Resumen del Editor
A RUSA Award-winning novel!
The first book in a new culinary cozy series full of sharp humor and delectable dishes - one that might just be killer....
When Lila Macapagal moves back home to recover from a horrible breakup, her life seems to be following all the typical rom-com tropes. She's tasked with saving her Tita Rosie's failing restaurant, and she has to deal with a group of matchmaking aunties who shower her with love and judgment. But when a notoriously nasty food critic (who happens to be her ex-boyfriend) drops dead moments after a confrontation with Lila, her life quickly swerves from a Nora Ephron romp to an Agatha Christie case.
With the cops treating her like she's the one and only suspect, and the shady landlord looking to finally kick the Macapagal family out and resell the storefront, Lila's left with no choice but to conduct her own investigation. Armed with the nosy auntie network, her barista best bud, and her trusted Dachshund, Longanisa, Lila takes on this tasty, twisted case and soon finds her own neck on the chopping block….
Reseñas de la Crítica
One of CrimeReads' "Most Anticipated Crime Books of 2021"!
One of BookRiot's "Most Anticipated Books of 2021"!
One of Bustle's "Most Anticipated Books of Spring 2021"!
"Even though I tend to write dark, hardboiled stories in which people get hit in the face with tools, I love to read a well-written and quirky cozy mystery. Manansala has created just that with her debut novel, a tale full of eccentric characters, humorous situations and an oh-so-tricky mystery. Check this one out for the poetic prose and the mouth-watering recipes that are integral to the plot." (The Washington Post)
“This book hits the exact right spot.... Mia P. Manansala manages to create a murder mystery where nothing is too horrifying and you know everything will be okay in the end. And because of that, you just get to go along for the ride of trying to figure out what really happened when Lila Macapagal’s ex-boyfriend Derek drops dead in front of her at her family’s restaurant. I’ve heard it described as a 'cozy mystery' and that’s exactly what it is, a perfectly cozy puzzle to solve. Also, it will make you very hungry for Filipino food - and then it delivers with recipes in the back!” (Taylor Jenkins Reid, New York Times best-selling author of Malibu Rising
"This breeze-right-through-it mystery mystery follows baker Lila Macapagal as she investigates the murder of her ex-boyfriend, the town's too-mean food critic, after he dies over a meal in her aunt's flailing Filipino restaurant. Finding out whether or not Lila can solve the crime and save the restaurant is as satisfying as it is climactic with just the right amount of drama." (Bon Appetit)

With her trusty German Shephard RBG - Ruff Barker Ginsburg - by her side, what can go wrong? Okay, sure, bumping into her ex Scott or her former high-school nemesis Tricia is a drag. It certainly doesn't help that they’ve acquired the new hobby of shoving their recent engagement in her face every chance they get. But that doesn't mean Quinn wanted to find Tricia dead in the road. So why does half the town think she may have done it?

Historia
Well, I’m supposed to be evil thanks to both nature and nurture, but I fight it with every fiber of my being. I just want to live a normal life. I even joined the FBI instead of the Federal Bureau of Magic, until my powers reared their ugly head and the agency sent me packing back to my hometown to fight magical crimes instead. Now I’m back in Chipping Cheddar, living with my evil family, with a new job and all my old baggage. Oh, and there’s a dead body, which was definitely not an accident.

Lana’s love life soon becomes yesterday’s news once the restaurant’s property manager, Mr. Feng, turns up dead - after a delivery of shrimp dumplings from Ho-Lee. But how could this have happened when everyone on staff knew about Mr. Feng’s severe, life-threatening shellfish allergy?

Mimi Lee hoped to give Los Angeles animal lovers something to talk about with her pet grooming shop, Hollywoof. She never imagined that the first cat she said hello to would talk back, or be quite so, well, catty - especially about those disastrous dates Mimi’s mother keeps setting up. When Marshmallow exposes local breeder Russ Nolan for mistreating Chihuahuas, Mimi steals some of her cat’s attitude to tell Russ off. The next day, the police show up at Hollywoof. Russ has been found dead, and Mimi’s shouting match with him has secured her top billing as the main suspect.

perfect cozy mystery for an autumn day
4.5 stars on the story, super strong start to a series. protagonist isn't the smartest person in the room and that's a refreshing change of pace. she also isn't the bimbo of an evanovich novel. she's spicy and sweet, knows what she'll do to uncover the mystery to protect her family. this book makes you super hungry though. solid first entry to a cozy series. no groundbreaking twist. if you're a sleuth, you'll know who did it, but it's still fun to watch her get there.

A Whodunnit with a Filipino Twist
If you’re in the mood for a mystery with a tinge of Filipino tsismis, humor and native fare, then this book is for you. It’s a fun and unique take on the cozy mystery genre, given even more depth by the wonderful portrayal of narrator, Danice Cabanela. Can’t wait for the next book in the series!

You don’t want to miss this one!
I loved this book! It was a great balance of plotand character development. The mix of small town murder, charming characters, and mouth watering foodie moments is just right. I'm a life long mystery lover, but I haven't really enjoyed the genre in recent years, (probablya me problem, lol) but I really got into this one. The first thing I did when i finished this book was to pre-order the next book in the series. I can't wait to see the next series of hijinks and shenanigans Lila and her friends and family get into! Also - I am definitely going to be trying the recipies in the back of the book! The excitement is real!

Oh My Gulay!
WARNING: Don't read this HUNGRY. The way Manansala describes Filipino dishes are mouth watering. It's about time we had some diversity in this genre! The narrator needed improvement in pronouncing certain things but other than that great listen. Can't wait for a sequel!

Omg YES!
I love murder mystery and love how this is based with a Filipino family! I can relate to the aunties, Lola, and everything else! I especially love how the author/ narrator introduces phrases and titles in Tagalog in the beginning for those who don’t know the language. This needs to happen more often! And the recipes at the end that are mentioned in the story line 🤌🏽 chefs kiss!

Loved this Book
I have to say I really enjoyed this book. It captured my interest from beginning to end. I really enjoyed learning a little bit about Filipino culture and I also liked the fact that Ms. Manansala had many different cultures and life styles represented in the book with well fleshed out characters.
I love Cozy Mysteries, but there are times I can guess the "bad guy" fairly early on but this mystery kept me guessing until almost the end and even then, I only knew who it was but not the reason or the how.
The only issue (very minor) is that the reveal and climax happened fairly quickly compared to the rest of the book. I am not saying this was terrible, I would not have wanted it to drag on either, but it felt a bit fast for me.
I am looking forward to listening to the next installment!

I heard the voices of my family
This was a great listen! I enjoyed each minute and the story had a surprising twist I didn’t expect until closer to the end! The narrator was amazing at imitating the Titas and the accents were on point. To the person who reviewed this audible complaining about how over the top the accents were and compared them to Jokoy skits needs to relax. My family literally sounds like this. What was the narrator supposed to do? Sound monotonous? The accents added to the emotion most of us second generation Fil-Ams are familiar with which drew me in more to the story. Had I read this book myself, I probably would have done the accents in my head myself. Great read! Can’t wait for Homicide and Halo Halo!!!

Arsenic and Adobo .. food family and murder.
Filipino food, family mixed in with murder and intrigue. This storyline was whimsical mixed in with humor and family obligations. A light read and kept me hooked until the end. I am anxious for her next book to come out!
