A Taste for Murder by Claudia Bishop
1.0
I have rarely come across book in which every single character is so singularly obnoxious, stupid, or both!
I normally like the cozy formula of the small town filled with characters and kooks. But usually at least SOME of them are likeable, or, at the very least, people you can feel sorry for. Not here! Even Quill, who is placed in the role of amateur sleuth, and who is the only character I *might* have connected with, lets people push her around and take advantage of her to a ridiculous, and unnecessary degree.
There was a lot of potential in this series, but I can't connect to a story when all I want to do with every single character in the book is smack them across the face. This is a DNF for me, and I absolutely would not recommend it.
