from the mystery and the relationship between Finlay and Vero that I enjoyed a lot more. 

It got a bit silly at times, as is routine for a cozy mystery, like things being overly dramatic or too convenient, but I didn't mind that too much. Overall though, this was a solid sequel with much of the humor, adventure, and charm of the first book. We got a reveal at the end that I really enjoyed but there's quite a few things that remained a mystery so I'm super excited for the third instalment of this series!!
