I have read 2 of J.M.'s books prior to reading this one. I really like her writing style. Like her prior books, Tangled to Death is short and sweet, less then 200 pages. So yes at times, things hurry along, maybe even faster than you'd like them too.I think it is the fast paced nature of the story that works for me.Of the three books by JM that I've read, this is definitely the best of the bunch. The plot is tight and the characters are really engaging, though Katie's tough girl attitude at times is a bit unnerving. I found myself really becoming intrigued by the Zentangle Art form. If I  had any gripe about the story, it would be that "tangling" wasn't explained well enough.I also loved the budding relationship between Jonah and Katie. The sparks were flying quite a bit, but I was also glad that Jonah didn't act on them, as Katie was a suspect throughout the novel.I also like how her past was tied into this story and how things were resolved for her. The ending was definitely unexpected!I love cozies and I love the little bit of romance that goes on here as well as the mystery.Definitely a book worth checking out if you like cozies. I hope we get another mystery with Katie and Jonah.~ review copy provided by the author in exchange for an honest review
