A Christmas Candy Killing

Finally, a cozy mystery that I enjoyed! I loved the set of characters, but my only drawback was that there were a lot of them, and sometimes I got them mixed up. Loved the small time vibes and the fun candy/bookstore with “poison” chocolates as a concept. While some of the dialogue was unnatural (what tends to make me put down cozies) it wasn't unbearable. I think this is a promising series, and while I won't rush for the next one, I probably would continue! The characters would be much easier to keep track of in future books, I assume.
