This book was easy to follow and intriguing to say the least. I was excited about the murder mystery itself but the further you read, the more you get caught up in the lives of the characters, how the business is going and Snowflake Valley itself. This is not only a cozy mystery but very entertaining and fun!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Muffin Shop Murder by Holly Tierney is the first in her new Delilah Crumbworthy Mystery Series. It follows baker Delilah as she opens a bakery in Snowflake Valley, Idaho. Within the first few pages we are introduced to Delilahs’ down-to-earth, bubbly personality. Soon after the intrigue begins as mysterious letters, late-night visitors, and odd occurrences begin. The story is a nice and light read, however, I had imagined a murder mystery when I picked it up so I was surprised when there was no murder in the first few chapters. That being said, it is a good mystery with some interesting twists.

This was a cute story, not the best ever, but good enough! It was a quick read with a good ending. I did enjoy the characters – they were fun. I wish that the book had totally drawn me in – it almost did, but just not quite. Delilah drove me bonkers! Even thought it isn’t a 4 star read for me, it might be for you.

This was a nice story and a quick read. I thought the ending of the story was good but found myself a little disengaged throughout the book. I did not care for some of the characters in the story but that is just my personal preference. I did love the dog though. Anytime animals are infused in the story adds something for sure. Delilah was ok for me.

This is a quick and enjoyable mystery story that is also quite light hearted and fun. It was an easy book to get into and is the kind of book that you read in one sitting. It was great to get caught up I the story the author was telling and the characters on the page. I wanted to see how things would place out and if the main character would figure it out.
This is a relatively new author to me but so far I can definitely say I am a fan of her work. This book was thoroughly enjoyable and clearly the start of what will be a fun new series.

Delilah moved to Snowflake Valley for a fresh start. She buys a bakery that went out of business a few months ago after rumors of the previous owners supplementing their products with sawdust, and then of course there is the rumors of ghosts after the death of the girlfriend of one of their employees in their bakery. When Delilah first moves in, she sets to getting things ready and open, and thinks she’s lucked into the perfect situation, until weird things begin to happen in her bakery and at her new home. With twists and turns that will keep you guessing. This book is told from several different perspectives, and the links aren’t always clear until nearly the end of the book, but the reveal is worth the wait. If you enjoy mysteries, who-dun-it’s and surprises, this is a good book for you.

This was an enjoyable and engaging cozy mystery drama which had me hooked from page one. The small town feel of Snowflake Valley, the setting of this novel, was brought vividly to life by the descriptive narrative, along with the quirky and intriguing characters who live there. The McArdles own the best bakery in town, but then rumours start that to save money they have been cutting corners. A tragic accident at the bakery seals their fate and the bakery has to close. The quaint old bakeshop doors are not closed for long as Delilah Crumbworthy takes over the bakery. As soon as she starts work she’s swamped by customers, new friends and some menacing happenings. It’s not long until along with running her new business on Main Street, and trying to make friends, that she’s having to solve a mystery or two. This is an entertaining read, and I fell in love with the main character, Delilah and am pleased that this is the first book in a new series. The storyline kept me happily turning the pages and the mystery element definitely kept me guessing.

Join Delilah “Mitzy” Crumbworthy as she moves to Snowflake Valley to start a new adventure opening a bakery shop, specifically muffins.  Delilah is overwhelmed with opening her store, meeting all the townsfolk, and discovering secrets buried deep within the town.  I really enjoyed the characters and getting to know them on a personal level along with Delilah. I was especially drawn to Elinor. The story pulls you right in and each chapter keeps you reading well past your bedtime.

I adored this book. I have read many steamy books lately, and this was the perfect palette cleanser I didn’t know I needed. This was my first book to read by the authors and when I finished I immediately went and looked for more. It is a small-town mystery with a strong female lead, gossipy old ladies, and what turns out to be good friends. Definitely recommend this one to others.

Delilah has recently moved to Snowflake Valley and she’s opening up a muffin shop. As she’s getting to know the community, she meets some very interesting people who become friends to her. Those friends are starting to share some of the recent happenings around Snowflake Valley, including a recent murder at the shop that she’s wanting to open.

Once Delilah gets opened up, she’s running from open to close. There isn’t much downtime at all and Delilah needs to hire some help. Once she starts that process, things start become more eerie. Can she keep this shop open and her sanity intact?

This was an enjoyable little mystery that I read in just a few short hours in one setting. There were a couple of times that I wanted to smack Delilah for the choices that she made but the ending made up for it all.

If you are like me and love a detailed story then this book of for you. The author doesn’t skip over even the smallest of details making the picture form that much more clearly.

I felt the both the storyline and the characters were very well developed and complementary toward each other. While this was a fairly quick read I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed it.

The Muffin Shop Murder is a cozy mystery with plenty of intrigue, mystery, suspense, drama, and more. Holly’s writing is highly descriptive and full of details that makes it easy for us as readers to picture and engage in the story. It is a short read but the story pace flows smoothly.
Holly Tierney brings us a refreshing new series that is as witty and charming as it is fun. The story takes place in a small town Snowflake Valley. It is an interesting little place where you find it has some quirky if not eccentric residents. It is that quirkiness Holly instils in her writing that makes her stories stand out. There is a cast of many and some have their stories. Some stand out more than others but each one is unique.
Delilah as come to a new town to make a go of a new business adventure. She finds odd things happening and is not sure what to make of it. However, unbeknownst to her she is about to become embroiled in to solving the mystery of a murder.
I really enjoyed the book and recommend you all put it on your TBR list.
