My mom loved this series. I had purchased the first and hadn’t read it but my mom did and kept telling me about how much she enjoyed. It made me want to read the series. She was not wrong and it doesn’t disappoint. This is a great addition to it and I would recommend it to others!

'Yeast of Eden' is another spectacular offering in Sarah Fox's A Pancake House Mystery series. The characters are believable, and Marley is especially likable. The mystery was expertly written with twists that had me heading in all directions. There was a hint of humor and a lovely romance, all which combine to make a book I highly recommend. Do yourself a favor and get the entire series.

I received this ARC from NetGalley in return for an honest review.

I cannot express how much I adore this series without sounding redundant. This is one of my top favs!! Although set in the Pacific Northwest, it reminds me of one of my favorite vacation spots, Gatlinburg, TN. Gatlinburg is full of pancake house and is amazing.

In this installment of the Pancake House Mysteries, it's CHRISTMAS TIME!! Although it isn't really elaborated on, the decorating has begun and delicious holiday themed food is being served and OMG it sounds amazing. I will definitely be preparing the eggnog pancakes with the eggnog whipped cream. I digress. What I loved most about this book of the series is that there are 2 mysteries. Yes, you read that correctly, 2, with one of them being a historical mystery.

When the antagonist of the book, Wally the Waffle King, turns up dead in his kitchen, the suspect list is infinite. As a direct competitor with the Pancake House and a former, unliked resident of Wildwood Cove, Wally has many enemies, but when Lisa and Ivan become prime suspects, Marley puts on her sleuthing hat. Also, is there more to Lisa and Ivan than just being suspects?

In the attic of her home, she finds old journals and newspaper articles about missing girls, one of them being the sister-in-law of her late cousin Jimmy. She begins research on the girls and those involved and makes a shocking discovery.

This book has everything, mystery, romance, sadness, joy, and a few twists that will keep you guessing. I cannot wait to see what Ms. Fox has in store for us next time. Hopefully, we will have some wedding bells in the next book or two!!

Yeast Of Eden is a fun, fast paced addition to this series.
Marley is a fun loving character and her determination to find the truth makes her easy to like.
As owner of The Flip Side, the local pancake house, Marley may have a little competition when the Waffle King decides to open his own restaurant.
Unfortunately for the Waffle King, he isn't well liked and when he's found dead, Marley has to get involved, especially when her chef and her best friend become suspects.
The story is well written and is full of surprises. I enjoyed reading this addition to the series and would recommend this book to any fan of cozy mysteries.

I volunteered to read and review an ARC of this book provided by the publisher and NetGalley.

Book number four in the series is another winner!
I am never disappointed in this series. There are so many things I like about it, including the strong female lead character Marley, the small town setting and the inhabitants.
This latest offering has a strong plot, with a well written whodunit, which kept me guessing and engaged right until the reveal.
I highly recommend this book, and I look forward to reading the next in the series.

I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book.

Marley McKinney is getting ready for the winter holidays at her pancake house, The Flip Side. She finds a flyer stuck to her front window announcing the opening of a new waffle house by a resident who has a bad reputation, to say the least. Wally Fowler has come back to flaunt his wealth and put Marley out of business. But, somebody pushes Wally’s head into a vat of liquid nitrogen and kills him. When Marley’s friend and chef are suspected of the murder, she starts asking questions that may get her into trouble.
I loved this story and how Marley worked with not one mystery, but also figured out a mystery from the past. The plot was intense and I couldn’t figure out the culprit until the very end. I loved how Marley’s relationship with her boyfriend progressed. It was a great reprieve from the intense mystery. The townspeople were great characters and great red herrings. I have loved every book in this series and I can’t wait for the next one. I received an Advanced Reader Copy of this book from the publisher and am voluntarily reviewing it.

Love how the story develops through out this series. In this new installment, the author achieves a more fast paced plot and the addition of subplots and new characters makes it more appealing and engaging.
Our main character, Marley, is running the Pancake House at a small town with great costumer turn up. When an infamous old resident, decides to come back to town to show is new riches due to an inheritance, his main plan is to open a Waffle House that will be the main competitor to Marley's business.
There are a lot of people who would love to make him vanish from the town.
Just before the big opening, a murder occurs and suspects are pilling up. So Marley will put her sleuthing skills to find out the truth and clear the name of two of her friends.

Marley's pancake house will have new competition as Wally Fowler has come back to Wildwood cove to open a new Waffle House ,also Marley is looking into a cold case after finding a diary in a old trunk in her attic of one of the two missing woman who vanished long ago.
A very enjoyable read that kept you guessing until the end .
Marley and Brett romance coming along nicely, I wonder what will happen next .
Will definitely look out for the next book by Sarah Fox.

Marley's 4th adventure in Wildwood Cove at the Flip Side Pancake House comes complete with Christmas decorating ideas and recipes for candy can pancakes, gingerbread crepes, eggnog whipped cream, and eggnog French toast,

Marley finds herself investigating cold cases involving two missing women while trying to prove a present day case that Lisa & Ivan didn't murder the Waffle King, Wally Fowler.

Marley's relationship with Brett intensifies as Brett copes with his father's heart attack on their job site.

Plenty of suspects to keep the plots twisting.

I've read bits and pieces of this series and enjoyed what I have read. This new addition doesn't disappoint. Marley is such a fun character who is not overdone and you can really relate to with a credible and believable story.just like most of us in the real world. I really need to go back and read the rest of the series that I've missed, this one has convinced me to do just that.

This gal was as busy as I am! So I can really relate to her going here, there and beyond busy every day. I like that she doesn't seem so nosy as concerned for her friends. And I like that she is looking into family history too. She just has fingers in so many pies. The whole story felt more believable than so many books I have read. The the twist...did not see the guilty one at all. Great, entertaining story with a bit or romance along with the mystery.

This is a well written, engaging cozy mystery with interesting, intelligent characters, a plot with a surplus of intrigue and descriptions of delicious food sure to set your mouth watering. Marley is the owner of The Flip Side, a pancake restaurant in Wildwood Cove. Wally Fowler, a local who moved away and who was disliked by many, returns with plans to open a competing Waffle King restaurant featuring cooking with liquid nitrogen,which leaves Marley and her staff, including her chef Ivan, a bit unhappy. When Ivan finds Wally dead, looking like he was killed with the liquid nitrogen both he and Marley's friend Lisa, who are now an item, become suspects. Marley, knowing them to be innocent, investigates as she has in the past and finds the true culprit. With her boyfriend Brett's father undergoing heart surgery, and Marley's discovery of a family mystery involving the disappearance of a long long young woman, her life is busy and her story will keep you entertained from the first page to the very end. I wish The Flip Side was located near me, because the descriptions of the food served there are incredible!
