I thought I’d enjoy this satirical cosy mystery, but it’s so full of casual misogyny, fatphobia and classism, it might be better left in the past.

The book has an interesting structure. The murder is not the beginning of the story, it happens smack in the middle.
We get to know the main character, the title character, through the lens of other characters first.
