This week I read The Peach Cobbler Murder by Joanne Fluke. You guys, I promise I'm trying to read other things!! I just really enjoy these and I'm so invested in my favorite characters that I just can't stop!
Synopsis:
As she sits in her nearly empty store on Groundhog Day, Hannah can only hope that spring is just around the corner--"and that the popularity of the new Magnolia Blossom Bakery is just a passing fad. The southern hospitality of Lake Eden's two Georgia transplants, Shawna Lee and Vanessa Quinn, is grating on Hannah's nerves--"and cutting into her profits. At least Hannah has her business partner Lisa's wedding to look forward to. Unfortunately, Shawna Lee has finagled an invitation to the reception--"and is bringing her Southern Peach Cobbler for the dessert table.
Things go from bad to worse when Shawna Lee and Hannah's sometime-boyfriend, Detective Mike Kingston, are no-shows to the wedding. When Hannah sees lights on at the Magnolia Blossom Bakery after the reception, she investigates--"and finds Shawna Lee shot to death. With a little help from her friends, Hannah's determined to track down whoever had the right ingredients to whip up a murder.
My thoughts:
I really enjoyed this book. Hannah's "arch nemisis", Shawna Lee bites the dust after opening a competing bakery and stealing all her business. And attempting to steal Mike. Not that I'm team Mike , because I'm totally team Norman, but no one strolls into Lake Eden and takes Hannah's man! Do I sound obsessively crazed?! Because I am. If I didn't have my future cat names already picked out (Stephanie Plum and Joseph Morelli. For real.) I'd be naming them Hannah and Norman! Or Moshie and something else. Back to the story - I enjoyed the twist in this one. . . let's just say it involves Delores (Hannah's pushy, nosey yet endearing mother). You really can't go wrong with this series, I promise.
