The reason for the low-ish rating: The book was a bit predictable and I do wish there was more love triangle drama. I hope to read that in future books.

many people felt lila was an annoying and childish character but i honestly think this is an unfair read of her character. it fails to take into account what it's like to spend 5 years away from an overbearing family who see you as nothing but a child. when you treat a grown woman as a child, she's bound to act like one in response to the chafing that causes. so many times families want you to both remain a child forever while somehow managing to mature into a well rounded adult. she also was dealing with feelings of inadequacy, and an absolutely douchey detective.
lila is one of the few cozy main characters i have seen talk back to the annoying cops that are often featured in the stories which is nice because sometimes these cops will have me wanting to inkheart my way into the book and tell them a thing or two.
Moderate: Death, Drug abuse, Drug use, and Murder
