I liked the cozy vibes of the bakery and the cat and the amateur sleuthing.
I noticed from the beginning that the main character had very "not like other girls" vibes and criticized other women's appearances and career choices. She's kind of mean.
Of course elements of the sleuthing were far fetched.
Overall I really enjoyed reading this and finished it in two days! It made me realize I need to get into the cozy mystery genre, but perhaps with more modern series that are less sexist.
