So close to the trope-y murder mystery of my heart if ONLY IT WAS MURDER SOLVING NUNS. But other than that, I quite enjoyed it.

As the book started, I was really unsure that I was going to like it. It had a tone that just felt very cliche romance novel-y.

But it got much better quickly, and ended up being very interesting and believable enough (mysteries just have to be believable ENOUGH). The motivations felt right, and I think that's one of the hardest things to do right in fiction. Enjoyed.
