I will follow Pip wherever she goes. What a great character, complex and flawed and full of life. There’s much about this second outing that will please fans of the first book - fun format, a wide cast of characters / suspects, great dynamic between Pip and Ravi, and some serious sleuthing.
Perhaps it isn’t quite as twisty, and somehow for me, didn’t give me the same cozy vibe I had when reading the first book. I wasn’t turning the pages as compulsively. Still, it was cleverly done and complex. It was a solid second in the series and left me more than eager for the final installment.
This series is BEGGING to be made into a TV show. Just sayin’
