Murder Takes a Vacation: A Novel

I could see this as a movie, and I would probably like it. I liked the book as well. There’s plenty of cozy and not a lot of sleuthing or that much focus on the mystery but it still worked for me… but it would have been even better with more focus on that.

There’s plenty of talk about the MCs weight and I don’t understand why until the end of the book, in the authors note she mentions that she’s been called “ageist” and “antifat” and wanted to change that and do better, does she succeed in this? Maybe not.

The MC in the beginning especially comes across as a grandparent you worry about getting scammed, I thought she was lying when she said she had worked with a private investigator. It’s a bit unbelievable.

That said, I liked her regardless and I might give the authors other books a try.
