Halloweentown meets Nancy Drew in this cozy who dunnit mystery. This was perfect for the season and super fast paced. The dialogue wasn’t the best but for a quick and easy Halloween mystery it was good. This book was corny at times but going into a cozy mystery open minded knowing what it is and accepting that it is supposed to be a light read will help you along. I will be checking out the rest of the series when I need an easier read and or palette cleanser.
