“This cookbook was a straight up delight to read, and I absolutely can't wait to make some recipes from it! I wound up saving quite a few recipes, which is always ideal when reading a cookbook, but the amount of new books I found to read through this is a little staggering. Highly recommend if you're a cookbook and mystery fan - really a fun read either way!”
“I enjoy "reading" cookbooks, not just for the recipes, but the stories that are told as part of that recipe. This cookbook was a compilation of various recipes from enumerable contemporary mystery writers. Some recipes were straight from the pages of their novels, composed of dishes their detectives either cooked and/or ate. Others were recipes the authors themselves whipped up, often between lengthy writing sessions when they stopped long enough to realize they had forgotten to eat their lunch. I'm not sure how many of these recipes I'll actually make, but it was interesting to read more about these authors, and perhaps discover some new series to check out it future.”
