What a lovely story, thought provoking and both moving and entertaining.
I loved the mix of personal growing and healing and the experience of getting a pet in your life.
I'm the owner of a rescue cat and I was able to recognise some of my thought and experience.
I look forward to reading other book by this author.
Highly recommended!

I loved everything in this book: the style of writing, how it guides you through different recipes more or less complex, and the lovely illutstration.
It's perfect if you want to learn to cook or if you want to check other way of cooking something you already did according to "mama" :)
I want to try some of the recipes as I really liked them.
A very good reference, highly recommended!

This is the first book I read in this series and it was an amazing discovery.
It's a cozy mystery but also a book about tragedies and people being hurt by stupidity and arrogance.
I loved the plot, the cast of characters, Rose above all.
The mystery was good, it kept me guessing till the end and the solution was a surprise.
I look forward to reading other instalment in this series.
Highly recommended!

I love this series and think that it improves with each instalment, this one was the best in the series.
It's not the typical cozy mystery, the characters are not pretty young things but woman who are "damaged" and are healing.
It's like reading a good women's fiction book with a mystery.
There're strong elements like friendship, sufferance and healing and support.
I loved the realistic description of the town that has to face the economic problems, people pawning their heirlooms to survive.
I loved the characters, each of them, even if flaw, damaged or suffering.
I loved the mystery that kept me guessing till the end.
This is one of my favorite cozy series and it met all my expectations even if they were quite high.
Highly recommended!

It's the first book I read in this series but not the first one by Simon R. Green.
I read it in one setting and I couldn't put it down.
I don't know if the genre is sci-fi, horror or paranormal thriller, I think it kept me reading feeling the growing creepiness and claustrophobia.
I loved the humour in this book as much as I loved Ishmael and Penny.
The mystery was good and the ending came as a surprise.
I look forward to reading other books in this series.
Highly recommended!

I loved how fiction was used to explained concept like design thinking and agile strategy that are usual a bit too cloudy.
It was a fascinating and instructive read, it would be great if any book about methodology was as entertaing as this one.
The guide at the end of the book is really useful.
I look forward to reading other books by this author.
Highly recommended!

This book was amazing! It was the first book I read in this series and it was a great discovery.
I'm a fan of urban fantasy and I can say this is one of the best books I read this year.
It's enthralling and entertaining, once you start reading you cannot put it down.
The characters are well written and you cannot help rooting for them.
The plot was great, atmospheric and enthralling and you want more with each page you turn.
I look forward to reading the next instalment in this series.
Highly recommended!
