3/5

Short review:
Some parts work for me with the charm of cozy mystery. Some, however, just 'meh'. It picked up the suspense towards the end, but the revelation was just. too. damn. slow.

Lacy, a 40-something divorcee, took up running as a hoby and soon got tangled in a murder mystery. Accompanied by Stax, her old friend, and Ruby, her new friend (who also a writer), she tried to solve the mystery and maybe not getting killed while solving it.

Running From Scissor has a clever title, clever women (huzza for the Lacy-Stax-Ruby trio), and a cozy vibe. I dislike how Ruby dragged her explanations of whodunit. It was like watching a screenplay of 1985 Clue, but in a bad way.
