I have always been a loyal and devoted fan of Goldy and her cast of close knit friends and relatives, but "Chopping Spree," was a book I had to stop reading after the first 75 pages. I found it lacking considerably from her other books. Arch turns into a demon of sorts, while his mother is trying to get hold of her caffeine/chocolate addiction and .....where is poor Tom? I expected him to ask for a divorce in this book, because he always seems there for Goldy, but she is never there for him in any way, except as people who share the same house. I found Marla ...who I had dearly loved in the other books,....to be an annoying snob,...not in character for her. Mott-Davidson focuses too much on her ex-husband in her books. I am beginning to think she might do with some psychiatric help that she should have gotten in the beginning. Enough is enough. The "Jerk" is in jail. Her relationship with her present husband Tom needs to be more fine tuned. Sometimes you forget she is even married, but then someone has to nurse her back to health when she gets hit in the head, etc. Poor Tom. I don't think I will read anymore of her books until I can see some positive reviews....more 5 stars. I just looked at the reviews on her latest book and they were worse than this one. Maybe there is a time a writer should stop for a while and step back and re-evaluate her story character. Diane??Read full review
Great product and just as described
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
Interesting Plots. Enjoyable but would be better if she didn't use scenery descriptions as filler. Some great recipes are also given in her books.
I started to read her a long time ago and I bought these books to complete the set I love how she writes and a good many of her recipe's It's fun to see how this recipe is going to fit in with the title I love mystery's but I hate book and guts so if your the same way pick up one of her books and read it YOU"LL LIKE IT
I have the whole series and was missing this one. Enjoyable book, fits well within the series. Fabulous recipies accompany the story.
