Of Mice and Minestrone: Hap and Leonard: The Early Years by Joe R. Lansdale

5.0

A delicious collection of short stories for Hap and Leonard fans old and new. For the old fans, (like myself) you learn more about the things that made Hap grow into the person he is. For people new to Hap and Leonard, this is a good introduction to a great series.

The stories added depth to the wonderful relationship, and I breezed through them in one sitting.

After the stories, I was pleasantly surprised to find recipes for some of Hap and Leonard's favorite treats. I cooked Hap's - Death by Chili for supper last night and it was delicious. Although, I would recommend putting your toilet roll in the fridge for the morning after!

Thanks to NetGalley and Tachyon Publications for providing me with a free digital copy of this title in exchange for an honest review.
