I almost said "just friends," as if romantic partnership was superior to platonic friendship, but stopped myself. Adeena hated that term and idea. And I'd learned, time and again, she was right. There was no hierarchy to love.

I read this in under 24 hours and it was the most delightful cozy mystery. I cannot wait to read the rest of the series.

Well written cozy mystery! Liked the insights on the Filipino family and food.

Highly enjoyable. I recommend for lovers of cozy mystery. Looking forward to the sequel. I did find the first person perspective to be a little odd. But also I can't imagine it in 3rd. 🤷🏻‍♀️ ...more

2.5. Writing style just wasn’t for me. I read this for a book club, and was excited to try something new, but this just reinforced for me that fluffy reading isn’t my speed. Still glad I gave it a shot, though.

This was a fun cozy mystery! It was funny, and I fell in love with the characters. I already have a ship, and I don't think it's one the author intended lol I am looking forward to reading the next book. ...more

This was a fun read. And it made me hungry. LOL! I look forward to seeing how the characters develop in future installments of the series.
