review 1: I powered through this book and read it in 1 day. I really enjoyed reading it. This is the fourth book in the series, but the first one that I have read. I didn't have any problems getting into the story and getting invested in the characters. I liked Chloe and Josh, and enjoyed their relationship. I liked how the author went into detail about the food. The only thing I really didn't like was the ending. It seemed a little abrupt, and I don't like the direction the series is going in. Still, I would like to go back and read the first three in the series.
review 2: A book that combines both food writing and crime should have been just down my lane, except that it wasn't. The writing style was simply boring, the story didn't have a punchline (unless you count the... more departure to hawaai in the end as one) and the most obnoxious character is the one who did it. The end looks like as if the authors feared that they would annoy half their readers no matter what their heroine decided to do, and so left it dangling there.Why am I giving it 2 stars? Because it actually has at the end the recipes for the dishes in the story. They do look quite interesting. less
