This was an enjoyable and quick read. I liked the main character, Meddy, quite a bit, despite finding the entire premise of the death behind the entire plot to be completely unbelievable. I think the aunties were all fully thought out characters, too, and would've liked to learn more about their family wedding business! There were a few spots, generally in the last quarter of the book, that felt like we made some pretty big leaps in dialogue and character thinking that didn't jacket in the first 3/4s of the book. So those made it feel a little like the book was rushing to consider, which isn't my favorite thing to have happen. Despite that, though, I will look to read the rest of the series
