I love this new series. I can't wait to read the second one. It was quirky, cute, and easy to read.

I was looking forward to reading a cozy with a younger sleuth and this was definitely that. The mystery was solid and the story included a romance that was a little more prominent than in most mysteries. I didn't feel any real attachment to the characters, but I'll keep reading to see where the authors go with the series. It has the potential to be really good.

Not a bad first in a series book, could be a bit heavier on the mystery part. Seems like this series focuses mainly on the cooking and food aspects instead of the murder and mystery.

This book started out sooo slow for me. In fact, I kept starting and stopping it for over a month after receiving it until I made myself keep plowing ahead and then... I started to like it. It's different than most other cozies, other mysteries. There's just so many inconsequential details discussed and thought about. Probably too much but you know, I somehow found myself liking the main character and her friends and enjoying some of the extra stuff about their lives. I am near the end and have a few guesses about the murderer but nothing definite and that's always a big plus for me. I love when an author can fool me. I'm looking forward to reading the next one in the series.
