Great plot, keeps syou guessing (0 more)

Annoying main character (0 more)

Great suspense.

This is a good book and I would recommend it to mystery/suspense fans. However, I found the main character, Rachel annoying. She whines often and many times is just off the rail. But, I like the writing and believe this is done intentionally. Rachel hates herself, she is often angry with herself, she is hitting rock bottom, and why would the reader not feel the same way in light of a first person narrative. The writing makes you feel for Rachel, your embarrassed for her, confused, angry, upset, you pity her, in a way you come to understand her, and it adds to the narrative of the novel. You think you have it figured out (and you might the clues are there), but at times your not sure (Rachel is an unreliable narrator). This book is worth a read.

Erika Kehlet (21 KP) rated The Crêpes of Wrath (A Pancake House Mystery Book 1) in Books

Feb 21, 2018

With this installment, the Pancake House Mystery series is off to a great start. I loved the characters, the sea-side setting, and the suspense. Throw in some delicious sounding recipes and a little romance, and this was an all-around wonderful cozy mystery. There were enough suspects to keep me guessing right up to the end, and I couldnt put it down until I found out who did it. Cozy fans shouldnt miss this one.

A word of warning about this book if you are a fan of pancakes, waffles, and other such breakfasty goodies, then dont read it on an empty stomach! :)
