TW/CW: Violence, murder, mild sexuality RATING: 3.5/5 REVIEW: I received a free copy of this book from Netgalley and am voluntarily leaving an honest review. Death Among the Diamonds is the story of a disastrous weekend at a country estate in the 1920’s. It follows Cressida Fawcett, a young, independently wealthy woman with an eye for fashion and design as she helps to solve a theft and two murders. I had mixed feelings about this book. I enjoyed the mystery and didn’t have it figured out until the end. The setting was interesting and fun, and the writing was good, and engaging. Honestly, my biggest problem with the book was Cressida herself. She was just so…snobbish and careless? I get that she’s supposed to be rich and carefree, but there are at least two places in the book where she (or her dog) cause serious damage to other people’s property and she just kind of laughs it off. I know that’s a tiny thing, but it really annoyed me and took away some of my enjoyment of the book. That aside, this is not a bad book and I did enjoy reading it, for the most part. I think other people who enjoy cosy mysteries – especially historically based ones – would enjoy this book. 1920s, pug, verbal-humor, situational-humor, friendship, family-dynamics, family, wealthy, England, country-house, theft, murder-investigation, murder, new-series**** This lovely bit of fluff is exactly what I needed after reading a couple of nonfiction WW2 pieces! Very entertaining and lighthearted mystery of first the theft, then a murder. The publisher's blurb is pretty good, so no need to recap. Nice start to a new series! I requested and received an e-book copy from Bookouture via NetGalley. Thank you! sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
