katiya 's review for:

A Bittersweet Murder by Kaz Delaney
4.0

Synopsis
Rosie Hart is, sadly, the only person at her elderly client's funeral. When Rosie is proclaimed heir to the estate and almost simultaneously the sole suspect in the senior's murder, she is left reeling. Rosie knows that she isn't the killer, so who is?

Characters
The main character, Rosie Hart, is an all-around good egg. She'd make a brilliant best friend. Similarly, and for the most part, the people Rosie meets are kind and hard-working. They set the stage for a wonderful small town.

The Setting
The small town of Airlie Falls, Texas is a village surrounded by farms and farmland. It is also an out and out special place. It's the hometown that most communities would love to be. Tight-knit but not exclusionary, its people are the heart of the area.

Thoughts
I had the hardest time putting this book down. It took forever to get things done while I was reading because of "just one more page" syndrome. And, when I learnt who was causing all the mayhem, I was shocked. I hated getting to the end of this book because it felt like a warm hug that I didn't want to end. Thankfully there are more books in the series to read!

Highly recommended to cosy lovers.
