I need something light after Tess.
As previously mentioned, some aspects irritate me, but overall I enjoy the Domestic Diva series. The characters are fun - endearing in their own way. The mysteries are good. In this one, Sophie is simultaneously running a design exhibition and trying to figure out just what happened in her deceased neighbor's house. And what was the point of the odd party and strange bequests?
I'm listening to the 3rd installment in this series, and while I enjoy it, Krista Davis has a tendency to include REALLY frustrating conversations based on misunderstandings. Those kinds of exchanges get me fired up - as is the intention I assume - but I don't like it. It adds an unnecessary stressful element to her books.
