CLP Blog Tours Book Review: Still Life in Brunswick Stew by Larissa Reinhart

Larissa Reinhart is now on tour with CLP Blog Tours and Still Life in Brunswick Stew

still life in brunswick stewSummary:

Cherry Tucker’s in a stew. Art commissions dried up after her nemesis became president of the County Arts Council. Desperate and broke, Cherry and her friend, Eloise, spend a sultry summer weekend hawking their art at the Sidewinder Annual Brunswick Stew Cook-Off. When a bad case of food poisoning breaks out and Eloise dies, the police brush off her death as accidental. However, Cherry suspects someone spiked the stew and killed her friend. As Cherry calls on cook-off competitors, bitter rivals, and crooked judges, the police get steamed while the killer prepares to cook Cherry’s goose.

Review:

What a fun read! The only disappointment I had with this book is that I hadn’t yet read first one – not that hindered my experience – but I loved Cherry from the first page and know I now I need to get my hands on Portrait of a Dead Guy, the first in this series. This novel is fun, fast-paced, suspenseful, and just an all-around good time. Even though it is the second in a series, I never felt like I was missing information or was lacking anything, I just jumped right into Cherry’s life and had a blast. I enjoyed the bit of a cliff-hanger between her, Luke, and Todd, and would love to see who she ends up with, because I truly have no idea! I always enjoy a bit of mystery in my reads, and this one should land on your to-read list!

4.5 stars

    Thanks Samantha! My biggest worry in writing a series is if a later book can stand on its own without boring the readers who started at the beginning. It’s a challenge! So glad you like Still Life and Cherry. I love writing her series! And thanks for the wonderful blog tour. It’s been a great two weeks!
