This was just an okay one for me. I'm not sure if my reading tastes have changed since the last time I read a Myrtle Clover mystery (since it was a couple of years ago) or if like some of the reviews said, this is just not as strong as others in the series. It could be both. And I was hoping it would be refreshing since it took place in a new location.

I just didn't jive with this one and I am not sure why. I still finished it since it was for a challenge and it wasn't as off-putting as others I have DNFed in the past. Honestly I think what got to me in this one, and it's super petty, is Myrtle's continued distaste for other's reading choices if they differ from her. She was a former English teacher; frankly, she should just be happy people are reading even if they're not the 'classics'.

Unsure if I'll pick up the next one in this series because this one was so 'meh' for me.
