This follow-up book sees David again solving mysteries with his own (internal) Scooby-gang. It felt like something of a re-telling of the first book and wasn't as compelling here. David's character and madness develop quite a bit here and it is set up for more in the future, which I would relish. Just a little disappointed that it wasn't made more of.

A mostly fun collection of food related murder by a wide variety of authors. A few of the mysteries were rushed at the end, but for a most part they worked. However, there was one story that was disturbing and I didn't care for at all.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2206 KP) rated Crime de Cocoa (A Chocoholic Mystery #1-3) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
The collection of the first three Chocoholic mysteries plus the short story that was set and released before the series started. If you haven't started the series, this might be the place to start. The stories are light but fun and the characters are great.

Lumos (380 KP) rated Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe in Books
Feb 16, 2018
This was such a sweet book. I couldn't put it down. I loved traveling with Ari and Dante as they discovered all the mysteries (good and bad) that life has to offer. This author did a wonderful job of letting readers fall in love with the characters at their own pace rather than shoving them in their faces with an obvious "you must like these characters".

Cute cozy mystery that will make you smile!
This book was absolutely delightful! Not just for fans of cozy mysteries, this seems like it would appeal to all sorts of mystery lovers. I am absolutely in love with Flavia de Luce, a precocious 11-year-old with a penchant for poisons. I laughed so much reading this, and can't wait to read more of her adventures!

I didn’t get into this book as quickly as the others. There was a bit too much time spent on high school drama. But then it got good, unraveling mysteries and getting caught up in capers. That’s what I’m here for. It wasn’t as silly as the others but the serious subjects really needed some gravity. A good wrap up and I’m glad it didn’t end tragically.
Just like any other Harry Potter fan, I read this book in a day. Loved the story, loved how it's all twisted with the previous parts and even though it doesn't contain all the mysteries and spells and magical moments, it has a lot to offer, like a deeply explained love between a father and a son, or a bravery and unsettled kid.. Lovely book!
