3.5 stars

I'm really glad I have the whole series of these because book 1 ended super abruptly. Not even a cliff hanger. Just a "turn the page to the next chapter and it's the end". It was certainly a page turner (small town intrigue, murder mystery and awkward love interests) though and I'm intrigued as to what happens next. I sense though that this might be one of those "one book in four parts" rather than a series.
