Now, this look very interesting. The connection between cake and murder - who ever thought of writing something like that. Will be waiting for your review on this! Seriously intriguing.

I like this meme even tho I don't do it. Random bits from a book never fail to intrigue me!

Aths said...

How the ****** did I miss this post yesterday? I was probably too tired from work when I visited *excuses excuses*. Neway, I have the same thoughts as Shy and Justine... usually mystery books are always lead by a police or investigator or FBI agent... but never a COOK!! Now there's a new twist, like a breath of fresh air in a congested genre! And oh yeah, I like cakes! Chocolate cakes!!!

And welcome to the F56 blog games Ju! You bet, I like doing this meme :)
