All That Glitters Isn't Old - Whit and Whiskers Mystery #3


All That Glitters Isn't Old is the 3rd Whit and Whiskers cozy mystery by Gabby Allan. Released 25th July 2023 by Kensington Books, it's 256 pages and is available in paerback and ebook formats. It's worth noting that the ebook format has a handy interactive table of contents as well as interactive links and references throughout. 

This is a fun light series which combines rom-com and cozy mystery. It's not -overly- heavy on the former, and readers who usually avoid romance altogether in their cozy reads won't be overwhelmed here, but there is significant rom-com content (fun and lighthearted). The mystery is well constructed and the dialogue is solid. 

It's got an island paradise setting, with summer vibes and nice mystery; a perfect escapist read for a cold dark winter afternoon. It would make a good selection for public library acquisition, or for fans of island rom-com mysteries. With three books in the ongoing series, it would also be a good choice for a weekend binge/buddy read. 

Four stars. 

Disclosure: I received an ARC at no cost from the author/publisher for review purposes.
