*I received a copy of this book on NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for this opportunity.*

If you love the Great British Bake Off (GBBO), murder, and character development then do I have a recommendation for you.

THE GOLDEN SPOON is told through seven (that's right, seven) different points of view-- and Maxwell somehow manages to make each narrator distinctive and interesting in their own right. Which also meant, despite my worries, it was easy to differentiate between each character because they were all so unique.

While the story line wasn't complex or intricate-- this story was still sumptuous, fun, and such a pleasure to read. The murder mystery portion of the story was slow to begin, but Maxwell pulled it off with her wonderful cast of characters (can you tell how much I love them all?) and then, in what felt like a moment, everything began to snap into place like a puzzle.
