It took me quite a while to get into this book. At some points it was difficult to tell whether it was Marjorie or Clementine speaking, and there were certain points at which I found the characters, Clementine in particular, hard to like. However, I found myself wanting to know what happens next. Overall, this is a cozy mystery with a cute, elderly, lesbian couple at its heart. The death is catalyst for the mystery is pretty horrific though for something defined as cozy
Graphic: Blood and Car accident
Moderate: Death and Medical trauma
Minor: Gun violence
