The Dinner Lady Detectives by Hannah Hendy
3.25
funny mysterious medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

It took me quite a while to get into this book. At some points it was difficult to tell whether it was Marjorie or Clementine speaking, and there were certain points at which I found the characters, Clementine in particular, hard to like. However, I found myself wanting to know what happens next. Overall, this is a cozy mystery with a cute, elderly, lesbian couple at its heart. The death is catalyst for the mystery is pretty horrific though for something defined as cozy
