A Novel Murder (by E. C. Nevin)

I would say this is less of a mystery thriller and more of just a cozy mystery. I felt like the characters were not that well developed and just fell flat for me. I did like the book fair festival aspect and think it would be enjoyable to attend one. The killer reveal took a little too long which caused me to struggle with staying invested in the story. But I enjoyed the vibe of the small English village and the entertaining dialogue.

Thank you to NetGalley and Knopf for my advanced review copy. All opinions and thoughts are my own.
