    <body><![CDATA[Finally found book 1 in the series, which is where I usually like to start. Enjoyed this one; felt the dialogue was a strength, at times the long list of people who came and went were a disadvantage. Decent puzzler. A series I'll probably come back to every now and then when I need something quick a...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/19688202">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I read this book (the first in the Benni Harper series) shortly after reading Catering to Nobody (the first in the Goldy Bear series - culinary mysteries).  I liked this book so much better than Catering to Nobody!  I found the two books to be similar in construction which is why I'm comparing them ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/11122232">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This is the first of Earlene Fowler's series about Bennie Harper, widowed cowgirl/quilter/curater of the San Celina Folk Art Museum.  Bennie seems to be around when bodies are found and other unsavory activities occur.  Mystery and good clean romance.  You can read anything by Earlene Fowler and not...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/35489151">more...</a>]]></body>
