Plot or Character Driven: N/A
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

Very disappointed in this book. It was more daily life & complaints (about EVERYTHING - covid, parents, rich people, police, technology, politics, IKEA furniture, romance.) Than mystery.
The ball doesn't even get rolling on the mystery until 57% of the way, and even then it is two pages. The next time the big mystery rolls around the book is already 90% done!! The entire mystery is 24 pages long & wrapped up incredibly easily.
The first book was such a delight & I was very looking forward to this one, but i barely made it through half way before being extremely frustrated.
There's almost no story & the characters are much more flat than they were last book.
