Cream Puff Murder by Joanne Fluke

One of my guilty reading pleasures is the cozy mystery genre.  These quick uncomplicated mysteries often have some nexus to a hobby (I like the ones with recipes, but I've read others including scrapbooking and gourd carving of all things) and follow a general format: a non-detective ends up finding a body and getting involved in a mystery, often to absolve another innocent character, and does so with the help of a friend who actually is a detective.

This one was particularly light on the investigation, but is light fluff and a quick read for hot summer nights when there isn't much going on.  I'll keep reading as long as they keep putting out the series, but these are not must-reads unless the idea is interesting to you.
