lots of fun overall, not too serious, simple prose, did a good job of putting me in the mind of a sheep, enjoyed all the twists and turns, i think i've gotten sheep stuck in my head after this if i'm honest because i keep repeating sheep analogies and metaphors in my head - keen for the sequel and keen for the movie - also love that miss maple is a pastiche of miss marple - i do think it's a very well constructed narrative

Une histoire très originale et chouette, même si à mon avis un peu trop longue. Recommandé aux amoureux des moutons !

Things are 'complicated' here because the main characters are sheep. But they somehow get it together using each of their special skills to solve the mystery. It was an uber-unique pov on a traditional mystery novel. Loved it.

This was a cute book, and I enjoyed the Irish accents on the audio book. George's flock of sheeps, shocked by his murder, band together to try and solve the mystery. It's a slow moving, quiet book - I mean, it's about a flock of sheep. But it's very sweet, and I love the way the sheep think about humans.

A really unique way to tell a story. The sheep are interesting. And the solving of the case was unexpected. There’s a lot of sheep and I had a hard time keeping track on the audio version.
