Thank you, @CSeydel for this #WorstRead 2024 #BookBracket.
This book just wasn‘t for me and I LOVE cozy mysteries. I didn‘t like any of the characters and I just didn‘t care for the story.
Tagged was an easy choice for worst read of July. I just didn‘t care about any of the characters or the drama manufactured by the MC.

The tagged is the first in the series but it‘s a spinoff series so I felt like I was missing a lot. I also didn‘t really care for any of the characters.
July in Christmas River was fun. Mayhem is book 2 in the Christmas River series and this is a series I‘ll continue.

panNope, nope, nope. I admit, my standards for cozy mysteries are not very high, but I cannot stand it when the drama is manufactured by the main character‘s own over the top bad decision making. It‘s a major pet peeve. 😑
The real mystery is why I read the whole thing.

Had an early dinner with @KLyn1 and now going to enjoy this amazing cheesecake I brought home! #newyearseats #readinthenewyear @hermyknee
pickThis was a great book! A suspenseful mystery complicated enough to keep you guessing. Jake finds a dead man in her chocolate shop, the police suspect her partner Ellie. But they have 28 cheesecakes to make for July 4th with a hurricane approaching, her son is missing and her dad left the hospital on his own after a heart attack. Poignant family issues are mixed in. And don't forget the amazing chocolate! And sweet rescue dogs too. A must read!
pickThis is really more of the beginning of a spinoff series than it is a brand-new series, because it follows characters established in Graves‘ other series, but it was still a pleasant read. Quick and easy, with lots of intrigue in a sleepy coastal town...and lots of chocolate. #deathbychocolatecherrycheesecake #sarahgraves
This is what my morning consists of so far; not too bad. (We did have to scold two guys for being loud af - where did these people learn library etiquette? - but it could definitely be worse!) Already an hour in, and about half a book left to finish by 5:00. I think I can do it. #deathbychocolatecherrycheesecake #sarahgraves
As we know, cozy mysteries are an addiction for me, especially when there‘s food involved. 😂 I also really love finding new series, so I‘m looking forward to this! (Plus, it‘s due tomorrow and someone has a hold on it, so I better get cracking.) #deathbychocolatecherrycheesecake #sarahgraves
