Candy Cane Murder/Joanne Fluke: I was not impressed. The negative: Hannah mustn't eat the cheeseburger or the cookie or the... Of course she does eat it and more. Her weight complaints were annoying. At least this story actually revolved around a murder mystery. This includes 10 recipes.

The Dangers of Candy Canes/Laura Levine: REALLY BAD I couldn't get past the first few chapters. What happened to the murder mystery? Jaine Austin (what an insult) is constantly mentioning her elastic waist pants. Another lead character who focuses too much on her weight. She decides to join a big sister type of organization and is set up with a brat of kid. That was as much as I could take. This does not include recipes and it even refers to this fact and the author/main character of the first story.

Candy Canes of Christmas Past/Leslie Meier: This was the only good story in the book. I'll be looking for more by this author. The characters are well developed. The murder mystery is an integral part of the story and is resolved in an unusual way. This includes two recipes.
