I read this because I found it on the book swap table at work and I'm currently obsessed with all things pumpkin. It seemed appropriate to read this little mystery.
What a waste of time! It was like watching an episode of "Murder,She Wrote" that took days instead of an hour. I know, I know, I should have expected that.
It was just so overly polite and persnickety from start to finish. I was completely annoyed by Phyllis and all her friends and especially by her grandson and his 'fection (aka ear infection) who served ABSOLUTELY NO PURPOSE.
The mystery itself was not too exciting and the sudden solution out of left field. Not nearly enough clues for my liking. I also didn't understand the serious dislike of the police detective....maybe that's a holdover from a previous book? I'll never forget because I won't be touching this series ever again.
Not recommended even for a time-killer beach read or for a plane ride. SNOOOOZER from start to finish.
(I will be keeping the pumpkin cheesecake muffin recipe though!)… (plus d'informations)
