The setting was cozy, but there were jarringly racist descriptions, weird homophobia, persistent fatphobia, and the mystery itself was only meh. Apparently recent books of the series continue to have racist language (without any condemnation by the story), so this can’t be chocked up to being from “another time” (though the 90’s were not that long ago..)

I won’t be continuing the series.
