This month for one of my book clubs we read Chocolate Chip Cookie Murder by Joanne Fluke. It's the first in a series of Hannah Swensen Mysteries (she's the main character). It was totally fun, light, and kept you guessing until the end. I loved it and want to read more of the series now and it doesn't hurt that they are all very "sweet." LOL! The next one is Strawberry Shortcake Murder followed by Blueberry Muffin Murder, Lemon Meringue Murder, Fudge Cupcake Murder, Sugar Cookie Murder, Peach Cobbler Murder, and Cherry Cheesecake Murder. How fun is that?! There's even a new one coming out early next year so Fluke is still writing them.
They also include recipes talked about in the books so last night we all brought treats from the book and they were SO yummy. The main character, Hannah, owns a little bakery called The Cookie Jar and seems to have a knack for finding murder victims and then helps to solve the mysteries. If you want something light, fun, and easy to read, check these books out!

Sounds yummy ;)
Well, your book club was GREAT! Loved the book, loved the food.
Sounds fun. I'll have to add that to my list.
thanks i think i'll add it to my reading list and check it out.
I've read the whole series, and they're pretty fun. Like you said, light, easy reads, but sometimes don't you just need something mindless to lose yourself in? By far the best part are the amazing recipes- her carrot cake is absolutely amazing! Glad you've discovered the series!
I'll have to check those out. Ive been needing some new reads!
