"The pictures and illustrations included in the book are so much fun. They quietly reinforce you're reading about mystery writers, whether it's by the butt of a revolver included next to a plate of pasta, or a skull and crossbones thumbnail introducing the next section of recipes...all of these little details came together to make reading this cookbook an absolutely delightful experience."-Reading for Sanity
