Cute lil book although I don't think cozy mysteries are for me. I struggled with the beginning - the story setup and character building felt a little cringe. The humor is VERY millennial. BUT the vibes were still immaculate. I had a really fun time following the story and just enjoyed listening. 

I also thought the representation was well done. It felt very natural to the story and added to it, rather than just being there
