Dim Sum of All Fears | Vivien Chien
Welcome back to Ho-Lee Noodle House, where you can get fantastic take-out. . .unless you get taken out first. Vivien Chien serves up a delicious mystery with a side order of soy sauce and sass. A tasty start to a new mystery series! Bestselling author Kylie Logan on Death by Dumpling Lana Lee is a dutiful daughter, waiting tables at her familys Chinese restaurant even though shed rather be doing just about anything else. Then, just when she has a chance for a real job, her parents take off to Taiwan, leaving Lana in charge. Surprising everyoneincluding herselfshe turns out to be quite capable of running the place. Unfortunately, the newlyweds who just opened the souvenir store next door to Ho-Lee have turned up dead. . .and soon Lana finds herself in the midst of an Asia Village mystery. Between running the Ho-Lee and trying to figure out whether the rock-solid Detective Adam Trudeau is actually her boyfriend, Lana knows she shouldnt pry into the case. But the more she learns about the dead husband, his ex-wives, and all the murky details of the couples past, the more Lana thinks that this so-called murder/suicide is a straight-up order of murder. . .

#BookReport #WeeklyForecast. Loved the first 4 books. Dim Sum was for #SeriesLove23 and the cliched villains were a turn off. I won‘t continue with the series but started a new one with the Bright. 🤞🏼 it‘s better. Concentrating on Visiting for #LMPBC and liking Home Fire so far.

This is the cozy murder mystery that I‘ve been wanting to read… it hit the spot! I‘ve no idea how it ended up on my kindle or why I bought book 2 and not book 1 - but I‘m glad! Will continue on to see what‘s next for Lana Lee

Ok - so not only did I miss that this is book 2 (which isn‘t a huge deal - but events from book 1 do keep coming up) but the friend she just went to a bookshop with and bought a huge amount of books with has been murdered.

Don‘t kill off the friend that you socialise with by buying books together. What is this? Hopefully justice will be swift!

Unrelated but this is my little sisters new puppy, Hugo, having his first bath…

I haven‘t read the first book in the series (this one was on sale cheap so I bought it to try it out). It was a fun cozy mystery, I‘ll probably read more of them. I can‘t think of anything particularly riveting about the story, but sometimes you just need a fun, simple book at the end of the night (at least I do after reading academic books/articles). #bookspin

A fun and fairly quick read. This cozy mystery is the second in the series and it‘s not a huge head scratcher but it‘s just what I needed to keep my attention and cure my mystery hankering.

A really enjoyable cosy murder mystery. I enjoyed the characters and the family dynamic of the main character. The romance is a bit meh but it doesn't take up too much of the book.

A solid cozy. The mystery was fun, and the characters are entertaining, but I think I‘ll be finishing this series in print, as I really disliked the audiobook narrator.

I liked the second entry in this cozy mystery series. The MC is working in her family‘s restaurant and in this one she is put in charge while her parents are out of the country. There book does have one of my pet peeves for cozies, which is the MC keeping something potentially dangerous to herself, but that is pretty common in these books. I enjoyed the story and was surprised by the solution, which is all I need in a cozy.

Reading a book in my backyard while eating a caprese salad with tomatoes and basil from my garden bed makes for a perfect day off.

My boss told me not to work today, so I was happy to have this cozy mystery queued up on my Kindle! I knew I could knock it out in a day and since it‘s the second in a series, I knew I would enjoy it — and I both finished it AND enjoyed it! 🎆

🥟🥟🥟🥟 These cozy mysteries are cute. This is the second in the series and I enjoyed it more than the first. My only complaint is the chemistry between two of the characters isn‘t really there. I‘m not feeling them much.

This is the second in a really fun #cozy series that takes place in/around a noodle shop! I really enjoyed this, even more than the first, though it always makes me hungry for some noodles 😂. A quick read that had me not sure who committed the murder until the last fourth of the book.

Another great #bookhaul from the #librarybooksale.
Amazingly, I only bought one duplicate. In additional to some new to me books there are two chunksters, a few #cozies, and the new Kay Hooper I've been wanting.
Plus, I picked up a few good ones for gifts.

I‘m really enjoying this series and can‘t wait for the next installment. I‘m really interested to see what Lana decides to do with her career. And, what detective Adam‘s background is. Such an appealing series where I can relate to much of the family and friend dynamics.
