Enjoyable cozy mystery with a fun premise. The mystery was intriguing, and I liked the vintage cookbook element. However, I found some of the dialogue a bit clunky. Overall, a good read.

The book had a clever plot and engaging characters, but the pacing felt slow at times. It did, however, leave me wanting to know what happens next!

The vintage cookbook angle was fun! The mystery felt a bit underdeveloped, and I didn’t fully connect with Ricki. The New Orleans setting was a highlight, though. It was pretty good.
