77/2021 Primer libro de una saga de casi treinta libros y ya os digo que me los voy a leer todos porque es la cosa más fácil de leer de la historia.

Agatha deja su trabajo de publicista para llevar una vida tranquila en los Cotswolds y no puede empezar su vida allí peor, y como es como una tanqueta decide que la mejor manera de integrarse en el pueblo es haciendo trampas en el concurso de quiches, todo muy normal. Y sale mal, pero muy mal.

Total, que se lía la manta a la cabeza y como va a su bola total, pues venga, a investigar. Y claro, va a acabar siendo la Jessica Fletcher de los Cotswolds.

Muy entretenido y fenomenal para el verano.

Outdated and politically incorrect/offensive at times.

Apparently I read this book already seven years ago, but I could not remember it so here we are again! I do enjoy a good, cozy mystery and Agatha raisin is exactly what I wanted

Hmmm. I found Agatha to be rather unpleasant, but I can see the potential for her to change throughout the series. I've heard nothing but great things about this author so I am willing to continue with a couple more books in the series to see if I can warm up to the characters.

The first in the Agatha Raisin series, and I find her funny and loveable as she tries to solve mysteries in her small town.

It was okay, made me hungry and laugh out loud a few times. May read a few more books!
