Who's Afraid of Virginia Ham: Library Edition

Rating:
Summary: Very disappointed
Review: Having read and re-read the first two Chas Wheatley mysteries, I was very disappointed with this one. Most books I can hardly put down, this one I had trouble picking up each time I would slog through a chapter. The murder comes way too late and the solution spins out way too fast. I'm looking forward to Book 4 and hopefully a return to the page turner category.

Rating:
Summary: Strong character development, mystery is a little weak.
Review: I agree with the reviewer who wrote that this book was not a page turner. However, I still think it was a very good book, just not terribly strong as a mystery. The food descriptions, and Ms. Richman's knowledge of food and the industry is incredibly strong and accurate. The characters are interesting and realistically developed. It is a very enjoyable read, and I recommend it!

Summary: Not as good as the previous two in this series
Review: Many of the characters form the previous two books reappear and they are fun, but the story is pretty silly. Overall, this was a disappointment.
