MY BOOK BEGINNING


They say that time heals a broken heart. I've noticed that no one mentions exactly how much time it take, though. 

-- A Batter of Life and Death by Ellie Alexander.

This is the second book in Ellie's Bakeshop Mystery series that started last year with the delightful Meet Your Baker. Sweet treats and terrific mysteries are coming out of this Ashland, Oregon themed series!

  2. Hi, Gilion - Hope this coming week will settle down for you. I assume Ellie's Bakeshop Mystery series is a cozy series; at least it looks that way from the cover. :)
