5.0

I feel like this series is getting better with every book. I must admit that Sunflowers has become my favourite one for now (I literally gulped it in one afternoon).

The story is pretty similar to the first two. We have a dead body and Gwen, who is trying to help Detective Hottie solve the case by talking to the people in their little town. I like how the body was found in this book; it was definitely my favourite scene. Also, the way how the author always manages to throw us in many different directions just to let us find out that the killer is someone totally different than we thought, is amazing.

The characters are already in my heart, and I love all of them (yes, even Chris, but not THAT much). They are incredibly written and funny, which I really appreciate because humour in the books is important to me. I especially enjoyed the scenes with Penny in this book.

I read, that this book can be read without the other two, but trust me, you will really enjoy all of them together and this one is a huge cherry on the top (for now, I am definitely expecting at least one more).
