JORY || Simmer Down by Jessica Conant-Park & Susan Conant
Tuesday, April 15, 2008 // 12:10 AM
A show of hands, how many of you like Chick Lit books? Uh-huh, I see. How about mysteries? Very good. And now, how many of you love delicious food? Great! Then this book is perfect for you!

Although, to me, the book started off slow (most books do for me anyways... could be because I have a hard time focusing...) it started to pick up, fast! And it was a great easy feel-good read, that I really enjoyed. I say, it’s perfect for the girly-girl type who want a rainy day read, as I read it on a rainy day.

The book follows none other than Gourmet Girl, Chloe Carter and her boyfriend, Josh Driscoll. Josh is preparing to open his soon-to-be hot restaurant, Simmer, and at fund-raiser that samples some of Josh’s tasty dishes, a trendy club owner Oliver, gets murdered. Weapon of choice? Josh’s state-of-the-art, professional-grade food processor named Robocoupe (Yes, it has a name!).

Everyone's a suspect, but only one person did the crime. Can Chloe use her brains to figure out who did it?
Read the book today to find out!

Overall, like I said the book was a good, feel-good read. And I enjoyed it.
