Diane Mott Davidson writes culinary mysteries featuring caterer Goldy Schulz. The books always include recipes and before starting to read, I tend to look at the recipes and think, "that looks good but hard to make." By the end of the book, I always convince myself to copy at least one or two of the recipes because they sound so darned good when described in the book.
This is not great literary fiction. I always get a bit frustrated while reading this series because I think no way would life happen that way. If as many people died around me, as died around Goldy Schulz I would be looking for a new line of work, or I would be in jail.
But notice I said I always . . . when I read this series. I complain, but I keep reading them when they come out. They are a decent escape and sometimes that's good enough.
