This book has received lots of publicity and some excellent reviews. I would give it three stars. The story is clever and I especially loved how the novel within the novel was so authentic, with advanced praise and comments about being made into a television series. I did not find the story as engaging as I had hoped that I would, nor did I find the characters to be especially likeable. Give this a try though because I think I am in the minority in not rating MPM more highly.
Update:
I have gone on to enjoy the second in the series and am currently reading The Marble Hall Murders and enjoying it.
I am glad this series is winning you over, Joyce. Happy reading!💖📚
