Dead to the Last Drop by Cleo Coyle

3.0

This wasn’t as bad as the previous book but this was still really disappointing. I like the west village and the small setting- this has gotten too big and too complicated. I don’t like the flashback way of writing or how she’s smarter than the FBI etc. These aren’t cozies anymore- they’ve become more like any old mystery novel and are losing their charm.

The author took away all of the familiar characters besides mike and Clare with some only brief appearances by the characters I’ve grown to love.

I plan to see this series through at this point but if this was the first book I read I wouldn’t pick up another.
