There's a body in the bookshop in this latest novel from the New York Times bestselling author of the Magical Bakery mysteries... When the bookshop next to the Honeybee Bakery hosts a signing for a Savannah radio celebrity's new self-help book, magical baker Katie Lightfoot is happy to provide some delectable desserts. A big crowd has turned out for the event, curious about the book (and maybe to sample some goodies), but the final chapter comes too soon for the author when she is found dead at the event. The prime suspect is Angie Kissel, a former witch whose familiar was once Katie's own terrier, Mungo. Katie is at first hesitant to help, afraid of losing the little dog who has become so important to her. But after a little nudge from Mungo himself, Katie decides to try to conjure up the real killer?before Angie gets served... RECIPES INCLUDED! From the Paperback edition.

I love this series, and this book didn't disappoint!
You don't need to have read the previous books–in fact, it had been a while since I read the last one, and I had to remember a lot of details. It's still worth it to read the previous ones, though, if you get the chance. ;)
The drama is pretty high in this one, especially on the relationship front, but–slight spoiler!!–it turns out well. The Thanksgiving theme is quite fun, and the mystery itself started out ever-so-slightly frustrating–I caught on to one large red herring that seemed forgotten–but turned out twisty and satisfactory. I'm looking forward to the next book!

I didn't understand her decision in the end, she said that not everyone would be happy about her decision, so I thought she would say no, but she aceppted ????? Why?
