It is not often that I feel compelled to write a review, but I felt I needed to for this book. I listened to this on audio. The narrator was good. However, this book was so over the top with cliches. It seems like the author tried her hardest to find the most stereotyped characters possible, an Asian American as the main sleuth, an African-American "curvy" woman as her sidekick, a Hispanic man, and a Southern belle as part of the Chubby Chicks Club (yes, a man is part of this Chubby Chicks Club). In addition, there was profanity in this cozy, which I did not appreciate. The reason why I gave this cozy 2 stars was because there was absolutely no resolution to the mysterious death of the main character's father. This was the most interesting part of the book to me! Ugh. Thankfully, the audio as only 4.5 hours long. If it as any longer, I would have made it a DNF. Instead I sped up the narration to 1.5X so I could be done with it sooner. Do not waste your time reading this book. I thought I'd like it. The title was cute, the character's were members of the Chubby Chicks Club, so I thought they would be fun and quirky folks like people in Mary Kay Andrews' fun novels. I thought it would be fun because the setting is Savannah and I live near there.No on all accounts. The characters were "blah", the story line was juvenile and the only thing I can say is that it made a good book to read on the treadmill as I need something mindless to read there. Fit the bill!
Do You like book Dying For Dinner Rolls (2013)?
This was not a bad story. I enjoyed the book. But had it figured out early on.

I wanted to like this book but the characters were just too flat.
