purplepenning 's review for:

The Author's Guide to Murder by Lauren Willig, Karen White, Beatriz Williams
2.75
dark hopeful lighthearted mysterious medium-paced

A decent idea but unbalanced execution. Most troublesome — the jaunty "Murder She Wrote" tone and tongue-in-cheek cozy cliches just didn't match the more serious publishing-industry #MeToo storyline or the even darker background of horrific abusive at the castle.
