Dumpster Dying (A Hazardous Hoarding Mystery Book 1) by Michelle Bennington – Review by Moriah Venable

Dumpster Dying by Michelle Bennington
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

With a title like this, how can I not want to read it?

After reading Prisoner of Night by J. R. Ward, I was in the mood for a different genre.

Birdie Harper has a problem. She likes to collect things. And she prefers to go dumpster diving to see what she can find. One may refer to her as a hoarder.

The way Birdie thinks of herself is a lot different from what others would call her and she is just fine with that.

One day while dumpster diving in the dumpster of her favorite hobby story, she uncovers a dead body! Unfortunately, she finds the body of a young woman that she knows.

Birdie resolves to catch the murderer of her friend and drags her sister and recently deceased husband Walter, to assist her.

The title and cover caught my attention. I just had to read it. The overall world and characters are refreshing to me.

Reading this just made me think of watching an episode of Hoarders mixed in with a murder mystery.

I don’t know if the author has any plans to make more in this series, but if they do, I am looking forward to reading them.
