A Fun Little Who Done It


Quote:📖
“I don’t know. I don’t…they all started throwing up and groaning. Maybe it was something they ate?” She gave me an anguished look as a stream of ice promptly slithered down my backbone. It looked like we were in deep, deep trouble.


Thoughts: 💡
This is a cozy mystery that’s exciting but not scary. There were lots of twists that kept me guessing over who actually committed the crime and how they accomplished it. There is also a continuation of the relationship between the FMC Roxy and her boyfriend Nate.

Writing Mechanics: ✍️
This word flow and grammar are easy to follow without any obvious typos. The plot has a medium pace without anything too dark or twisted. The characters all have backstories and the FMC has a lot of depth to her character.

Fun Bits:
⚜️ Exciting Twists
⚜️ Creative Plot
⚜️ Sweet Snippets Of Romance
⚜️ Tight Friendships
⚜️ Delicious Food Descriptions

Important Note:✨
This is book 2. The mystery is a standalone and can be read on it’s own, but there is a continuing storyline for the FMC especially the plot points related to her romantic relationship.

I was SO excited to receive this one, I read it in one day! I was immediately obsessed with the cover and the synopsis was right up my alley. This was a fun cozy mystery that I would highly recommend. I loved the characters and the small town setting. This is the first book I’ve read by this author but I am excited to read more. Overall, this was an enjoyable read.
