Cream Puff Murder
Cream Puff Murder | Joanne Fluke
14 posts | 26 read | 10 to read
Bakery owner Hannah Swensen has a dress to fit into and a date with her sister, Andrea, at Lake Eden's new health club, Heavenly Bodies. Dragging herself out of bed on a frigid Minnesota morning for exercise, of all things, is bad enough. Discovering the body of man-eating bombshell Ronni Ward floating in the gym's jacuzzi? Okay, that's worse. Nor does it help that there's a plate of The Cookie Jar's very own cream puffs garnishing the murder scene. Trying to narrow the list of Ronni's enemies down to fewer than half the town's female population, Hannah has her plate full. Trouble is, when it comes to cookies--and to murder--there's always room for one more. . . "Foodie fans will eat up Fluke's cozy. . . A fluffy mix of sweets and suspense." --Publishers Weekly "Entertaining and sprinkled with tempting recipes. It's a sweet treat of a novel." --The Star Tribune (Minneapolis, MN) "A tasty treat." --Kirkus Reviews

Mehso-so

I was in the hospital for about two weeks without my phone, but I did have books, so I‘m going to put out my reviews over the next few days spaced out a bit, every few hours. Gastroparesis is a bitch, man. That said: I though Cream Puff Murder was a fairly nice cozy, but the recipes were atrocious and the ending came out of left field. There is no world in which this character is a professional baker.

IamIamIam Oh no!!! Hope you're on the mend now!!! 🤗🤗🤗 4y
Molly_the_mezzo @IamIamIam I‘m feeling much better, thank you. It‘s chronic so it doesn‘t really go away, but I‘m not in immediate danger anymore 4y
Jas16 Glad that you are doing better 4y

In 2 weeks, Hannah has to be able to fit in the custom Regency gown ordered for her mother‘s book launch party. The situation will require a strict diet and - horrors! - going to fitness classes at Heavenly Bodies, a new gym. Hannah must investigate when she finds a body in the jacuzzi, and 4 of the detectives are off the case due to “personal involvement” with the victim. Including Mike and Bill!

(Another one that is ok, not one of my favorites)

I spent the first 35 mins of #24in48 almost finishing this one. Only 40 more pages but I can‘t keep my eyes open anymore.

QueenJen I've read 2 in this series. I also like the hallmark murders and mysteries series based off of these books.😉☕📚 5y

I have never read a book that included recipes! I can‘t wait to try some of them!

SW-T @Kwrightson1986 You might also like Diane Mott Davidson, Tamar Myers, or A.L. Herbert. They all do cozy style mysteries with recipes. Welcome to Litsy! 😊 5y
readinginthedark Cozy Mysteries are so fun! It's funny to me that the "guilt-free" parfait is just Jello and soda...I think I'd feel a lot less guilty about a more traditional parfait of yogurt and fruit...? 5y
