A Spoonful of Murder by J.M. Hall
mysterious
slow-paced
3.5
A spoonful of murder is a murder mystery where a group of elderly women were investigating into the mysterious death of their friend, Topsy Joy.
It took a while for the story to pick up the pace, I almost DNFed (Did Not Finish) the book like alot of reviews also said. Ultimately I'm happy I finished it, but would probably not read any other book by this author.
I liked how the book focused on how vulnerable the elderly are when it comes to scams and fraud, it's a topic not explored in fiction.
The narrator really bought the story to life.
