REVIEW: Strawberried Alive

 Strawberried Alive
Author: Jenn McKinlay


14 down -- 2 to go!! 

I just finished Strawberried Alive and am happy to report that it's another fun installment in the Cupcake Bakery Mystery series. I needed an entertaining series to read to keep my mind off current events, the news, negative stuff for awhile. And, so far, this series fits the bill perfectly. I have binge read my way through 14 books so far....in less than a month. So yep -- my plan is working. I unplugged from the news and plugged into cozies. Best decision I've made in a long time! 

This time, someone is targeting business owners in Old Town, a historic district in Scottsdale. First someone takes a pot shot at Mel while she's at the bakery at night. Then the owner of a nearby business is shot.....and the attacks keep happening....finally leading to a death.  Someone is literally trying to kill business in Old Town. Can the cupcake crew break the case before business in the district is dead? 

I enjoyed this story. The mystery definitely kept my attention from start to finish. There were plenty of suspects, action and twists. The person I thought had done it was innocent...ooops. :) And, as usual, the book has yummy cupcake recipes in the back! 

Moving on to the next book -- Sugar Plum Poisoned!  After that one, there will only be one more book in this series left on my TBR shelf.  Whew! :)
