About A Deadly Inside Scoop:
IMHO: A Deadly Inside Scoop
I haven't had so much fun reading a book in so long! A Deadly Inside Scoop has some genuinely sweet and laugh out loud moments. It's down to earth and not a zany adventure.
I enjoyed Bronwyn's reluctance to start investigating. She's not naturally inclined or experienced with it. The police suspecting her father makes sense and a clear motive for her to snoop about. Her family warns against it but she does have a friend like us readers, which is a fun dynamic.
Bronwyn's got friends and families and fellow business owners and customers that pop of the page. It's a healthy mix and blend of people that are memorable but don't steal the show or blend together.
Love how being one of the few black families in the area and the newb murder investigator are addressed headon in the text early and that's it. Handled perfectly.
There's an admirer but no real romance. Bronwyn's got too many things to do and isn't looking for a date right now. I'm relieved at the moment but I'm looking forward to seeing how it goes.
The mystery is excellent. Bronwyn makes a great amatuer slueth out of the gate. She's not oblivious or tries too hard. I didn't guess the murderer early. There aren't any problems or annoyances that pull you out of the story. I was just cruising and wondering along until they were revealed.
Wait, did I mention there's a gorgeous white Persian cat that helped pick out wallpaper?
Perfect cozy mystery with the perfect balance of characters, mystery, and fun.
Favorite Quotes from A Deadly Inside Scoop:
"What can I say? The cat knows what she likes."
I had officially joined my dad and Glynis Vale in the Village League of Liars.
Weaponizing her with all the information Google could bestow couldn't be a good thing.
She was starting to develop a newfound gift for leaping to conclusions.
