An amusing, easy book. This book has short chapters and a lovable plot. Great beach/vacation read

I loved the cozy mystery feel with the British Bake-off type setting in the beginning and the story really took off and became quite riveting. I really enjoyed it.

Really enjoyed the second half of this book. It has a very slow start, and might have done better as a novella. I found the first 1/3 of the book to be almost painfully slow, but the writing was good enough that I pushed through and I'm glad I did. Loved the concept though, and I would be happy to read again, just probably from part way through.

British bake off with murder how fun. Some of the twists shocked me. I wish we had more if Peter I really liked him. I also related very hard to pradyumna. It was weirdly written but I enjoyed the multiple pov's. I wasn't expecting the body to be who it actually wad. Although I wish the murder happened sooner so we got more mystery to it.
