I finished reading this book this weekend.  It was a good book for me for now.  It was light and fun.  Hannah has once again discovered a murder.  For a baker, she really stumbles into trouble!  Since most of the police department are suspects, she has to use her detective skills to solve the murder and get her town back to normal.  At the end of each chapter are recipes for the good food that the characters eat - I am hoping to try out the lemon bars.  

The story isn’t really that different from the first Fluke book I read.  Hannah still hasn’t decided on who her boyfriend is!  I do like them though.  It’s a nice thing to read to pass the time.  

Catering to Nobody by Diane Mott Davidson 301 pages. Bantam Books, c2002. $7.99

Our story opens with Goldy catering a wake.  Unfortunately her ex-father-in-law gynecologist Fritz Korman gets sick and Goldy is accused of poisoning him.  The police shut down Goldy’s catering business until they can clear her name.  As the police are very busy, Goldy takes matters into her own hands to prove her innocence.  Along the way, she gives us recipes and a peak into small town life.

I enjoyed this book.  It is a quick read that is entertaining.  It’s really fun to come across so many interesting recipes while reading a mystery.  It’

s a one-of-a-kind series.  I am hoping to try a recipe from the book soon and will post my experience.

Tangled Roots by G.G. Vandagriff 294 pages. Deseret Book, c2007. $14.95

Tangled Roots is the third book in a mystery series about two women who do genealogical research. Alex Campbell and her friend Briggie research a genogram to help a young girl in trouble. While researching her ancestors, they discover unsolved murders that others have tried to keep secret. As they try to find the killer(s), they find themselves in serious danger.This book surprised me. I expected it to be terrible. A genealogy mystery? Come on. But, it was actually decent. I can see how some get very into genealogy. If you like a mystery, you may enjoy this book.
