Traveling to Sicily with Auntie Poldi was a DELIGHT! This is a story in a familiar genre ~ woman of a certain age solves a murder while engaging in hijinks along the way ~ set in a delicious location with a very welcome European flair. Given that Poldie is actually German, she learns about the region’s customs and quirks alongside us non-Sicilians, making this a great cultural experience for me. I believe it’s my first book that I’ve ever read set entirely in Sicily and it was just the warmth I needed during this Wisconsin winter dreariness!

This was a slower read for me, given some of the language and translation barriers, but that just let me savor the experience longer and really immerse myself in the setting. I believe this is the first in a new series and I will definitely looking for further books about Auntie Poldi ❤️
