“Reading through this cookbook has revived my interest in getting back in the kitchen.” Rhonda Gilliland, Author and Editor of the Cooked to Death Series
“Designed for busy cooks who may not be out solving crimes, but whose time is equally challenged.” Diane Donovan, Midwest Book Review
“Mysteries and cookbooks belong side by side on readers’ shelves. A Bad Hair Day Cookbook serves up both food and justice.” Christine A. Jackson, Ph.D., Author of Myth and Ritual in Women’s Detective Fiction

Review: Cozy mysteries and recipes seem to go hand in hand. I love when they also end up being a cookbook too.

I have a love of both, that I think I got from my mother.

There are loads of recipes that I have definitely earmarked to try once the holiday season of craziness has ended.

If you were a fan of Joanne Fluke's cookbook, this is definitely one to try.

I've actually put the hard copy of this book on my wishlist, because I love having physical copies of cookbooks. ('I'm lousy at using my ereader or phone for recipes.)

So if you are looking for a fun cookbook and meet the character's from a great cozy series. Give this book a try.
