A charming and light-hearted romp through Moose County. While the topic is murder, the story is told in an engaging and lively way. A quick read!

I was rereading this book (the series was a childhood favorite that I used to read with my grandmother), but not even heavy nostalgia could stop the misogyny in this book from making it unreadable.

3.5 stars. I enjoyed the character development and the progression of the storyline. The mystery part felt a little recycled from gotchas from earlier in the series and Scooby Doo type antics. Some of the pet related suspense hit a little close to home for me. That was written in a way that to some might seem extreme but I found it very relatable.

This book was enjoyable, it just felt like the author had a deadline and a little less creative flow. Its a pleasant addition to this series of cozy mysteries.
