#FeelinTheLove 🍫♥️
The Bakeshop Mystery series is a favorite of mine & it‘s currently at book 20. I loved Book 5 as it‘s set in a #Chocolate festival in Ashland, Oregon where the series takes place.
I read it for review in 2017 & made the Mango Chai Latte & Chocolate Truffles with Coffee & Almond from the recipes in the back. https://kahakaikitchen.blogspot.com/2017/01/the-book-tour-stops-here-review-of_1...

I don‘t have a specific book I turn to for comfort but I do have a genre and that is cozy mysteries!
pick⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️A beautiful written book about an ugly subject matter. Trigger warning, child abduction and abuse. I loved the way the author wove in fairy tales as a coping mechanism to help deal with horrific circumstances and the power of imagination used to survive.
pickAfter reading some of Rossons‘s current work, I found that The Mercy of the Tide was atmospheric, impactful, and beautifully haunting. Imagine how sorrow and loss becomes a vortex of grief. And yet, the sudden tragedy is just a warning for a larger catastrophe. There is a string of connection with characters, though all are individuals. A short, but terrific, read.
pickWhat a delightful book! It‘s a story of friendship and life choices, with wonderfully drawn characters. The main characters are food and wine bloggers, and now that I‘m blogging, I appreciate the community that these women create. As with pretty much everything this author writes, food is integral to the story; maybe that‘s why I like her books so much. Definitely recommend. FYI, it‘s tomato bisque with Parmesan croutons.
This has been on my Kindle for a while. I‘ve liked everything I‘ve read by this author, and I thought this looked appetizing for my next read.
pickFirst finish for 2025. This is the second book in the Bakeshop Cozy Mystery Series (#SeriesLive2025). A good continuation of the series. A baking competition comes to Ashland, OR and Jules is talked into being a contestant. It was a fun book, and I look forward to reading more of these series.
This book was a fascinating, digressive wild ride. If you're able to accept the male chauvinist redneck attitudes, it is quite the slow-moving train wreck.
