Death Bee Comes Her

This was more of a 3.5 for me if I'm honest. I loved the setting and the cats! And I liked the characters, aside from their sleuthing. My problem was they made a lot of decisions that were super audacious or risky, and the main character in particular frequently made the same mistakes (going off on her own when she's repeatedly been set up, etc). I just found her behavior baffling at times, enough to throw me out of the narrative. And the conclusion felt a bit abrupt.

All in all, I did enjoy the story, but it didn't quite live up to my hopes. I'd recommend this to folks who love bees, cats, or the Pacific Northwest because it still has a lot of great cozy feel, but you have to be forgiving with the heroine. :)
