entertaining and have enjoyed each book in the series that I've read so far . Its a fun, quick read, and fans of her other series won't be disappointed at all when they start reading this one

Number eight in the “A Pancake House Mystery” series, A Wrinkle in Thyme is a fun, entertaining, and delightful cozy. I adore the Flip Side pancake house. Marley is a strong, independent, and somewhat nosy main character that never ceases to give readers more than a few moments of unease when she starts investigating a murder. Wildwood Coves museum has been given a new life in a renovated victorian, but this is not without controversy. When the museum’s temporary manager is killed, and some antique letters disappear, Marley jumps in to uncover the motive and the killer and discovers some remarkable history along the way.

Characters in this series have always been enjoyable. Readers can easily empathize with one or more, and new readers will find a character that will have them smiling at every mention. The suspects this time around are a new group to Marley and company, and they are also new to the Flip Side. Typically, new customers at the pancake house would make everyone happy, but this time, no one is sure if it’s good or bad. Evidence points in several directions, and some very good red herrings keep readers guessing to the end. Catching the killer leads to action and danger for Marley and friends and almost costs more than one their lives. Marley uncovers not only a killer but a bit of history that no one knew about previously.

A Wrinkle in Thyme will have the reader’s stomach growling with the thought of those delicious meals at the Flip Side. The recipes in the back of the book are yummy, and anyone who likes to try new food will want to create these delights at least once. There is enough action to keep readers happy, resolutions that are unquestionable, and a future for Marley that will elate readers. There is a need in our world today for a few hours of contentment, and this book, as well as the entire series, will give them this and so much more.

This is the 8th Pancake House Mystery. It could be read as a stand-alone, but I recommend reading the series in order as you’ll gain so much more depth to the story and insight into the main characters that appear in each book. Those characters are Marley, Brett, Leigh, Ivan, Sienna, Tommy and Lisa. There are a few others but these seven have roles in nearly every book.
Marley and Brett are married and I love how Marley has grown and her priorities have steadied over the course of the series.
I love how this mystery played out - the historical museum, Wild West days, letters from the past that tie into Wildwood Cove’s history, a hit and run, a murder, and how the author makes a classic motive for murder seem new.
I enjoy each visit to Wildwood Cove and I’m happy to recommend A Wrinkle in Thyme. The writing was good and I wanted to see what would happen next. I really enjoy the every day life parts of this book. They added to the mystery bringing this tale into my top 10 cozy mysteries so far for 2021.

A clever and charming cozy mystery. Yummy food at the pancake house causes cravings. Nice group of characters with, of course, a few dastardly ones tossed in for flavor. A pleasant series.

Love how the lives of the characters evolve in every instalment.
This one is centred around the new installation of the town’s museum. Would some documents resurfacing will lead to murder?
The plot is filled with possible suspects and clues to help the reader guess who it was.

A wrinkle in thyme is a book that is part of a series and I regret not having had to read the previous books. A huge thanks to Kensington Publishing for my e-ARC in exchange for an honest review.

A Wrinkle in Thyme (amazing wordplay by the author) follows newlyweds Marley and Brett who decide to help Wildwood Cove in its first-ever Wild West Days festival. The festival is without mayhem when its temporary local history museum director is found dead and some letters go missing. It's up to the Flip Side pancake house owner to figure out who is behind these events. This is a delightful cozy that I highly recommend and it's okay to start craving pancakes too.

A fun cozy mystery you’ll enjoy especially if you love a good cozy mystery series. I had a hard time putting it down and read it quickly. The storyline is enjoyable and leaves you satisfied.

This is such an enjoyable mystery series! I'm always happy to return to Wildwood Cove to see what Marley, Brett and the rest of the townspeople are up to, and this 8th installment didn't disappoint. The mystery was unique and kept me guessing until the end, and the supporting characters are interesting and fun to read about. I'm looking forward to continuing with the next book! Thanks to Netgalley and Kensington Books for the advance digital copy.

In addition to managing The Flip Side, her pancake house restaurant, Marely Collins is also helping Jane Fassbender move the Wildwood Cove Museum into its new location. Checking in with Jane, the two examine some old letters donated by a resident and discover they could be valuable since a local celebrity had written them. But, much to Marley’s chagrin, Jane locks the letters in her desk without reading them since she has a meeting.

The following day proves to be challenging for Marely when she arrives at the Flipside and finds Tommy, assistant to head chef Ivan, missing. When there is no response to phone calls and texts, Marely goes to Tommy’s house, and his roommates report he’s not there. When Marely begins searching for Tommy, she encounters emergency vehicles with flashing lights parked in front of the museum.
The deputy tells her it is not Tommy, and when she sees Mrs. Woodcombe leaving the museum, she learns that Jane is dead.

While somewhat distracted, she keeps searching for Tommy and finds a crumpled form in a ditch just off the road. An ambulance transports Tommy, a hit and run victim, to the hospital with a broken leg and several cracked ribs.

The two incidents, murder and hit-and-run, keep Marely guessing as she figures out what’s going on. Mrs. Woodcombe discovered Jane’s body when she went to meet with Jane to inspect the letters Jane and Marely uncovered. However, a search of the museum found no sign of the letters.

Sarah Fox’s clever mystery uses red herrings, twists, and a rapid pace to hold readers’ attention throughout the story. At the same time, Ms. Fox continues to develop the community of characters that make visiting Wildwood Cove such an engaging and entertaining adventure.

I was absolutely thrilled to have book number eight in the series to read. I am guaranteed a great read from this series, I am never disappointed!

There are so many things I like about it, including the strong female lead character Marley, the small town setting and the inhabitants.

As always, 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-Collins, owner of the Flip Side pancake house in the charming beach town of Wildwood Cove, is back with another adventure. Marley is part of a great circle of friends and she's very involved in her community, Her down-to-earth kindness and friendliness makes her a likable sleuth, even if her motivation is just curiosity.

In this case, Marley is helping out the local historical museum, which has a multi-generational palette of volunteers whose lives may seem simple on the surface, but who all have surprising secrets that come out when an unpopular member of the community is found dead at the museum. With the town's first Wild West Days adding to the excitement, Marley is still determined to figure out all the secrets -- criminal or not.

The pancake house is the center of the action, and the book includes recipes. I tried the Orange Raspberry Pancakes, and they are delicious.

I look forward to getting to know all the characters, including Wildwood Cover itself, better in future books. This is the second that I've read in this series, and the characters become more real and fully developed as the series goes along.

Really cute cozy mystery series. Likable, charceters,they make you want to continue reading.
Can’t wait to read the rest of the series

ALWAYS a fun cozy read. I thoroughly enjoyed the plotline with old love letters and the murders finding them caused. Marley though. I don't know why I don't connect with her as much as I do the other cast of characters. Regardless, she's grown a lot so there's that! Absolutely worth picking up

Thank you Netgalley for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. All opinions expressed are mine and mine alone.

A satisfying cozy and a lovely way to pass a couple of hours out on the deck. All I needed was a plate of pancakes to make it even more enjoyable :>)

Review copy provided by the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

This culinary cozy mystery is about candy, old love letters written by a thief, and the secret that someone would murder to keep under wraps. The plot was artfully created and I couldn't stop reading. The ending was a surprise. Marley is a great character who investigates with the help of her husband, Brett. The police officers in this series are respected members of the community, and I like that they are shown that way. I hope there are more stories coming, this series is fantastic! I received an advanced reader's copy from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.

It seems like it has been awhile since the last book. This one was a great read though. The characters are realistic. The town seems like a nice place to live. The story line includes clues that could have had a number of different outcomes. This is a typical cozy mystery and a good afternoon read.

Excellent!! Settle down with a nice drink in your comfy reading nook because once you start reading this book you're not going to want to stop. Excellent paced mystery with great story line. This series is a favorite!!! Thanks #netgalley and #Keningston for the eARC in exchange for an honest review.

I enjoyed this book. It's got great characters and an interesting story. I was surprised by who the bad guy was. The food sounds wonderful. #AWrinkleinThyme #NetGalley

I've always enjoyed this series. I love the way the author writes bad guys and in this installments agree gives us a few! Who's in for it? One or all?

This is book 8 in the Pancake House Mystery series.

Newlyweds Marley & Brett are busy working their respective businesses and helping Wildwood Cove with its first ever Wild West Days festival. When the temporary local history museum director is found dead and a bundle of old letters goes missing, Marley can't resist investigating. There are other sub-plots involving beloved characters who live in this series. Each sub-plot is wrapped up and ready for new adventures in the next episode in this cozy series.

I am looking forward to the next Flip Side Pancake House mystery by Sarah Fox, and to trying these recipes!
