A Little Yuletide Murder

A nice in-betweener book if you want to relax a bit. Typical Murder, She Wrote book with a bit of action but not too much. Jessica did not need to investigate a lot this time, but still solved everything. The back and forth with Jake was a bit weird, but reminded me of the TV show were similar things happened. What feels a bit forced is that certain people seem to appear in every single book for no good reason whatsoever—the Buckleys or mentioning George in passing for example.

This book...it is not festive.

I was hoping to be brought into a Christmas-sy Cabot Cove but there isn't really any mention of Christmas, it is actually set a little before. Which in fact is in line with my reading, since I picked this up in February.
It was very cosy, but a bit...meh. Still a three star book but it lacked something. Maybe I am not a fan of Jessica's novels set in Cabot Cove, or maybe I didn't really like the families' troubles and members, but this one just wasn't one of my favourites.
