A review by bookhoarders_anonymous
The Unlocking Season by Gail Bowen

4.0

This is the first of Gail Bowen's book I have read however, this is book #19 in the Joanne Kilbourne Mysteries. I actually really enjoyed this mystery, it had some good twists and turns and had me wanting more. What was interesting was the mix of family drama and mystery as Joanne was helping write a screen-play based on her life and her friend's when they were young. There were a lot of characters to keep track of but if you've read some of the other novels I feel like you wouldn't be as lost sometimes. However, I feel like you can read this as a standalone story as the mystery was presented and solved within the book.

I love that this book was written by a Canadian Author and was set in Canada, it is always fun being able to recognize places and support local!

I will definetly be keeping my eyes out for others in the series to get to know Joanne and her family so much better!
