Cozy mystery set at Christmas- there's a definite feeling of time travel reading these mysteries (not least because the lead is a caterer in the mode of Martha Stewart/Silver Palate). A quick read, things get a little nutty at the end (this has been true of the previous two books as well)

I'm very happy to have discovered another good mystery series. Entertaining but not overwhelming. As my mother would call it, mindless. You read and enjoy but don't get worked up or too absorbed. Perfect for when you can only read a little bit every so often! Looking forward to reading more from this series.

I always enjoy this series when I need something light, easy reading and fun to rest my brain and body.

I don't find Faith all that likeable, to be honest, and the constant judgment of everyone and everything that isn't from Manhattan grates on me, and yet I still keep coming back and reading more in the series. I find them good as light, "filler" mysteries, perfect for when I'm between books and just want to read something I don't have to take too seriously.

Some odd pacing, but otherwise enjoyable. It was nice to see a sleuth not hide the ball constantly. Tell people what you know!
