MagretFume's Reviews > Lenny Marks Gets Away with Murder

Do not judge this book by it's cover!
The marketing of this book is so misleading, I almost passed on it. I don't know why it's presented as a 'cosy mystery', but it's definitely not. 

To me this book is more in the vein of 'Eleanor Oliphant is completely fine' than anything else. 
The main character, a socially awkward woman, slowly comes to terms with her traumatic past and take action to open up to others. 

This story got a lot of heart and humour, and I really found myself rooting for Lenny. It's well constructed and kept me interested until the end. 
I liked the narrator for the audiobook version, who helped a lot to give a light-hearted tone to the story even when difficult subjects were discussed. 

If you like that kind of personal journey, give this book a chance.
