Well, I finally read a cozy mystery by Maddie Day (it's been on my list for a while). "Murder on Cape Cod" is the first of the "Cozy Capers" mystery series. In a cozy mystery (if you're not familiar), you find out the murder or the worst possible thing that will happen in the book right away, and then the rest of the book unravels the mystery. 

In "Murder on Cape Cod," we find out that Westham local, Jake, has been found murdered on the bike path, right behind Mackenzie (Mac)'s home. Mac owns the local bike shop and is part of a book club in town. It's prime tourist season, so Mac and her book club friends decide to pull out all the stops in trying to figure out who killed Jake, despite the police saying "We've got this." 

This book takes place in a fictional town, Westham, on Cape Cod, but I was picturing Falmouth the entire time. Falmouth is mentioned in the book, but I still couldn't shake that Westham is actually Falmouth, haha. 

Overall, this was a fun read. I liked the aspect of the book club members trying to solve a crime - I wouldn't put that past my book club ladies either (we all want a safe community, am I right?!). And this was a nice break from some of the other intense mystery/thrillers that I read.
