2013 book 72

Kerry Greenwood's Earthly Delights
Now that I've finished all the Phryne Fisher mysteries (at least until a new one comes out), I decided to try one of Greenwood's other series, even though OBVIOUSLY it wouldn't be as awesome. Except that it's about a baker, living in a Roman-themed apartment building full of wonderful and eccentric characters, so of course I loved it. There are a few mystery-type things going on--young junkies ODing from a bad batch of heroin, someone threatening all the women in the apartment building, and a missing girl. Some of these things wrap up better than others (one was a little too easy to figure out, despite a couple of red herrings), but a hot Jewish love interest makes up for a lot. As do muffin recipe. B+.
