. . . credit goes to the clever structure of the book; the synopses and excerpts from each book also gave me a good scope of the entire series, and worked as a perfect teaser to whet my appetite. Without revealing too much, they certainly piqued my interest and made me want to pick up the series from the beginning.

And I thought
There is really nothing I like more than a good Cozy read and a good 'ole cookbook. Nancy J. Cohen smart girl just put it all together for me.
If your a Cozy reader and you love cookbooks then this one is for you.
It is filled with recipes originally found in some great Cozy Mysteries.
I loved that I was introduced to quite a few new authors.
I loved that a few excerpts were included and the 'Meet the Sleuth' section.
I am looking forward to the chance to try a few recipes. My
TBR list just grew too!
