Book Review: Chocolate Chip Cookie Murder by Joanne Fluke

10/30/2019

 
Chocolate Chip Cookie Murder (Hannah Swensen, #1)Chocolate Chip Cookie Murder by Joanne Fluke
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This was a decent cozy mystery. I didn't find it particularly gripping, though. I was able to put it down for days at a time, without the burning need to keep reading or have the mystery solved. A little more suspense or intrigue would have been nice.

One thing that consistently bothered me (and I'm worried about seeing in the rest of the series) is the indirect fat shaming. Every time that there was an opportunity to bring up weight, size, "chins", or "ample" anything, it was there. And entirely unnecessary.
