The wedding trope in cozy mysteries is not my favorite thing, but this is done really well. It isn't a simple bridezilla with a jerk for a groom. There is more to all the characters than just that. As Carly is Investigating, she is being nosy and compassionate at the same time. That is a fine line that Carly is better at than most other people. The addition of Valerie with several cozy tropes was very clever and fun for a long time cozy reader.
As to the mystery, the clues were there and I completely missed them. So I was totally surprised by the revelation of the murderer. The way that Carly gets saved helped to develop the characters. And I appreciated the wrap up chapter as well. After getting to know these characters and beginning to care about them, I appreciated seeing what was going to happen to them next.
Carly was not in her restaurant as much as I would have liked, but that is bound to happen in some books in the series.
2.5 stars I don't remember the first two books having such cringey dialogues :/
