Nosy Neighbors by Freya Sampson is a bit of a cozy pseudo-mystery with some depth. A diverse group of tenants in an old English historical housing complex learn that they are being evicted and they must figure out where they are going to go. One of the tenants wants to try to protest the eviction and protect the historic house, but is unable to get the group to move past their petty grievances and work together. When the tenant is found almost dead after he starts his protest, the older woman who lives across from his flat tries to figure out which tenant did it.
This was an enjoyable, easy read that centers on character interaction, backstory, and development and ends with a nice, tidy wrap-up. Pick this up if you want a pick-me-up story.
