2024 book 132

 Juneau Black's Shady Hollow

I bought this ages ago just because the cover is so cute, and I’m finally getting around to reading it due to rebound Covid. :( Anyway, this has a great concept: it’s set in a town of anthropomorphic animals, and the main character is star reporter Vera Vixen, a fox (her best friend is a raven named Lenore who owns the local bookstore). Things kick off with the murder of the local grumpy toad. I did enjoy the characters and world here a lot, but the mystery wasn’t very interesting. I might check out this series again next time I want something chill, though. B/B+.
