Body and Soul Food had an interesting set up with long lost twins coming together to start a business. The story was cute and engaging but I was a bit surprised that Keaton wasn’t very good at piecing together clues. She’s the former librarian and supposed fan of Agatha Christie, so it seemed like she should have had a better idea of how to be observant. I also found Kobe and Keaton’s views on social media to be odd. They’re supposed to be youngish adults opening a business so this and a few other details in the book made me feel like they were much older people. Regardless, I had a good time listening to this audiobook! If you’re looking for a cozy mystery with bookish vibes and comfort food, this one might be a good fit.
