What readers are saying about this book
Summarized by Pango AI
PangoBooks readers are mostly enthusiastic about this cozy mystery, with many highlighting the unique inclusion of Filipino culture, family dynamics, and detailed food descriptions, which made them hungry and homesick. Reviewers appreciated the representation of Filipino American characters and the sense of authenticity brought by the author's own cultural background. While some found the mystery aspect predictable, they still enjoyed the charming and fun journey of the story. The book's mix of food and mystery, coupled with relatable characters and cultural insights, made it a delightful and compelling read for most. A few readers, however, felt that cozy mysteries involving food and recipes are not their cup of tea.
