maliazaidi 's review for:

Dishing the Dirt by M.C. Beaton

3.0

---

I'm conflicted, I am so fond of the sassy Agatha Raisin, this is my 26th adventure with her after all. Unfortunately, I found this one rather disappointing. Sooo many murders, and so many characters who were just rude and unpleasant made the story feel almost like a parody of prior Agatha books. I still liked Agatha and Charles, and whatever progress there was in their relationship, but the story was not terribly satisfying. It was a quick, easy read, but after waiting a year for a new book in this series, I just feel a bit short-changed. All the same, I will not be giving up on her yet and still look forward to a new book hopefully next year:-)
