I'm going against the grain here but I didn't find the (neurodiverse?) main character sweet and endearing; I found her distractingly annoying and in need of some proper therapy. It was also pretty dark in places, rather than 'a cosy mystery' (how I hate that phrase), which made the ridiculously happy ending, while not unexpected, rather tacked on. There were surprising layers, but the 'naive narrator' trope was a bit too heavy handed.
