Great meals don’t have to be a mystery—but they can come from a mystery. Selecting the most delicious recipes from some of the most popular names in crime solving, The Cozy Cookbook serves up mouth-watering appetizers, entrèes, and desserts that will leave your family or book club group asking, “Whodunit?”
In addition to recipes, choose a sleuth du jour from our menu of mystery series and get a taste of each of our authors’ bread and butter—page-turning puzzles and stay-up-all-night suspense in excerpts from their bestselling works.
Whether you like your meals sautéed, roasted, baked, or served cold like revenge, The Cozy Cookbook has something to satisfy every mystery fan.
My Review
This is an absolutely beautiful book from cover to cover. The scene on the front cover of a kitchen with a cat and dog is so peaceful looking and very inviting to want to cook there. I can picture baking all kinds of goodies there.
This is a collection of recipes and book excerpts from some of the top bestselling cozy mystery authors today. The book is divided into different sections for different meals and desserts. There are, also, excerpts from each author’s books. Some of these authors I have already read, others have been on my TBR forever. So, many of the excerpts are new to me. It gave a very small taste of what these authors offer in their books and now I’m anxious to read all of them. I wish I could read faster!
If you like to bake, cook or entertain, this is the perfect book for you. Even if you don’t, this is still a great book to have in your collection. I enjoyed it very much. A treasure for all cozy mystery lovers.

ReplyDeleteSo many cozies have recipes that I just don't have enough room for all of them. Since I first started reading cozies I've wished that they were all (or at least a lot of them) gathered together in one book. Now they are. YAY! Can't wait to get my hands on this.
