I’m a committed Joanne Fluke & Hannah Swensen fan. I love the cozy mystery and these novels just have such a calming and positive effect on me. I’m giving 3.5 stars to Apple Turnover Murder, the 13th in this series. It was good and hit all the right spots, but left room for growth and more complexity.

I enjoy reading this series of books. I feel it is helpful to start with the first book and continue reading through the series, although it is not completely required. I like the characters, and look forward to finding out what is in store for them. The books are easy reading and definitely “cozy” mysteries! They all contain delicious and …
