Murder In The Piazza by Jen Collins Moore Book Review
Murder In The Piazza by Jen Collins Moore was a fun adventure, with a little murder thrown in, that kept me guessing. If you enjoy art and travel, with a bit of history thrown in, and are looking for an easy read, set in wonderful Rome, with a colorful cast of characters--both victims and perpetrators--look no further.
Maggie is a pretty likeable main character. The way the author writes, you pretty much are seeing the story unfold through her. There were times she was wrong. There were times she was right. I found her annoying at times and wished she would just get on with things and at other times, I just wanted to give her a hug and tell her "great job!". Once or twice I felt Maggie's thoughts weren't anywhere in the vicinity of the story, making me wonder if the editor had an off day, but those were brief and actually made you think.
I loved how each chapter started with quotes from out of the fictional tour guide about Rome and various aspects of living and visiting there and they tied in with the happenings in the chapter.
Overall I feel the book was well thought out, with lots of twists and turns and it was a very enjoyable read.
I received an eARC from Independent Book Publishers Association through NetGalley. All opinions are 100% my own.
