クッキング・ママの遺言書

First I really like the character "Goldy", because I have been through physical and mental abuse, and could relate to what Goldy was going through. Diane Mott Davidson does write a good story. What I don't like, Diane began adding "Explicatives" or not so nice "potty" words. This bothers me as a reader. My personal opinion, no one needs to read the Lord's name in vain, which a character says to show startlement or anger. Until recently I did my best to overlook these words. I have begun reading other authors that don't use that type of communication. Their stories are well written and very enjoyable because I don't have to "re-write" the bad language as I read.

Was happy to find this book on sale in a Kindle edition. Mysteries (cozies) are my way of relaxing and this was a quick, enjoyable way to wind down.

Nice light read, Always a cute story, but could skip several pages and not miss a thing. Recipies nice touch.

the story needed way too much back story which the authr supplied but stopped the story each time.

Not as well written as her past books.

Though I am glad that the Jerk is gone, something other than that character was missing from this book. The ending was perhaps abit rushed . Is the DMD bored with her characters?

Not one of my favorites. Goldy should be smarter than to let her son who doesn't know how to drive back down a drive. Tom sure spent a lot of time in the kitchen cooking instead of solving crimes. Just wasn't as much fun to read as some of her other books.

I've read many of her books. This one did not have the level plot or excitement the others did. A lot of characters running back and forth. A lot of detailed description of surroundings and clothes.

Now many times do we have to hear where the tomatoes come from? Can this woman stay in an upright position? She`s fallen and dropped moe food then she`s served. The business should be called Julian`s. He does more work then she does.

I asked for a paperback which I received but is a large size nd hard to handle. Cannot carry it in a purse to meetings.

I really liked the previous format where recipes are incorporated as part of the story.
As usual good recipes and a decent story.
