Criminal Confections is a new to me series called the Chocolate Whisperer by Collette London. I was only moderately engaged by the book as I found the character a bit annoying. I will give the series another try before discontinuing with it. Sometimes series take a book or so to get going and engage me with the characters. The San Francisco setting is always a locale near to my heart as I lived there in HS through college years and spent time visiting the city with friends as I got older. I even lived in the city proper for a few months when I was an adult as my husband was temporarily assigned to his company's SF office. I always enjoy the views and tourist attractions as well as the different neighborhoods.
Criminal Confections by Colette London
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
A chocolate lovers dream book. If you want to know the ends and outs of chocolate and what makes them different you will really like this book. I admit I skimmed over some of those parts but still found it interesting.
The mystery was well developed and I really did not see the ending. Hayden is a bit of a flaky character and I’m not sure I’d like her in real life but it will be interesting to see her character and relationships develop over the series
