Shaken, Not Purred

Loved it! Not at all what I expected. I thought it would be a fluffy cozy mystery from the title and cover. Lots of undercover intrigue. Some romance. Office interactions. Murder and drugs. Cat and dog. I look forward to reading the next one in this series. Bonus recipes all sound delicious.

8 stars. This book was so original and funny that I ended up by the first book in the series and then this book on Amazon. This will be a book series that I read more than once, and each time I will find something to laugh at or just enjoy. I love the characters in this book, The author did an amazing job describing and developing every character within this story. The idea of the chemist turned spy was very intriguing. Bree is an awesome character and I love her in this series, Thank you Net Galley and Kelle Z. Riley for allowing me to read this book and write a honest review.

I was a little conflicted when deciding to read Shaken, not Purred. I was interested based off of the books description, but the cover and book title seemed a bit cheesy. I have to say, I am so glad I decided to read it anyway. Bree was a great herione to follow. I loved that she was strong yet relatable in her uncertainties. I liked the relationships she had with the other characters. The hero was very interesting. I loved that the author maintained humor throughout the book, as well as the suspense. I appreciated that the villain wasn't easily identifiable. I can't wait to read the next book.

This is a great book with a wonderful story and well developed characters. The story flowed very well and was very enjoyable. This book will keep you reading long into the night and you will not want to put this book down until you finish. This was such a great read and full of surprises. I voluntarily reviewed an advanced reader’s copy of this book. The free book held no determination on my personal review.
