Forbidden Fruit
Forbidden Fruit: A Corinna Chapman Mystery | Kerry Greenwood
4 posts | 9 read | 3 to read
Corinna Chapman, owner of the bakery Earthly delights, detests Christmas. The shoppers are frantic and the heat oppressive in Melbourne, Australia, where Christmas is summer festival. Corinna loathes the festival and the heat. She is a perfect size 20 with a genius for baking bread. And muffins. And while dreaming of air conditioned comfort she finds herself dealing with a rose-addicted donkey named Serena, a maniacal mother with staring eyes, a distracted assistant seeking for the definitive glace cherry recipe, her friend the fearless witch Meroe and the luscious Daniel with whom she would like to spend a lot more time. But Daniel is on the track of two runaways, Brigid and Manny. This Romeo and Juliet romance is not as straightforward as it seems and the pair will go a long way to avoid being found. With the help of a troupe of free-spirited freegans, three very clever internet hackers and a bunch of singing vegans, Corinna and Daniel go head-to-head with a sinister religious cult on a mission and a band of Romanies out for revenge in a wild and wonderful chase against the (biological) clock.

I love the Corinna Chapman series because imo, it epitomizes the definition of a #cozymystery — It‘s laid-back (rarely has to do with murder mysteries so doesn‘t stretch believability), and feels like slipping into a cozy nest with a cup of tea. Corinna and her little makeshift family that make up her apartment building, Insula, make me smile and wish I had friends like that. The descriptions of delicious food make my mouth water. 🤤 5⭐️

It‘s December in Melbourne, and while Corinna Chapman hates all things Christmas, she is looking forward to some much-needed time off. But first, there‘s a little matter of a missing pregnant girl to find, and a rose-loving donkey to contend with. I wasn‘t keen on the 3rd book on the series, but this one is back on form.

A wonderfully gruesome cover for a brilliant book (needed a break after heavy non-fiction). I adore Kerry Greenwood, so much so that I left my beloved books in storage when we moved OS (“for 2yrs” 4yrs ago) because China was on an anti-foreign Fiction kick but I missed them all so much, I‘ve been rebuying them on the cheap (hence the LP edition). They‘re worth it. This is non-Christmas Christmas writing at its best. Highly, highly recommended!

Cinfhen Hey, just thinking about you! Hope all is well... 6y

I‘m basking in CLEAN AIR AND WATER AND BLUE SKIES!! Omg, it‘s heaven! 😊😊❤️❤️😊😊 6y
