Thank you @berkleypub @prhaudio @getredpr for a copy of the book.
I have enjoyed this series and was excited to be back with the gang. This one was my least favorite of the 5.
I enjoyed the setting of the story with the big corn festival and how Adeena was considered a murder suspect and how Lila and her aunties tried to get to the bottom of it.
The suspects were just too obvious to be not the killer and I guessed the killer which is pretty rare for me. I did enjoy seeing the dynamics with Adeena, Elena and Lila as they navigate the fine line with relationships.
I always enjoy seeing the aunties and wanted them to have a bigger role in the story. I felt they were background in this story.
I don't know why but I was a bit annoyed at how many times we were told how hot Jae was. It felt like we were told every chapter.
Danice Cabanela did a good job as Lila and bringing all the fun characters to life.
