REVIEW: Pumpkin Spice Peril

 Pumpkin Spice Peril
Author: Jenn McKinlay


Finished another book in this series! Having a great time binge reading my way through all of the books. I needed a series that was just entertaining, light and happy. What could be happier than cupcakes? Totally what I needed! 

Pumpkin Spice Peril is the 12th book in the series. This time Mel and the bakery gang are planning to supply cupcakes to a local art gallery as a good friend of Mel's is having her glass art featured in a special display. Rene has been working so hard to prepare for the event that she seems not quite herself. The whole situation gets much, much worse when the artist is poisoned.  Can the gang find out who poisoned Mel's friend? 

I enjoyed this book! And I really got excited about the pumpkin spice cupcake recipe -- only to find out my copy of the book had the recipe pages missing! Luckily, a bookish pal had the recipes saved and emailed me a copy. I can still bake cupcakes! :) 

The mystery moved along at a nice pace. There were plenty of suspects and a few twists here and there. The story also had some character development and new things coming up for the gang. I'm anxious to see what happens in the next book!! 

On to book 13 -- For Batter or Worse!
