This was a cute enjoyable read, but there wasn’t much to it. I absolutely loved the premise but I feel like the authors made this story too cozy and simplistic; the murderer was kind of obvious and most of the book was people just running around clueless not getting any more facts about the case. It definitely had a whimsical tone, but in some ways it felt a little forced/scripted. I wish there was just a little bit more depth to this book to add more interest. I will read the other books in the series, but I am not sure if I will purchase them or if I will just borrow from the library.

This was a cute little mystery set in a woodland world. I liked the atmosphere, but the mystery wasn’t grabbing me enough to make me too invested in the outcome. Not sure enough breadcrumbs we’re laid to make the ending satisfying enough, but I’m not regretting reading it.

5.0

This was such a cozy murder mystery! Some mystery books are very intense and have you biting your nails the whole time, but this one was very relaxing and comforting. I didn't know who the murderer was until the very end, and the plot was much more complex than I thought a book with animals as the main characters ever could be. I will definitely be reading the rest of the series!
