paddlefoot55 's review for:

Cruel Candy by Mildred Abbott




I have seen many Facebook friends post about this series, and it has been a while since I have read a cozy mystery, so why the heck not dive in.

I dove right in to the audiobook.

This is a cute and quirky series that I will definitely be reading/listening to more of in the future.

At first, I found the narrator a little - I won't say annoying as that is not the word, but she sounded for a while like a young girl rather than the woman that Fred is. However about 1/4 in I got used to her and it didn't bother me after that.

I enjoyed the story, even though I figured out pretty quickly who the killer was, but was not sure of their motives.

Watson is my spirit animal -feed me snacks, pronto!

One thing that irked me - the constant talk of Fred's height - she is 5'10", not gigantor!
