En charmante compagnie

The unique cultural backdrop adds so much charm — I wonder if the author drew from personal experience or research to bring it to life.

The lighthearted tone kept me hooked without feeling trivial, but I’m curious if others found the humor to be a genuine part of the story or more of a stylistic choice.

The emphasis on relationships and local traditions gave the mystery a cozy, inviting feel. I’d love to know if this was a conscious theme from the start or evolved during writing.
