It was a good cozy mystery but I didn’t like Agatha’s personality. She was always trying to get a guy and got jealous every time someone payed attention to a younger woman and not her.

I felt that she was very petty about other women getting the attention of guys.  She would be jealous and catty.

Otherwise, I enjoyed the murder mystery plot.
