Twelve Slays of Christmas by Jacqueline Frost
4.0
Twelve Slays of Christmas is a promising start to a new series! The idea for a Christmas Tree farm for the setting was something that I have never read before and it was really fun to explore. It is such a unique idea for a series. I really liked the idea behind the Reindeer Games hosted on the tree farm leading up to Christmas. All of the games were creative and sounded like a lot of fun to play. I kind of wish there was something like that where I live! This was the perfect book to get me in the mood for the holiday season.
I enjoyed the characters in this book. Cookie and Caroline were very likable side characters. I hope we get to see more of them in the next book. Holly was a likable character for the most part and I enjoyed learning about her and her family members. There were instances where I noticed that Holly is a lot like the lead female in the author's other series, the Kitty Couture mysteries, in that she could be a little over the top and dramatic at times. I liked Sheriff Gray as well. I appreciated that instead of focusing on one person as a suspect, he considered all options.
The mystery kept my attention and I was second guessing myself about my suspicions on who the killer was. My suspicion kept bouncing from person to person and I wasn't able to figure it out, so the reveal was a shocker! The killer wasn't who I expected it to be.
I am looking forward to reading the next book in the series.
