Mayhem on the Marzipan Express

 


**1/2
PG
Would Not Recommend

I don't know if I was just in a bad mood or what but I did not love this book :(
I wanted to like it...crime on an old fashioned train in the Scottish Highlands?  Yes please!
However, multiple times while reading I thought about not finishing because it was so sickeningly sweet.  The only thing that kept me going was the mystery.  I WAS able to call the murderer which is always a triumph :) but seriously, the dialogue was way too much and, frankly, unbelievable at times.
I don't remember feeling this way about the first in the series so it surprised me that I had such strong feelings about this one.
I would have a hard time recommending this book.
