First in the New York Times-bestselling mystery series: “A cleverly plotted cozy full of appealing characters and delicious cookie recipes.”—Publishers Weekly Take one amateur sleuth. Mix in some eccentric Minnesota locals. Add a generous dollop of crackling suspense, and you’ve got the recipe for this mystery series featuring Hannah Swensen, the red-haired, cookie-baking heroine whose … cookie-baking heroine whose gingersnaps are almost as tart as her comments and whose penchant for solving crime is definitely stirring things up.
While dodging her mother’s attempts to marry her off, Hannah runs The Cookie Jar, Lake Eden’s most popular bakery. But after Ron LaSalle, the beloved deliveryman from the Cozy Cow Dairy, is found murdered behind her bakery—with Hannah’s famous Chocolate Chip Crunchies scattered around him—she’s determined not to let her cookies get a bad reputation, so she sets out to track down a killer. But if she doesn’t watch her back, Hannah’s sweet life may get burned to a crisp.
“Culinary cozies don’t get any tastier than this winning series.”—Library Journal

Love this series!!!! Highly recommend it to anyone who likes cozy mysteries.
Wonderfully written. Entertaining and enjoyable.
I enjoyed the mystery, but the recipes are to die for. (Pun intended.)
I love this series. Great characters and loving relationships.
Thoroughly enjoyed book 1. Now on to book 2.
Funny. Main character is always getting herself into trouble. Needing the sexy detective to get her out. Great read.
A fun read.
Lots of repetition in each book
It hooked me enough to read the whole series. Loved them all. Can’t waif for the next one
Fantastic new series… and now they have a TV series with Alison Sweeney. Nice! It was one of the first cozies I read with recipes and I had to test one or two out. 🙂 More to come on this series… I’m anxious to finish all 20+ books!
I’m rereading Joanne fluke books and started with this one. I enjoy the characters and the story lines.
I have read almost all the books in this series. Wonderful reads!
Love to read Joanna Fluke books. Can’t get enough!
This is one of my favorite authors and have read most of her books. There are a few our library does not have so look for them for my kindle.
Read all her books and will continue
Another cosy mystery from Joanne Fluke. Reliable, well written, sympathetic characters.
Love these books.
Saw the TV show first so it brought the characters to life more.
One of a series of books all written about a cookie shop owner who has an inquisitive mind and will dwell on this until the murder is solved. Books usually have cookie recipes woven into the story and are available as part of the book.
I love all Joanne flukes books
