Helpful Score: 1

Very ambivalent about this book. It is a long, slow read and I was never invested enough to want read past bedtime. No complaints about grammar, characters are believable, the plot was a bit basic and seemed to be secondary to setting the stage for the series. The main character has inherited Hamlet along with the shop and that shows in her lack of concern for the cat roaming the shop, apartment, and outside without anyone knowing or seeming to care how that is happening. I really had some issues about how she dealt with some employee issues, that took me out of the book and made me question if I wanted to finish reading the book, but I am glad I did.

I would recommend this book to animal loving, cozy mystery readers; I just wouldn't recommend paying full price. I going to give the series another try be reading the second book, I hope I can give number 2 more stars.
