Review: Murder on Cape Cod

Murder on Cape Cod by Maddie Day
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I won a paper copy of this book through a Goodreads Giveaway; however, due to COVID-19 restrictions, we were given the option of an e-book copy until the publisher is able to send out the paper copies. I am reviewing an e-book copy of this book.

Sometimes, I just need a book that does not require brain cells or critical thinking to process. Especially after reading a couple in a row that were rather heavy ready. With that being said, I was really looking forward to this book. On the one hand, that's what I loved about this book. On the other hand, it is also the reason I did not like the book as much as I wanted to.

Even with "stay-at-home" orders in place, I have not done a lot of reading (sadly, for reasons unknown). I was really looking forward to having a break and reading a pager turner, but one that I did not have to sit and think about for an hour to get it.

I do not know if it is because I have been distracted during COVID, but this book was somewhat putdownable and not the page turner I was looking for. I would still read the second book just to see if it picks up now that the character introductions (and some development) have happened.

There are a couple recipes at the end. They sound great and I am interested in trying them!
