Something Cooking An Angie Amalfi Mystery Angie Amalfi Mysteries Joanne Pence Books Reviews

I'm not sure I've ever read a book with a main character who's such a drama queen and stupid to boot. Lots of ups and downs in this book and intrigue so I finished it and would so despite previous comments it was well written and okay.
Something's Cooking by Joanne Pence is the first in the Angie Amalfi mysteries. I would definitely consider this to be more of a cozy than a hard-boiled mystery, although honestly I personally would classify it more as romantic suspense, with romance being the primary genre and the suspense/mystery being secondary.

It started off really well and got me hooked quickly. Angelina Amalfi is the youngest daughter in a very wealthy and well-known family. One day she receives a package that turns out to be a bomb. The package was addressed simply to "occupant" so in the beginning she has no idea if it was even meant for her or if it was, who would have sent it or why. She then meets inspector Paavo Smith, who is assigned to investigate her case, as well as a murder case that happened in the same neighborhood on the same day.

Throughout the rest of the book, there are a bunch of twists and turns and the cases end up being linked. Also throughout the rest of the book, a romance develops between Angie and Paavo, and in my opinion, takes over the book a bit too much. Don't get me wrong, the writing was very good and the plot and characters were solid and relatable. I was pleasantly surprised that Angie was such an easy to relate to character, even though she was from a very privileged background.

However, I like a little romance with my mystery, not a little mystery with my romance. In a book that is categorized primarily in the mystery category, I expected more mystery and less romance. Now I personally don't really care for the romance genre, but I know a lot of people do. So I can see where people who really enjoy both mystery and romance genres would probably love this book. Alas, that's just not me. BUT that is a personal preference and like I said the writing was solid.
Very plased.
Entertaining characters, intriguing plot and just a good fun read. Look forward to reading more in this series to find out what other mysteries Angie gets into and to follow the romance line with her detective boyfriend.
I am rereading this whole series . I read them all when they were first released and loved them. I could hardly wait for the next one to come out ! I do recommend them to all who love a good mystery.
Angie is brave, entertaining a must read for cozy mystery lovers.
I read this book years ago, and a few others by this author. I am glad to discover them in e format. PaavloV is such an interesting person. I look forward to the next one.
The 'heroine' of this book is a self centered, spoiled, rich girl who ignores the advice of police officers when she is threatened. Bulldozing others aside when there is something she wants to do.
This was a book group read for me otherwise I would have put it aside after the first few chapters..
