Momma Says: 5 stars⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Talk about keeping a reader on her toes! Tell Her, the 3rd Lacey James mystery, has more twists than you can shake a stick at. Lacey and Eli are on the hunt for a killer, and every possibility seems to uncover another possibility. There is a lot going on in this one, some good and some bad, which is typical of small-town life - kind of a it's boring and ho-hum until it's not type of thing, then everything happens at once. We also see another development or two with Lacey's home life, and to be honest, I'm still not sure how I feel about it all. I'm torn between sad, mad, and surprised, but the ups and downs feel real and relatable. I'll be interested to see where things go for Lacey, and everything I've come to expect from Chris Patchell tells me things will work out as they should. It may not be the way I imagine, but it'll feel right when it happens. I've become thoroughly invested in Lacey and the other characters of Sweet Home, so I'm glad to hear that there is another book coming. I, for one, am not ready to say goodbye to this series.
