“ I would rent a houseboat & head to Houseboat Row tomorrow! ” @dupuisshowreads
Another great read to end your summer with – plus, don’t you just love adding books to your summer TBR already?! The characters make this book a fun read and the story itself is a great mystery. I laughed-out-loud for real, not just in my head.
Plot Summary
Violet and Bettina Booth are a duo of older Scottish ladies, known as The Scone Sisters, who are venturing from across-the-pond to Key West to promote their baking show. The reader is taken on an adventure as soon as the plane touches down!
As soon as the ladies arrive, they find out their B&B is closed and being high season, there are not many options available for housing, so they are hosted on a house boat. When someone ends-up murdered, the characters are ready and willing to lend another set of eyes to the investigation, even if their help is not wanted.
What I Liked
The setting brings the story to life and makes it relatable on many levels, making it easy to envision as you read. The characters are loveable and I was unable to stop reading. I did not know this book is the thirteenth instalment in the Key West Food Critic series. I found the book to work as a standalone and still really enjoyed the story.
Thank you to NetGalley and Crooked Lane Books for the eARC!
