For Batter or Worse
Author: Jenn McKinlay
Well, I binged my way through yet another book in this series. Since I put myself on a self-imposed news ban, I have been reading a lot of books instead. So much better for my mental health than depressing news programs. I'm keeping the smile on my face....and making spaces on my TBR bookshelves!
For Batter or Worse is the 13th book in the Cupcake Bakery series.
There's a lot going on in this book. Two main characters are getting married. Another is pregnant. One got a new job. Just a lot going on. I liked the way all those background plot situations worked out, except for one little twist in one of them that I thought was....well, stupid and unnecessary. Other than that one little thing, I liked all the character developments.
The mystery moved along at a nice pace. There is some entertaining amateur sleuthing as usual with several suspects and a few surprise twists. The recipes in the back of the book look yummy. I shared them with a family member who is a trained chef who loves to bake cakes. Since I don't eat grain or much sugar, cupcake recipes aren't really my thing. But my family member will most likely try at least one of the recipes. :)
I definitely enjoyed this story. Read the book in a day....and now moving on to the next -- Strawberried Alive!
