Melanie Cooper and Angie DeLaura are finally living out their dream as the proud owners of the Fairy Tale Cupcakes bakery. But their first big client is a nightmare. She's a bridezilla who wants 500 custom cupcakes for her wedding. When Mel stumbles upon the bride-to-be dead-by-cupcake, she becomes the prime suspect. To save themselves and their business, the ladies need to find the real murderer, before the cupcake killer ices someone else.

This is my third time reading this first in the series, the second time on audio, and every time I read this, I find more things that bother me. I cannot stand Mel‘s mother. She‘s a horror - thank goodness my mother does not come to my house to make sure I‘m awake!

I do plan to continue to listen to the series - cupcakes for the win! - but I‘ll be interested to see how the characters develop.

kwmg40 I'm not familiar with this series, but that's such a fun cover image. 8mo
Librarybelle @kwmg40 Yes! The covers are so much fun! 8mo

I started this today because it was a bonus borrow on Hoopla last month. I tried another cozy a few months ago for similar reasons and enjoyed it. I bailed on this one after only 12 minutes because the explanations of everything from character descriptions to character relationships are just a bit too writer-y. There‘s also an emphasis on defining the characters by their high school identities as if it was the defining time of their lives somehow.

Just engaged in some impulse retail therapy because I got the call that they‘re not letting my husband come to the first baby appointment this week :(

Hestapleton Ugh. That has to be such a disappointment. I‘m so sorry. 5y
BethM @Hestapleton thanks it really is. I get it, I guess, but if we can pass the screening why not? It‘s our first kid and how many dads are actually coming? 5y
Hestapleton @BethM that sounds so frustrating. Maybe you can record the appointment on your phone and you two can watch it after? Take time to grieve this loss. It‘s frustrating and disappointing and you have every right to be sad. 5y

Hooked_on_books My cousin‘s wife is pregnant and undergoing chemo for breast cancer. They won‘t let her husband come to her chemo appointments. It‘s a matter of protecting her and all the other patients, frankly, so I get it. I think the recording is a good idea, but if you do that, be sure you ask first if it‘s ok and explain why. I don‘t think they‘ll have an issue with it, but medical folks don‘t like being recorded if they don‘t know about it. 5y
BethM @Hestapleton thanks for understanding 😘 @Hooked_on_books how scary! And yes, working in law enforcement I‘m very sensitive to recording things. 5y

Got a little library #bookhaul today - hoping one of these keeps my interest. I keep starting books and bailing halfway through even though I‘m enjoying them. Bonus #catsoflitsy Edie and Chloe in the background washing up after and finishing up dinner, respectively.

Owlizabeth I keep almost checking out The Plus One at the library - interested to hear your thoughts. (edited) 5y
Crazeedi That happens to me in cycles for some reason. 5y
mcipher @Crazeedi it‘s so annoying when you actually enjoy the book and it happens! 5y
mcipher @Owlizabeth I started it but put it aside for a cozy mystery. I needed super fluffy fluff today 5y

This is a reread for me although this time around I listened to it on audiobook. This series is definitely comfort reading for me which is what I need right now. I forgot to set a timer to keep track of my #25inFive readathon total hours.

1. As a lover of the cozy mystery genre I have to pick Jenn McKinlay's Cupcake Bakery series. I make sure I have cake around whenever I read that series!
2. Potatoes.
3. I don't like any seafood.
4. Thanksgiving. Potatoes, stuffing, and green bean casserole.
5. I don't have a favorite restaurant.

A fun cozy mystery that was the perfect accompaniment to two days of cookie baking. I started book 2 while baking today and will finish it and start book 3 when I decorate the cookies on Sunday.

Such a cute cozy about a cupcake bakery. I really liked the fact that I didn't figure out who the killer was early on. This book kept me guessing.

Not the worst cozy mystery I've read, not the best. I just needed something quick and breezy, and this fit the bill and kept me entertained.
