Main character too dither for me. I’ve read 3 other books while trying to soon thru this one just so I can find out whodunit. Sillier than other cozy mysteries I’ve read, no warm relationships/friendships, too many characters, and salon owner-trying-to-solve-Murder (can’t even remember her name!) is terrible “detective”. Sorry, this was just boring and silly to me.
I really enjoyed this story, several parts made me laugh so hard I was crying. Lots of unexpected twists and turns in the story. I look forward to reading another book by this author.
Light, carefree reading. Enjoyed.
typical romantic light murder. beach reading, if i did that. quick read and light while sitting in Dr & DDS offices
Not for everyone. I enjoyed it.
Read the first few chapters, was bored and started another book.
Main character was different from the norm and fairly entertaining.
Enjoyed it. Very entertaining. Descriptions good
cute easy read for mystery buffs
Didn’t even get to page 50 before deleting
I have read all 3 books, can’t wait for the next one.
I do enjoy easy reading with comedy and mystery and romance..
I could picture these great characters as if they were in my hair salon. A bunch of crazy, entertaining people. Good plot.
A really “good read”!! made me smile, great entertainment after a tough day at office … a good book to read after dinner with a cup of coffee
A wonderful cozy mystery that has lots of twist I didn’t expect!
I got bored with this book, so I didn’t finish it. It was okay, but wasn’t keeping my interest.
I like book series. I’m hoping this one delivers. This one is pretty good and I’m looking forward to reading more. The characters are believable and human, no one is too perfect.
This is a fun read.
Quite honestly I wish the book kept going and will definitely look for more by this author
Did not hold my interest at all. Sorry!
