Pancakes and Corpses by Agatha Frost

After reading a book that was mildly depressing, it's good to read a cosy murder mystery. 😁

Pancakes and Corpses is a great title for this book and lets you know what is going to be in store for the reader.


The blurb says:
Soon to be divorced Julia South never expected to be caught up in solving a murder, until she discovered the body of her cafe's most awkward customer. With a new smug Detective Inspector in town who underestimates her every move, Julia makes it her mission to discover the real murderer, before her village friends are dragged into the frame, and more bodies are discovered.

This is a lovely little story, that introduces you to Peridale Cafe and all the characters in the village.  As cosy mysteries go, this one wasn't predictable which made the read all the more enjoyable.  It's a light read, so is accessible for bookworms like me (I read it in a day as I couldn't put it down) or for people who want to get back into reading and want a fun romp.

The sequel, Lemonade and Lies, is already on my wishlist.
