Book Review of A Cotswold Killing (Thea Osborne, Bk 1)

Helpful Score: 1


I have recently started reading Britsh mysteries and found this book in the "cozy" mysteries. The title Cotswold caught my attention because I love the Cotswolds! I didn't like the book though. It was just a bunch of little things that bothered me that all added up and I just didn't enjoy it, though I did finish it. The main character has lost her husband in a car wreck and copes with it by sticking her finger with a needle. That's one thing I just couldn't relate to though I know people cope with death in all different ways. Also, there's a character in there that not many people like and they say that someone should have smothered him when he was born. That just didn't sit with me well at all. The author is good at describing the surroundings but the character development was just a little off for me. I still would tell people to give it a try and form their own opinion.
