ARC Review: Honey Drop Dead

 I received an ARC of this book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. This did not affect my opinion of the book or my review itself. 


Honey Drop Dead by Laura Childs 

Theodosia, who owns and runs a tea shop, is hosting a Honey Bee Tea for a local gallery owner. But the tea is quickly ruined by someone dressed up as a beekeeper spraying toxic smoke and shooting a local politician. The gallery owner, immediately losing business, begs Theodosia to discover who the murderer is. Along with her tea shop assistants Drayton and Holly, Theodosia sets out to find the murderer before the murderer finds her.

I always love this series, and this was no exception. Theodosia is a strong female protagonist who doesn’t let herself be scared off or give up. The supporting characters are all very unique, and it’s always fun to see the reoccurring characters from previous stories. The bit of romance with Theodosia and her very understanding police officer boyfriend is sweet.

The mystery in this one is a good one, with a lot of red herrings and a hard solution to guess. The ending is quite dramatic as well, though a little abrupt. I would recommend this book.
