“Let’s go eat some pie and solve a mystery.”
Our main character is Birdie and she is starting to figure out her life and getting her first job at a hotel. The only problem is one of her co-workers is someone she kind of sort of knows. They work through this thankfully and become really good friends (Daniel). As they get to know each other more and talk they realize they have several things in common and start to spend there free time together trying to figure out a mystery about a person who visits the hotel at certain times of the day. They have an idea of who it could be but don’t have a way to prove it without some good detective work.
Overall I loved this book! It was so much fun to read, and I feel in love with Birdie and Daniel. The other characters especially Birdies’ ‘aunt’ were so much fun to read about. Her aunt was truly a character and I loved the relationship they had.
“Family isn’t always blood, and it isn’t contained in a single tree. It’s a forest.”
The mystery part of this was some good old fashion sleuthing and I loved reading it. It was so much fun to see how they were able to figure things out and work together on them, while also bringing in people when they needed help to finding information.
We also get to see Birdie and Daniel’s friendship turn into more over time and learned to communicate with each other in a healthy way.
This book was a fun read and was exactly what I needed at the time, and perfect for a valentines read for someone who doesn’t want a romance heavy read.
