I thoughts the characters and the writing in this book were very immature. I just could not get into it at all. The banter did nothing for me.

I read this without much context from the mystery series source material. I basically saw a sapphic detective story and decided to try it out. I don’t think I had enough context or room in the story to develop and kind of attachment to the characters. I am intrigued to try the source novels.
