The Marigold Cottage Murders is a cozy vibes, nosy-neighbor, multiple POV mystery that’s both a creatively written mystery and a heartwarming story of found family. A group of diverse characters live in a small cottage community in Southern California, their only traits in common being a love for their land lady and the desire to solve a murder that happened on the property. When they come together to solve it, they find more and more out about each other and connect as they unravel the mystery. There are definitely a few tough topics in this book but over all it was a less gruesome murder mystery and more of a story about people coming together. It was a great read and I would read more by the author.
