Sprinkle with Murder

August 2022 Hoopla Bonus Borrows Recommendation


Yes! Now that is how you write a cozy mystery. First of all, I LOVE that this didn't start with a breakup, divorce or cheating husband trope. Instead, it's three childhood friends who open a bakery together. They have a history to explain their friendship and for the most part they are going about their normal lives. When Tate's bridezilla fiance is found deceased, all eyes turn to Mel (mc). As Mel tries to clear her name, we encounter a small group of supporting characters. There is enough to make you go “now who did it and how?” But not enough to be overwhelming. Overall this was a solid cozY mystery for an afternoon.
