[.ca] Sneaky Pie's Cookbook for Mystery Lovers (ISBN 055310635X)

bad karma:
Brown has got to be kidding on this one. Who in their right mind is going to take this seriously?

This book shouldn't be called a cookbook:
What a waste of a cookbook. If you want a great cookbook look at Lilian Jackson Braun's coookbook. I got Sneaky Pie's cookbook from the library and I am thankful I didn't waste the money on it. Most of the recipes were for food for pets. I guess Rita Mae Brown was trying to compete with Lilian Jackson Braun. If you are going to buy one cookbook from a mystery write buy Miss Braun's. Sneaky Pie needs to take this book and bury it in the litterbox

This alley cat needs her distemper shot.:
I have read this "cookbook" courtesy of the local library. The book is over rate and overly priced. Since Miranda Hogendobler is the resident cook in this series one would think this volume would inundate us with the recipes for all the goodies she provides Harry and the others. But it doesn't. What a rip-off. Since this "cookbook" claims to follow the 7th volume in the Murphy "lexicon" perhaps it is at best premature. Rita should have waited until after she had 15 or 20 Murphy mysteries under her belt before providing her fans with such nonsense. And exactly who does Rita think she is kidding by having the book printed in hard to read blue ink?

My favorite Easter present:
I received this book as an Easter present from my 3 little cherubs, Errol, Lucy and Troi. Errol and Lucy are cats who were rescued from the same animal shelter when they were babies. Troi was a gift from my father. She's a Shetland Sheepdog. They, and I, feel that this is a wonderful cookbook and story. I've tried many of the recipes and have found each one of them to be delicious and easy to prepare. I've prepared some of the recipes and shared them at family functions. My family and friends love the recipes. It's nice to find a cookbook that includes recipes appropriate for my 3 little ones. I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves animals and loves to cook.

Great book for non-cooks!:
I hate to cook. That said, I loved making the recipes in this book not only for myself but for the critters whom I serve as household help. The recipes are easy, non-time consuming, and my mother nearly fainted when I told her I made them all by myself. The anecdotes are wonderful, especially the goat story.
