This is more than a cookery book, it’s actually a lovely reminder of how the author and her mum began cooking together again, after her mum was diagnosed with dementia. As a form of mutual therapy they shared their joint love of cooking over on Instagram and gained many followers.
These are simple recipes but done in such an elaborate way, I too was managed to fool people I was good at cooking! There are detailed ingredients and easy to understand methods to follow. Plus there are many equally tasty looking colourful photos to inspire you.
Beautiful and moving. Not the usual thing you’d say about a cookbook, right?
“Soulful Baker” is a bakery book with heart.

All three of these stories will get you in the Christmas spirit with a dead body along the way. We do get some time enjoying holiday traditions (recipes included with all three stories), some of them unique to Maine, which is a lot of fun. The mysteries are all good, although the first seems to wander quite a bit before it gets fully engaging. If you are a fan of one of these authors, here is a good way or sample some others while catching up with your favorite sleuth at Christmas time.
NOTE: I received an ARC of this book.

The pacing was just right for this book. The characters were great! I especially loved Jeanne and Molly! Nick was great as well. I couldn't stand Marcus though. He seemed to be too needy and pushy which is what I think the author was trying to convey.
The plot is fairly predictable although there was one twist I didn't see coming!! However, this didn't put me off.
Dangerous Waters is such a sweet read, and it's reads so easily! Anne Allen is fantastic at writing. This is her first novel, but it would seem that she's been writing for ages with how well this book was done.
The story just works. And this book has made me want to visit Guernsey!
I loved the fact that the author included recipes at the end of the book as well. A nice touch!

As Hannah tries to occupy herself with a baking frenzy for the holidays, she is thrown into a new mystery when PK (her husband’s assistant) is murdered while driving Ross’s car. Was Ross the intended victim and poor PK caught in the crossfires? Or was someone plotting against PK?
Hannah with the help of her sister Michelle, Norman, Mike, and Lonnie work to uncover the mystery and along the way discover that no one really knew Ross.
Joanne has a way of making you identify and care for all the characters in her mysteries. She keeps you guessing and weaves a very enjoyable tale. And who can forget all the yummy recipes that follow each chapter?!
