If you like mysteries you have to read this book. I have this ability to always guess a twist. There are two times I can never guess though, one is the during the show Number 9, the other is The Housemaid. I thought a few times I knew what the twist was going to be and I was so wrong and continued to be surprised until the last page. I am heading out to my local independent book seller today to buy the other books in the series.

Do you enjoy lovely and charming illustrations of foods? Yes??!! Then please do not hesitate to buy this book. You will love the recipes and how they are presented and grouped together as well as the sweet illustrations and witty, text. I felt like I was chatting with these authors as I read the book. It is easy to cook from and so enjoyable to peruse. Take this out on your deck in the morning with your coffee or tea and leaf through for ideas for your summer weekend, you will be so happy!! Everyone with a love of summer foods should own this book.

The Picnic: Recipes and Inspiration from Basket to Blanket

So it is a great show in that the forensics are fascinating. The acting and casting are also very good. I have a HUGE issue though! I watched all the seasons before making this final judgment. The episodes end so abruptly that you are left feeling like you’ve skipped an episode. Each episode ends with the killer being found out-but the show offers zero closure. It will happen as a verbal- “that’s it we got him” then the episode just ends. No final arrest, no on tape confession in most cases, no court scene, no wrap up of additional details that you would kind of expect to have once the killer is caught. It just ends. So the show is great- until the last five minutes of every episode and you’re left feeling totally unsatisfied and in need of closure for these cases. Also the main character of Bailey is a tricky one to like, not because she’s flawed, but because of how little she takes her life and her bad choices seriously.
