Annu's Reviews > Murder with Peacocks

This book started out well and I was quite entertained by Meg's quirky family. It was refreshing to read a cozy mystery where the protagonist is not running away from her previous job/boyfriend, coming to a new city and falling in love with her future husband (who turns out to be the sheriff/detective), SO tired of this plot line. I loved the bit about Eric and the duck eggs, it reminded me of my little nephew and his obsession with pigeon eggs. On the other hand, the mystery was so little and just a little too much of wedding details. And this robbed me of the joy I derive from reading a cozy mystery, dropping 3 stars because of that. All those wedding details gave me such a massive headache, just wanted to drop the book and read something else. But my sweet hubby gifted me this book, so was obliged to read due to that. I wish the entire book had revolved around the father's POV.
