A baking cozy murder mystery with a mc who has no idea how to cook or bake when she inherits her great aunts bakery, house, and her dog… but wait, something isn’t right with the way her aunt died and how everyone is trying to make her sell.
Once I got over the whole hashtag thing(which was annoying at times), it was a fun ride.
This was a quick and fun read for me. Kept me reading to find out who was behind these murders and what are their motive..
Loved how open arms Maddy was to everyone who were good and close friends with her great aunt. She wasn’t dismissive to anyone and actually cared about how they were treated by other people.
Whenever I thought I knew who was the murder, something always gets me second guessing because of the interaction Maddy has with someone but in the end I was right! Loved it.
Sadly, the mystery isn’t done yet as we haven’t found out who killed her great aunt but I hope we find out in the second book!!!!!!!
