A Fudge Shop Mystery
review 1: I really did not like this book. I'm not sure if the author thought she was being funny, or if someone would really think the way that her main character thinks, but it seemed to jump around a little too much. Usually, an author tries to get you to LIKE the main character. I don't think I would even like to be acquaintances with her! I kept wishing she would fall into Lake Michigan and let someone else take over! She seemed to be overly dramatic and air-headed. And the recipes she hands out? Bogus! She spends all this time talking about her fantastic fudge (with her over-the-top buddy, who can only speak in alliterations)and then the recipe is for microwave fudge, which she disdains all thru the book...The only saving grace for this book was the end, when her ex (who was d... moreown on the docks, looking for his DOG...hmmm, I was wondering there for a minute-because it was obvious HE knew SHE was there)walks into her shop...BUT, there is an excerpt from the following book, and it does NOT continue from that point. Sorry, poor writing and NOT INTERESTED in the next one. The plot was ok, but Ava was not. And since the book was about Ava, well. I'm done.
review 2: Lousy, The characters were uninspired, the story line was lame and the whole concept was unbelievable. What health department would ever give a food service license to a fudge shop that shared a store space with a bait shop? One in Mongolia? Ah, but I'm insulting the Mongolians. Just the thought made me sick and I didn't like the heroine one little bit. Not only should she go to jail, so should the author for inflicting this rubbish on an unsuspecting public. less
