Oh how I adored this book. The idea of Ricky’s shop full of vintage cookbooks and cookware is somewhere I would immediately visit and the whole New Orleans setting was incredibly cozy and welcoming. I really want to visit Bon Vee - these are the type of fun historical places that I love to visit. It seems like my NOLA trip might be coming sooner than I anticipated.

The mystery, the characters and the twists were fantastically plotted. There were so many different things going on, but it was easy to follow along all the drama. I am proud of Ricky for not only trying to succeed with her new business, but also to look out for neighbors and put in effort to deal with less charitable colleagues. She is level headed, smart, savy, and someone I can't wait to follow for more sleuthing. I need to know more about Ricky's past. I already cannot wait to return to Bon Vee!
