Members Reviews:

Too many bones in the mulch!

This is the second Allies McMurphy fudge shop and McMurphy Hotel mystery? The setting of Mackinaw Island adds a lot to these mysteries along with the numerous scrumptious fudge recipes. In this book, the pup, Mal, finds some unwanted bones in mulch around the island, while Allie gets involved in a "scripted" cooking show so reminiscent of many shown on TV these days. The body count grows but the "why" and "who" is difficult to figure out, Allie keeps charging forth with her little pup, Mal, as her defender.

This is a fun series. I love the descriptions of Island events, Mal's antics, and Allie's two suitors. The mystery was interesting but difficult to actually figure out by following the story. Not as good as book one, but definitely good enough to anticipate reading further in this series! I listened to the book on audio and enjoyed the narration.

Who knew Fudge could be so interesting

What made the experience of listening to To Fudge or Not to Fudge the most enjoyable?

Well in the second book it was nice to see how Mel was contributing to finding all the body parts. I won't spoil it for anyone but I just love that little dog. Also I love see how she work with both love interest this time. I also love how Jenn got involved also. Her Mother brought more to the story as well I do hope we get to learn more about her parents in the future. The killer oh wow didn't see that one coming at all so it was nice to get stumped till the end.

What does Vanessa Johansson bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book?

Did a great job.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

When her mother broke down and shared with her about her dad and her feelings about the island and it people on there. I think it was a growing experience for them both. Also when both men kissed her. It's nice to see that even the plan girl can get attention.

Any additional comments?

I really enjoy the last 2 books and look forward to seeing more. I think it would be great to see her go through a winter on the island and I look forward to seeing were that goes.

good but could be better

What did you love best about To Fudge or Not to Fudge?

The story line it self was good it's has to many recipes. It would be getting good then

bang a recipe would came up, it was like a commercial, very annoying. Now a recipe at. the beginning, middle and end. Would be ok.

What about Vanessa Johanssons performance did you like?

Yes she is very.
