Sugar Grove Mystery
review 1: I really enjoyed this first edition to the Sugar Grove Mystery series. Dani Greene and her family are in the maple syrup business. They produce, sell and even provide syrup for the annual pancake eating contest, in which Danni's grandpa holds the undefeated title. The Greene family comes under investigation when another local, known for causing trouble, turns up poisoned during the contest. This book is full of fun, quirky characters that I absolutely loved. I like Danni's strong, spunky personality and can't wait to learn more about her. Danni's best friend, Piper, is the perfect sidekick. There's is also a budding romance with the local Fish and Game officer and quite a few funny scenes including some close encountered with a few exotic animals. It was a light, quick re... moread that left me adding book 2 to my to-read list immediately.
review 2: Drizzled with Death by Jessie Crockett is the first in 'A Sugar Grove Mystery'series. The annual Sap Bucket Brigade Pancake- Eating contest is prematurely halted when much hated Alanza speedwell is poisoned and the Greener Pastures maple syrup is blamed. It is up to Dani Greene to save her family's reputation and find the real killer, and at the same time assist in rounding up escaped exotic animals. A funny and entertaining debut. Not sure about the recipes though- the mixture of ingredients seems a bit weird. less

This book was great! The amateur sleuth, Dani Greene, was perfect. I can't wait for the next book.

Started out as an entertaining read, but the final 2/3 of the book dragged.
