Death By The Dozen (2011) - Plot & Excerpts

This is the third book in the Cupcake Bakery mystery series and has bakers Melanie and Angie entering a cooking competition with a secret ingredient in each round. They have been practicing by having Tate give them an ingredient to work with, the weirder, the better. The two are competing against their arch-rival, Olivia. Mel is surprised to find out that two of the judges are former teachers from her culinary school, now Food Network stars, one of whom was a mentor to her. When one of the judges ends up dead, Mel is determined to help find out who did this, and in doing so, puts their own lives in danger. Adding to the story line is a new apprentice from a local high school, Oz, who looks scary, but has great cooking chops, and the ongoing relationship issues between Angie and Tate, along with a competition host that could be a dead ringer for Guy Fieri. The characters are really developing nicely, and as usual the book includes recipes discussed during the book. Since I don't normally write reviews unless I have something specific to say, here's the break down of how I rate my books...1 star... This book was bad, so bad I may have given up and skipped to the end. I will avoid this author like the plague in the future.2 stars... This book was not very good, and I won't be reading any more from the author.3 stars... This book was ok, but I won't go out of my way to read more, But if I find another book by the author for under a dollar I'd pick it up.4 stars... I really enjoyed this book and will definitely be on the look out to pick up more from the series/author.5 stars... I loved this book! It had earned a permanent home in my collection and I'll be picking up the rest of the series and other books from the author ASAP.
