Book Review of Christmas Caramel Murder (Hannah Swensen, Bk 20)

Christmas Caramel Murder (Hannah Swensen, Bk 20)
reviewed on + 84 more book reviews


If you need some inspiration for baking for the upcoming holiday season, this is the book for you! It has many recipes I'm planning on trying like Butterscotch Crunch Candy and maybe even the Chocolate Caramels (I have a candy thermometer but am afraid to try it). And it has a great story, too! The murder of a "loose" woman brings tension to small town Lake Eden, MN (it happens to be the state of my birth). Who wants a murder investigation when you should be baking cookies and getting out the decorations? Hannah, with help from a lot of people, including her father who has been dead for many years, discovers the truth and almost gets killed because of it. With a dash of "A Christmas Carol" thrown in, it's a great fun and fast read.
