I find the writing in books like this really clever, as the incricacies of the mundane (in this case the way Molly cleans a room) really get inside the main character's head. It's filled with emotion and brilliantly thought out characters, and I flew through it so quickly.
The plot is a little predictable at times, but threw in enough curve balls to keep me guessing. I'm excited by the idea that there will be more books featuring Molly the Maid!

This book has nothing to do with the Netflix series 🙈 it turned out to be so much up my alley and I thoroughly enjoyed it!
Molly is a maid at the Regency Grand and I think a good way to describe her character is Sheldon from the Big Bang Theory. She was raised by her grandmother and is very trusting of everyone and takes them at their word.
Molly ends up being framed for murder and her friends help her figure out what’s gone on after she’s been arrested.
I flew through this book in a couple of sittings.
Have you made an error picking up a book with a similar title you thought was another before? Luckily for me, this was totally up my alley and a great mistake on my part.
Thank you to Netgalley, the author and Penguin Random House Canada for the eARC in exchange for my honest review.
