Great Food Mystery

I love these kind of books. Not only do you get a great mystery you also get some great recipes. The narrator is great with the voices for each character.

A little outdated

It seems a little outdated for how recently it was written. I did enjoy the murder mystery portion though.

Thoroughly enjoyed it from beginning to end

Would you consider the audio edition of Chocolate Chip Cookie Murder to be better than the print version?

Would not consider a print over audio but it is preferred for someone like me who does not have the patience to sit long to read a book.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Hannah is a great baker and chef but her mother is quite the character.

Have you listened to any of Suzanne Toren’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No, this is my first.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Hannah's untactful responses.

OK

I am on the second book of the three I downloaded from this series and I am finding it to be annoying at times. Parts are too unbelievable. The narrator makes the characters sound older than their ages. This is a big disappointment I really wanted to like this series.

I enjoyed this book

Any additional comments?

I'm giving this 5 stars because I really enjoyed this book. However, at the end of the book, Hanna had two possible "love interests". I enjoy romance in my mysteries, but something that I cannot stand are romantic triangles. Having the woman go back and forth trying to decide who she is serious about drives me crazy and detracts from the story for me. So, I went through the book descriptions for the remaining books and didn't get a clue as to whether this would continue. However, when I read through reviews, I saw a comment for book NINE that said they wished Hanna would make up her mind who she wants to marry. So even though I really enjoyed this book, and I would recommend it to others, I doubt I will purchase the additional books, simply because my personal taste is not for romantic triangles in cozy mysteries. However, I would stress that the story is well written (and well narrated) and I believe that those who don't care about that one aspect of the storyline would likely really enjoy this series.

Fun - Fun - Fun

Love this series! I love mysteries and baking. This series has both. Easy listening with a good narrator, you can't beat the Hannah Swensen series.

Chocolate chip cookie murder

Love this book will read more of her books it also a movie it good too!

fun recreational story

Fully enjoyed the book. held my interest without being too intense. Narrator was awesome.

Great book for light reading

I don't love the main character Hannah. But she's likeable enough and it was a good who-dunnit?

Didn’t love - not realistic

I didn’t feel like the cookie Baker could really be investigating in town. I just couldn’t buy into that story.
