Raspberry Danish Murder A Hannah Swensen Mystery Book 22 edition by Joanne Fluke Mystery Thriller Suspense eBooks

I always like these books, but it is embarrassing to have the author explain what the blinking light on an answering machine means. And the amount of coffee they drink must make them run in the bathroom every ten minutes! AND the volume of baked goods consumed is incredible—how can people eat three muffins for breakfast and then two cookie bars mid morning and then huge dinners and more dessert. Even the characters are amazed at how much they eat! Michelle and Hannah marvel that they are still hungry...
It’s a cute and charming series and I will still read it, but Hannah seems like a person from an earlier generation when she does things like look up a store in the phone book or call the Better Business Bureau—I’m thinking the author is even less techie than her main character. And the descriptions people hanging up their coats or doctoring their coffee are just tedious. Please finish up the interesting plot about Ross and skip the minutiae.

Raspberry Danish Murder A Hannah Swensen Mystery Book 22 edition by Joanne Fluke Mystery Thriller Suspense eBooks Reviews

I have been reading these books since the first one came out and really enjoyed the early ones. But I am sorry to say the series has gone down hill and this is the last one I will buy. It started getting boring when Hannah kept waffling between Mike and Norman. And then the plot line with Norman supposedly getting married. And Mike being a jerk who seemed to only use Hannah as his private chef. When Ross was brought in and they got married so quickly I was flabbergasted. Then Ross disappears! Really! Finally this new book which is a flimsy plot held together with too many recipes, descriptions of meals , baking, and constantly eating way too much. The murder itself served no purpose and when in the last few pages it's finally revealed what happened to Ross I was floored! It's been a long ride and parts of it were really good but I'm getting off the train. Hannah, thank you for some great recipes.
I adore Hannah & all things Lake Eden but this book seemed....off. And I hated the cliffhanger- plus the fact the next book is a “flashback” (prequel, whatever you want to call it) so we won’t get any more details for probably a year. Ugh. Seriously why bother letting Hannah fall in love & get married just to create a storyline where her husband disappears & her life is the same as it was before him? I liked Ross (yes I know I’m in the minority on this) and REALLY HOPE there is a reasonable, believable explanation for this crazy disappearance storyline.

On the plus side there are lots of yummy recipes & all the regular characters make an appearance.
I found this book long and drawn out. Most of the book seemed to be descriptions of the different meals Hannah and her sister cooked or ate, or about the bars they made for a holiday convention. The action related to the murder built so slowly, and in certain chapters was non-existent. The progress of finding the killer seemed to stop after the first few chapters of the book and not really pick up until the last 3 or 4 chapters. The ending was very bizarre. It did not leave me with that warm, cozy feeling I usually have after reading a Joanne Fluke mystery.
I’ve read and enjoyed this series since the beginning, so I’m truely saddened to say that I seem to have outgrown Hannah. Michelle helps out at the coffee shop - check. Andrea bakes whippersnappers - check. Moishe is behaving a little off - check. As I’ve read the past few stories I’ve felt that Hannah isn’t emotionally at the right age. This story pushes her back in emotional development and the full story line seems to be stuck. Hannah and the others are more emotionally developed in the earlier books. Are these being pushed out too fast? Or is the author just tired of writing or out of ideas? The writing was on the wall and it’s time for me to find another series and say goodbye to these characters.
This book is not a novel. It's a short story consumed with dialogue to support recipe insertions every few pages.

It's also contains filler paragraphs that serve no purpose other than to add pages. Why oh why do we need to read that Hannah has five voice messages, and then descriptions of five marketing junk messages. Pure fill.

The Ross story gets more ridiculous as it goes along. I enjoy these characters but it's time to end this series with some dignity.

I continue to purchase these books, after the price drops substantially, because after reading I pass them on to my sister, otherwise I'd pass.
I had so hoped that once Hannah made a decision on which guy was right for her we would leave all the other nonsense behind. Sadly, not only does Hannah Swensen live in a time warp (unless the books are intentionally set in the 1950's but the electronics would suggest otherwise) then she is just sad, weak and pathetic.Her reaction to her husband just taking off without a note IS NOT NORMAL! The way she babies her sister IS NOT NORMAL! The way she tries to be independent in one paragraph and clearly wanting to be a stupid and naive doting wife in the next is just gross. The way her mother reacts to her having dinner with a friend is absurd. The murder plot was not even really a second plot line to the story but a third plot line at most. This is likely my last Hannah Swensen book. The ridiculousness of these "women" is beyond the pale.
I’ve read all the books in this series, and this one was by far, the worst. Page after page of descriptions ad nauseam of everything the characters ate. And that’s all they do—eat and drink coffee. The real fiction here is that every character in the book isn’t diabetic and obese. The solution to the murder is strained to say the least. The capture was utterly ridiculous. Why the killer was even in the town was totally inexplicable. Nothing in this book was interesting, nothing was realistic, nothing was worth reading. More and more pages filled with recipes, fewer and fewer with plot. Excruciatingly boring details of Hannah’s every shower, her every meal, and her cat’s every meal. Her mother gets more preposterous in every volume. Save your money.
