The deeper you get into this series, the more you'll like it. I don't want to spoil anything so I will part with this, the book keeps you guessing and when you think you're right, YOU'RE WRONG :).

There's something comforting about reading the same story over and over again. It's a little tedious but comforting nonetheless.

I did wish for some new developments, though.

I enjoy these books. They are fun, cozy mysteries so some suspension of belief is easy for me, that the main character doesn't get in trouble for having evidence or asking nosy questions. What does bother me is how weight is talked about. Everly says she a size 12, which isn't morbidly obese or anything. It's a size smaller than the national average. If she had a few moments of self doubt or it was just the spats with her Fitbit, it would be one thing, but after a while it feels like she is constantly thinking/begrudging her weight. As a size 12-14 person, I get pulled out of the story when Everly's inner thoughts can't grasp that men like her curves.
Hopefully the next books will chill out - but I'm still looking forward to reading them.

I love this series and this one did not disappoint.  When a famous actress comes to Charm to help Everly's great aunts with their bee documentary is murdered Everly once again sets out to solve the crime and clear her aunt.  I really like the characters and the small beach town setting. The Seaside Cafe is a place I would love to visit.  The mystery was good with plenty of suspects and the solution made sense. I look for word to reading more in this series.  Enjoy
