The standout element of this book was the fibromyalgia rep, which was so refreshing and brilliant to read. Other than that, this was a fun read but ultimately felt a little long winded and sadly didn’t grip me as much as I’d hoped it would.

The tagline of “The Undetectables” by Courtney Smyth is “Be gay. Solve crimes. Take naps.” I mean, how can you resist that? Instead of a private investigator who is solitary, belligerent, and underslept, we have a witch with fibromyalgia, two best friends, and a very dramatic ghost who must spend eternity in cat ears and whiskers. Not to mention a magical serial murderer on the loose. Hooray for interdependent queers having adventures. A delightful read. Can’t wait to see what comes next.
