About PERFECTLY PICKLED:
If You Love Stephanie Plum, Wait Until You Meet Mina Kitchen!!!
By N. N. Light on April 16, 2015
Format: Kindle Edition
This is my first book by Lizz Lund and let me tell you, it won’t be my last! Filled with quirky characters, hysterical dialogue and a main character who always seems to be surrounded by hijinx, Perfectly Pickled is one of the best cozy mysteries I have read since Janet Evonovich’s Stephanie Plum series.
Mina Kitchen (yes that is her real name) is a wannabe chef trying to pay the bills before her cat, Vinnie, has no choice but to go on strike. She’s a typical single gal with insecurities and a penchant to cook when under stress. Not to mention the stack of bodies who seem to keel off whenever she is around.
In an effort to pay her rent, she takes a job as a secretary at a… wait for it … mortuary. Groans Mina is creeped out to the max but needs the money. She even puts up with freaky Sheldon, who has a total crush on her.
Mina is surrounded by a large cast of wacky friends and a handsome chef giving her mixed signals. The on-again off-again romance between her and Chef Jack is sweet and made me smile.
All in all, Perfectly Pickled is perfectly delightful. It was a quick read and Lizz Lund has a rare gift for comedy. The one-liners are sprinkled throughout the dialogue and there were many times when I would laugh out loud. Who knew that there was such a thing as mortuary humor? If you like cozy mysteries and/or looking for a funny story, you have to pick up this book!
The recipes are scrumptious and so is the lavender cosmo.
Favorite Character: Mina. I could relate to her more than I would like to admit. She is one of the most loveable characters I have met and I love how things just seem to happen to her. How does she cope? She cooks up enough for an army and it is all worthy of a Michelin star.
Favorite Line: “My feet tingled and I smelled cookies.” ~Mina
