Well, this was a delight. I enjoyed getting to know this quirky, lovable cast of characters - the murder solving was just an intriguing bonus, for me. I particularly liked getting a mix of narrators so we could see different perceptions of the same event or character. 

My only qualm, perhaps, is how the final third felt both convoluted and a bit rushed, though everything came together in the end.
