Is it a mystery or a food travelogue?
I have no idea how this book has so many positive reviews - such poor writing. The story line was ok and a bit intriguing, however page after page only comes to the most obvious of conclusions. Was she trying to write a mystery or a food travelogue? A man is murdered outside the very room the main character is sleeping in and yet she really can only think about the food she's eating and the town hottie. Pure madness! She's even told by the police that she can't leave because she's a suspect in the murder of a town she isn't from. Does she: A) try to get a lawyer or B) think about dinner ? If you chose B - this book is for you! The downright elementary dialogue really bothered me. It was eye rolling! Try reading the dialogue to yourself out loud and you'll find yourself laughing. If you like a who-dun-it with Italian food - this might work for you.
