No
Flaws of characters a main focus:
No
Not a bad little story - it had an interesting twist and I liked the way the main character got drawn into the detective plot.
However, her personality changed a LOT over the course of the book - more than expected since its rather short.
there so many long, meaningful glances between the two MCs and I had hoped this would not turn into a romance of any sort.
I wish the other characters would have had more page time since they were so intriguing.
A few minor content warnings but all were mentioned more than once (none in detail though!)
All in all, a cute story & I plan to read the next when it comes out.
