Meet Your Baker

A really good little cozy mystery! Exactly what I expected, but also fun that it was set in Ashland. I found this one interesting because the main character's relationship status is very “It's complicated” right from the start but feels very realistic. I liked how the various conflicts set up the rest of the series. So often with these kinds of series the reader is told why the MC came to, or back to, their small town to start their business (which is the usual trope) at the the start. In this you get to see how and why the MC makes the decision to make the move permanent. I love to mother-daughter relationship too.

My very first cozy mystery and it was a nice 3.75 stars for me. The only reason why it's not a full 4 star is because it took me quite a bit to get invested in the characters. I really loved it towards the end and I didn't see the real solution to the mystery coming and that is great! Definitely will go on with the series.
