Esta resenha foi escrita no âmbito dos Primeiros Resenhistas do LibraryThing.DNF. I pride myself for finishing a book I start no matter how bad it is.
This was pretty bad. Every other word, or it seemed like it, was a yiddish word that had to be explained. It broke up the flow of the story and I just couldn't get into it. Meh.

Rose and Ida live in a Jewish residence for the elderly who no longer choose to care for private residences and are still the same snoopy ladies they were forty years ago. This is the third time that they have gotten involved in a murder investigation and by now the local police detective agrees to their credibility. The victim is the home's manager and while they dislike him, they minimally agree to help investigate on his behalf. Great fun and lots of humor. All of the characters are well drawn and relatable, and the sleuthing is well done and has enough twists and red herrings to keep things going.
There are a lot of words used that I've heard all my life but never seen in print, so I'd really appreciate having this fun book in audio.
I requested and received a free e-book copy from The Wild Rose Press via NetGalley. Thank you!… (mais)

Originally published in 2014, this gentle cozy mystery is great fun (especially for those of us who have worked in senior residence facilities). All of the characters are well drawn and relatable, and the sleuthing is well done and has enough twists and red herrings to keep things going.
