Fudging the Books

 Fudging the Books is the 4th book in the Cookbook Nook series by Daryl Wood Gerber.   These books are fun to read about because they combine cooking and reading in the underlining plots of the mysteries.   The shop that Bailey runs with her Grandmother sounds as though it would be an amazing place to visit in real life. Not so much the murders that she stumbles upon though.

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This book was an enjoyable read and is a great choice for readers who like cooking and cookbooks especially. This book has aspects that include insight into the publishing world as well as discussions about advertising. If either of those interest you they are an added bonus to a well constructed mystery. I did find some of the characters a bit annoying at times and a bit of a stereotype of women who chose bas men. The friendships between Jenna and Bailey are well written and demonstrate their history. All in all a fun installment in this series
