Murder, She Wrote: A Vote for Murder

This is probably one my most favorite books so far out of the Murder, She Wrote series. Jessica finds herself in Washington D.C. to support a friend and her literacy drive. Her friend also has a a husband in the senate. There is of course a lot of cheating, bribery, and murder in this book that just makes me so happy. That sounds horrible but I love it in books.

I was not able to figure out the whodunit until the very end which is exciting for me since I read so many cozies and mysteries. This was a great one to pick up on audio!

Another good episode in the Murder, She Wrote series. I enjoyed the political background to the storyline. The "love triangle" trope was a slight disappointment because it made it so Jessica didn't have a real partner-in-crime while she solved the mystery. I think George Sutherland could have been used better in the plot. However, I still really enjoyed the story, and I love this series.

If you liked the show, you're almost certain to like the book. I leave that to you, of course.

I liked the book because it followed some of the basic tenets of the show. Yes, there was a murder, but there wasn't any gore. Yes, Jessica was in danger a couple of times, but nothing terrifying. Yes, it has a happy ending, but no, I didn't figure out exactly what was going on until that crucial moment when she was laying out the facts.

All in all, a nice way to spend an afternoon. I look forward to reading more of this series.
