This book was enjoyable, I’m not going to deny that. I liked reading about the quirky characters and their penchant for solving murders. It was an intriguing and funny premise which did in a way deliver. But the problem was that it was very slow and even though there were some twists and turns they were quite anticlimactic. There were too many character perspectives during the book that just seemed unnecessary and a bit confusing. In theory the story seems quite captivating, but in reality it never made you sit on the edge of your seat or have to read the next chapter. Unfortunately, I wasn’t that invested in the crime and I wasn’t that curious about who the murderer was which is kind of the whole point of a mystery novel. It was an enjoyable book to cruise along with, but something you could pretty easily put down.

Update Feb 2023
I’m currently rereading this for book club so it will be interesting to see how it goes a second time round.

So I just finished the audiobook and I found that helped with my enjoyment of the book because the narrator was really great and it helped me invest in the characters and storyline a bit more. I think I liked the book slightly better this time around. I still agree with my review from 2020 but I would recommend the audiobook if you’re struggling to get into the story. I think I would rate it 2.75 or 3 stars so I’ll change my rating to a 3 to be generous haha.
