Coffee We Spill is the third mini mystery in Chelsea Michelle's Watson Twins series. There are now three mini mysteries, plus one full length mystery which takes place between Chaos We Unravel and Coffee We Spill. I've enjoyed all the books so far, but the full length novel is my favorite, with this new story coming in close behind.
I loved the mystery in this one and how we didn't know if Zach, the owner of a coffee truck who was in competition with Michelle and her coffee shop, was just missing or if he had met a worse fate. The blood found at the back of Michelle's coffee shop sure did make me wonder. It was clear some one was trying to set Michelle up for the fall, but the identity of the culprit was kept a mystery until quite near the end of the story.
There was a bit of suspense and danger in the story, but nothing too over the top. I mean, this is just a cozy mystery. Personally, I am a fan of suspense, so I enjoyed the level of suspense in this book.
I love how all of Michelle's friends and family gather around her to support her. I loved getting to see more of Michelle's relationship with her new boyfriend Jeremy, but I really want to find out what is up with him, and whether Chelsea is right in not trusting him. I hope we get to find out more in the next book. Of course, part of me really wishes she'd get back together with Kyle. Though we never really saw them as a couple because they broke up at the beginning of the first book. But they obviously care a lot about each other.
I'm also hoping the next book brings Chelsea a better relationship. Even though her boyfriend is a Christian, I'm not a huge fan of him, especially because of certain reactions he had in this book. And we really didn't get to see much of him anyway. As there was a lot of Michelle with Jeremy time in this book, I really hope Chelsea gets the chance for a relationship.
As you may be able to tell, I'm really invested in these characters now. I'm loving the mysteries they have been involved with solving, even though I'm still not a huge fan of the rule breaking that is going on while they are trying to solve them. Poor Chelsea trying to keep Michelle safe from herself, but also going against what she feels is right, just to protect her.
And I love that faith is important to the characters, and we see them in prayer and in church, and they learn to lean on Jesus and trust Him.
Definitely another great addition to this series.
I received an e-copy of this book as a member of the launch team and was not required to write a favorable review. These are my own honest thoughts.
