I am an avid cozy mystery reader and have enjoyed this series since book one, but I get so tired of the heroine's being stupid or turning into Jessica Fletcher and now Avery has really crossed those lines. I will say, at least the Derek (and therefore the author) have acknowledged it in their relationship but can we find new ways for them to solve the mystery besides putting themselves into dangerous situations--that as the reader--that are so obvious (e.g. visiting a suspect to give them information, following people in cars, etc.).
I thought the murder itself was interesting but I get distracted by the stupid stuff the amateur sleuths do that it takes away from the really good plot.
