It's hard not to enjoy Charlaine Harris' writing. It's light, fluffy, and simple enough to read quickly for something lighthearted. For a book about gruesome murders, that's what this book was - lighthearted and funny at times. It wasn't amazing, but it also wasn't awful. It was a fun read and a solid three but I don't think I'll be reading any more of the series.

My comments on the mental illness aspect of the book are in the spoiler.
