3.5
Simple cozy mystery with an endearing protagonist & supporting cast. I recommend the audiobook, the narrator's voice is lovely. However, Molly seems to be written inconsistently. At times she has trouble understanding obvious social cues, but at other times she's very perceptive and can see through people's lies...this shifts depending on how convenient it is for her to understand things for the plot. There's nothing particularly surprising about the actual mystery except the very last reveal, which I'm not even sure how to feel about.
Graphic: Bullying, Death, and Murder
Moderate: Cancer, Drug use, Terminal illness, and Grief
