Bea's had it with bickering teammates, so she decides to go home for Christmas.

What I enjoyed:
* Bea's family and friends. Her granny and April are awesome!
* Bea when she was taking charge
* Oliver when he wasn't sniping at Will

What could have been better:
* She's now got another suitor - please explain why everyone falls for her? It is just so unrealistic.
* I hate love triangles and them always sniping at each other was annoying
* I got tired of Bea feeling sorry for herself (view spoiler)

Death Takes a Holiday opens up with a lot of tension in the group as a result of events from book 2. It sucks that certain members hold Bea accountable for the actions of others. I thought Bea did a good job standing up for herself. I enjoyed reading about Bea's interaction with her family- Nana and April. Good twist with a betrayal by a certain someone.

Yep. Nana keeps her husband's and both daughter's urns above the fireplace. Triple yep.
