I am not sure why I liked this book so much. It surprised me how she would be able to solve the mystery given she was new to town and the first third of book she was either in the resturant or alone in her apartment. I liked the imperfect heroine. I liked her May-December quasy romance. I was motivated to make soup and sandwiches while reading and I didn't figure out who did it. It wasn't a great mystery but was a good story. I'll continue the series. In A SPOONFUL OF MURDER, my first visit to Snowflake, Vermont was a delightful one. You know, with the exception of a dead body. I thoroughly enjoyed meeting Lucky Jamieson, her grandfather Jack, the entire staff of By the Spoonful, as well as Dr. Elias Scott and Mayor Elizabeth Dove.The entire story held my attention and the search for the killer kept me guessing. There were plenty of suspects to go around and so little to know about the victim, that anything was possible.They were a few typos or mistakes in the writing, but that happens to anyone and should not be held against the author since it goes to so many others to be checked over and approved and they missed it as well. But the story was so interesting and I was invested enough in knowing who the killer was, that those minor glitches didn’t bother me. Maybe because my reviews normally have flaws and I am the self proclaimed queen of typos. We’re all human. It happens.That being said, true cozy mystery fans will really enjoy this book. The setting, the people, and the storyline are just the reasons why we read cozies in the first place. I have also read the next two books in the series, A BROTH OF BETRAYAL and A ROUX OF REVENGE and you can find my reviews on their home pages.

I'd say this was barely a two. The formula was too pronounced and too predictable.
