A Dash of Death

⭐⭐

It is an unfortunate fact of life that not all “cozies” are created equal, and such was the case with this one. Generally cozy mysteries are just that...cozy. Small, quaint towns with tons of character. Quirky, but lovable side characters. A slightly annoying lead character that you can't help but love. A good mystery, a dash of humor, all wrapped up with a few recipes (the shining star of this book. I can't wait to try making them). Apart from the aforementioned recipes, this book had none of those elements. The setting was boring. The mystery was slow. Samantha's two friends were okay. However, Samantha herself was just unlikable. So “whoa is me” and unsympathetic. And to top it all off, this was once again an ARC that was missing letters, making it very annoying to read. Overall, A Dash Of Death was a “meh” book and I don't think I will continue with this series.
