Cute, quick, enjoyable read :-)
Good grief, this could have been so much better. One and done.
DNF: abandoned ~14%. Didn’t like the protagonist or the reader. I really considered giving this book more time to change my mind, but ultimately decided it wasn’t worth it— too many other books out there :) Moving on.
I love a good mystery. And I love that cozy mysteries don't make me think too hard and aren't super gruesome. But I'm beginning to feel that I wasted my time when books start to feel the same. I loved Fiona Grace's first book. She has a fun, easy style of writing. But I have two major problems with her writing and this book highlighted those more than ever. She doesn't do her research (I guess there's no time for that if you publish a book every month) and she uses the same template for all of h...
1.5. I am more than willing to suspend disbelief for the sake of a good book. This was not a good book. A good cozy mystery gives you the warm fuzzies and has a smart, likeable main character with fun, quirky friends and family. The main character was ridiculous and didn't have an ounce of common sense. A newcomer to the town, but she ran all over confronting strangers with charges of murder. She opened a business on a whim with no business plan and no money beyond one month's rent for her busin...
*I received an ARC of this book in exch asnge for a n honest review*A pretty standard cozy, this is a fun and light read for typical cozy lovers but I had a few issues with it. Because its the first in its series there is *a lot* of setting up the scenario - its more than a third of the way in before a body drops. The main character is very passive aggressively disparaging of people with anxiety/mental illness and its incredibly irksome.Typical amateur sleuth has dysfunctional relationship with
A clean read that is sugary sweet.
Couldn't finish itRarely do I give up on a book, but Beachfront Bakery was the most lame and amateurish book I have ever bought. I kept hoping it would get better but gave up about 25% in. It doesn't even deserve one star.
A Killer Cupcake is the first book in the Beachfront Bakery series. It's been a little while since I've read a cozy mystery book. So, I'll admit that I was kind of excited to jump into this one. Even though I'm pretty sure I didn't finish a bunch of other cozy mystery series. Which, yes, is awkward but I will continue my ghosting ways until I remember which ones I've actually ghosted.In this, you will meet Allison. She's a pretty likable character throughout the book. Even if she was quick to be...
I was attracted to this one due to its foodie title and having read a few of this type of cosy mystery novels I thought I'd give it a go.It was a fun book to read, not overly exciting and I found the murder and mystery part seemed to only come into it about 2/3's of the way through. I did like the quirky characters, the two pizza brothers and Scruff the dog. It was a bit of fun, easy to read and quite light-hearted.A Killer CupcakeFiona Grace
I thought I wouldn't mind seeing what's out there in mysteries, so I just sorted the Hoopla list by popular and picked something on the top row. Alas, it was this book.I'm not sure what stands out to me the most about this book. Maybe that the main character whose surname is Sweet needed a lot of brainstorming to name her bakery. Maybe that everyone in the book misuses the word undercut when they mean outbid. Maybe it's the play pretend diversity where the boyfriend that dumps her in chapter one...
This is an extremely strange book with a doormat heroine who is used and abused by one narcissistic jerk of a subcharacter after another. Good grief.DNF.I got the audiobook version free through Google Play and am returning it.
This was my first Fiona Grace book. Boy what a treat! I loved it and Scruffy! Already have the next in this series.
Fun cozy mystery.. first in a short series... Very enjoyable.
This was a fun beginning to a new series and what a great location for a bakery! I liked Ali, but I really liked her brother Teddy. He really cracked me up sometimes but he got her to do something she probably wouldn't have done on her own after losing her job. From a new cranky competitor neighbor business to a cute surf shop dude, the boardwalk has all types of business. Some might have been even a tad...shady? Ali knew that someone was hiding something, so like any good new sleuth, she starte...
