In A. L. Herbert's latest Mahalia Watkins Soul Food
Mysteries, MURDER WITH
MACARONI AND CHEESE you will be served up delicious recipes
and a brilliant
mystery! As a lover of cozy mysteries, I found this one to
be down to earth, with
such lively characters! I can almost picture Herbert's
characters in my own
memory of my school days as she described each one. From
Raynell, who was
the meanest of all popular girls, to Gregory, the not
special turned into Mr.
Scrumptious that every woman is falling for!
Halia and her Mahalia Sweet Tea restaurant is asked to host
the high school
reunion at the last minute by Raynell Rollins, the popular
girl that everyone
disliked because of her mean ways in high school. In her
condescending way, she gets Halia to help organize when all
Halia wanted to do is not get involved. However, Halia gets
involved more
than she expected when a dead body turns up. The day after
the reunion,
Raynell is found dead and there is a whole list of people
that would love to get
revenge. Will Halia and her cousin Wavonne be able to find
out who did it before
it is too late?
This is one of my favorite cozy mysteries of the year! The
characters
had me laughing and smiling throughout the pages. Herbert
has an appetizing
series here with mysteries that have a twist at the end and
dynamic characters.
MURDER WITH MACARONI AND CHEESE by A. L. Herbert is the
first book I've read in
this series. It can be read alone, but you will want to go
back and get
the first in the series.
