This was so fun. The characters were easily likeable (though the part about Cleo wanting to be bffs with the servants was weird and out of touch ngl), the plot moved along at a good pace, and the mystery was engaging if guessable. I enjoyed it...just the "brain cleanser" I needed to finish out the month.

7/10. A fun, if predictable, escape. I'm in these for Cleo and Harry more than the mystery, hearing them squabble their way to an answer is delightful.

A little bit confusing with finding out who's cheating on the husband (or wife), then turns into a murder when the wife is dead in her drawing room. Cleopatra and Harry Armitage solves the case of whodoneit, and I have to save, even though this one is my least favorite one out of the three I've read, I've really enjoyed this one. I loved Cleo and Harry's banter, I loved how Cleo was fighting so hard to find what she wanted, and the whole other storyline about the cook pocketing the money was funny, not gonna lie. Still liked it though.
