On the list of ways to die, drowning in maple syrup has got to be the worst…

Milly Pepper has two loves: solving murder cases, and her pet bunny, Waffle. But life in the small town, Star Lake, Iowa, involves only one of those things—Waffle. The rest of her time is dedicated to running the failing Starlight Café.

Still, Milly’s determined to make the café a success for the sake of her father’s legacy, even though it means setting aside her aspirations to take her detective’s test and solve cases in the big city.

But when she wakes up one morning and finds her neighbor dead in front of the waffle station, Milly has to choose: investigate the case or lose the café for good. With a not-so-well-meaning sheriff breathing down her neck, Milly’s got to watch her step.

I liked this story

I enjoyed this book 1 of a series. It is about a woman who was wanting to be a detective but her father passed away and she takes over his cafe in a small town in Iowa , her neighbor is stabbed in in cafe and she is accused by the whole town, she decides to investigate on her own to find the real killer and prove her incidents. This was a good mystery, I would recommend anyone to read this book .

... the most immersive breaking, unbelivable story

Generic story, unlikable characters, immersion-breaking plot, and the murder is accidentally one of the funniest things i've ever read/heard.

This is not cozy in the slightest; the cozy manifesto may have some conflicts with murder mysteries as a whole, but cozy requires a sense of safety, likeable characters, and for lack of a better and less pony-related term, friendships. And trust me, there is nothing more cozy then ponies.

This feels more like someone just chasing trends then trying to make something fully original. And I suspect the author needs to do a LOT more research into the cozy genre before they tackle this subject. also probably gets beta readers to help them figure out what immersion breaking moments exist.

The actual narration is pretty good though.
