This is a good little novella. I appreciated the extra insight into Vero's character, as well as the little mystery that took place. It wasn't amazing, but it was enjoyable and a quick read.

I loved the atmosphere, but that's about it. I couldn't really get into the mystery, and was left wondering why I was supposed to care about any of the characters. There were some beautifully written scenes towards the end that pulled on the heart strings, but it was too little too late as far as becoming attached to the characters.

I found there to be a lot of moments where something began to get interesting but nothing stuck the landing. Lots of potential here that just didn't quite succeed at getting past the “good” stage to become “great”.

Had a good time with this one, and it's one of my favorite plots in the series so far. Some of the scenes had me cracking up, and the mystery was well thought out. The writing was, as always, and wonderful balance between humor, cleverness, romance, and mystery. The only thing bringing down my rating is the repetitive nature of the books. The format of each book is a good one, yes, but too much of a good thing rings true here. I will likely take a break before moving on the to next book.

I enjoyed this one, but it didn't hook me until the last half. Definitely interested in continuing the series!

I trudged through this one. I couldn't get into it, no matter how hard I tried. It took me close to 3 weeks to read, and honestly I should have just DNFed it, but I wanted to know how it ended. While there were plenty of twists, none of them felt satisfying since I never really felt connected to the story.
