This book had so much potential. I'm a huge fan of cozy mysteries (especially ones with ghosts!) but this one missed the mark for me.

One of my biggest complaints is that Cordelia and Ruby are the most stereotypical caricatures of GenX vs GenZ. It's almost like the author did a quick Internet search on the lingo or vibes of each age and threw them all into her two main characters. (ie. GenZ can't read cursive so how in the world could a GenX ghost communicate with her??? *eye roll*) It almost felt like they had no personality of their own besides their generations.

The miscommunication trope also got old very fast for me. I understand that death does make for complications when trying to solve a murder with someone but, sheesh.

It wasn't a bad read, just didn't itch the cozy mystery scratch for me.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for providing me with an e-ARC of this book.
