Thanks very much to NetGalley and the creators of this book for providing me with an ARC!
This is my first cozy mystery in a while, but I was glad to return with the cold season starting. This really is what it was advertised to be: a funny, comfortable cozy mystery.
I haven't read the previous books (this is the 12th book in the 'Lady Eleanor Swift Mystery' series), but it wasn't necessary at all to be able to get everything you needed to know out of this book. I will be taking a look at the rest of the series however, I think I might enjoy those as well.
I do think it could have been a bit shorter, but I didn't really mind it too much. I like that we get to see Eleanor's thoughts quite a lot. It isn't the most original story ever written, a bit predictable at some points, but I personally don't mind that when reading cozy mysteries. I mostly come for the comfortable and fun read, not for some exquisite plot full of the craziest twists.
The descriptions were very good. The way the food is described in this book just made me hungry. I'm definitely looking forward to reading more of Verity Bright's work!
