Blackberry Pie Murder by Joanne FlukeMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
5 Star Review. Hannah is back in her 17th book. This whole series a delightful read, it's fun, quirky, , light hearted, funny, enjoyable, and downright entertaining. If you've read something "heavy" and just want something that is lite reading, then this whole series is for you.
The characters have grown throughout the series and feel more like old friends than just characters in a book that would soon be forgotten after you close the book. The book is pretty fast paced and is a great page turner as you wonder what is going through Hannah’s mind and you can’t wait to see what she does, or what dessert she’s whipped up. I’ve tried several recipes from many of the books and they are easy to make, which is good for me since I can’t bake if my life depended on it!
Although Hannah has two guys interested in her at the same time, one might think this would be confusing but it really isn’t. Both Detective Mike and Dr. Norman are both very much a part of Hannah’s everyday life and it’s hard not to picture either of them in it. But this time, our amateur sleuth really needs these guys to help her solve the mystery of who attacked the man that Hannah accidently hit with her truck that finished him off, and caused her to get arrested for vehicular homicide.
While Hannah and her sisters, Andrea and Michelle are trying to keep their sanity trying to plan their mother, Delores’s wedding to Doc Knight, Hannah’s partner and friend Lisa, needs a ride from the mechanic’s shop where her car is being worked on. Hannah is more than happy to leave the wedding planning to go and pick her friend up. A storm brews in Lake Eden, and while Hannah and Lisa are traveling back to the Cookie Jar, the rain pours down making visibility difficult to see. A branch lands in the middle of the road and when Hannah tries to avoid it, she ends up hitting a man that no one in the town knows. Hannah is arrested which causes problems between her sister Andrea and her husband Sherriff Bill. Not only does it cause them problems, but it also causes problems between Bill and Mike. With the whole town behind proving Hannah’s innocents, Hannah does the two things she does best. She creates some delicious new recipes and sets out who the stranger is and why someone had fought with him to where he stumbled into her path.
