Anyone who knows me at all, knows I really don't enjoy LDS fiction. Knowing this, a friend told me this book was cute and I should give it a chance. So I did. But... Too many things had to be explained in detail before the characters got them and I felt there was too much doctrine mentioned that really had no relevance to the story. There were also many loose ends to the mystery that were never explained. If someone is looking for an LDS book that throws in a lot of doctrine and is clean, then this is the book for you. I did enjoy the part where the main character was rude to her nosy visiting teacher though. This was one of the worst mysteries I've read in a long time. First of all, why was the detective telling Erin all the details of the case? He would not be able to share stuff like that without getting in trouble. And it was really weird that they fell in love when he showed no personality throughout the entire novel until the very end. Also, it drove me nuts how the author kept throwing in random hymns that were stuck in Erin's head. Most of them were hymns that nobody even knows and why did she add that to the book? It was an unnecessary addition to the novel.
A cute murder mystery/love story. Not the greatest writing, but engaging, and kept my interest.

I think because I have the audio CD, it'll take me a while to get around to finishing this one.

A mystery with a touch of humor. I didn't figure out who dunnit until almost the end.
