Still Life by Louise Penny
2.5
mysterious slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

I wish I liked it better but it just wasn’t quite my cup of tea. I am all for a slow mystery, but I just felt like the world and characters felt a bit too flat which made the story drag. 
It sounds like this was Louise Penney’s first novel, and that the subsequent novels get better… So since it is so popular, I could see myself reading more in the series.
