    Not my favorite.
  

*by B***S on Reviewed in the United States on March 20, 2018*

It was okay.  I liked the story taking place in Vienna but with only the "old biddies" along it was somewhat flat.  Would have been more fun and more realistic if, along with the OBs, Cassie had joined her or her other male friend - forget his name but he has a crush on Cassie.  Anyway, I  found it sort of blah to only have them to play off. That said, the sauna scene was too funny and wouldn't have been the same without the OBs.There were interesting characters in the form of other hotel guests - they provided some lift to the story, along with possibilities in terms of the murderer.  I found Gemma's behavior with Mei Mei more than a little bit off though.  First, I can't believe any parents in this day and age would allow their child to go off with a virtual stranger no matter where she was educated.  It also seemed out of character to me that Gemma would lie and deceive the parents even if she felt the ends justified the means.  Yes, when all was said and done she was sorry but it felt completely off to me.Like the other 3 star review, this won't put me off Ms Hanna's books - I liked this one, didn't love it, but in general find her books absolutely charming and fun to read.  I look forward to the next book in this series and the next in the "Bewitched by Chocolate" series as well.

    Fantastic Austrian Murder Mystery!
  

*by C***S on Reviewed in the United States on April 5, 2018*

All of us have favorite desserts that we tease and say, 'Its to die for.' What happens if a dessert might actually be? Well, that is exactly what went through my mind as I read this title. The Strudel plays throughout the book, but you will be surprised at it's real purpose there. I was.Gemma Rose, owner of the Little Stables Tearoom, is England's winner for tearooms. The ceremony is in Vienna, Austria. Gemma is regretful, but delighted that she is to be in Malta with her love for vacation...He cancels for work.Vienna here Gemma, and to her surprise, the Little Ole' Biddies, all four of them, come! Gemma and gang are staying at Gemma's mother's friends hotel. A beautiful upscale boutique hotel. They are thrilled. Glenda even finds a gentleman who invites her to dine with him.Until the screaming begins...said suitor is dead! Glenda is besides herself, and the Biddies are off to investigate. The Austrian police have labeled it a suicide. Nope, they know better. Gemma is roped in. There are Spa visits not to be missed (oh boy that was a surprise scene.) There are possible art forgeries, there are the precious Royal Lipizaner's 'Airs Above The Ground,' and underground railroads. There is a murderer as well. Then, the tourists and hotel residents. All this surrounded with luscious desserts and coffees.This book was great reading. I'm so fond of the horses and was lucky to have seen them perform in Las Vegas years ago. I have never forgotten the experience, so this book was tailored to me.Ms. Hanna never writes a mediocre book. She has the ability to grab the reader, put them in a gentle environment, lull them into a cozy mood, and wham! Humor, action, and a darn good murder mystery occurs. What more can you want? A recipe for Apple Strudel and Ms. Hanna gives us one at the ending. Muesli, the kitty is vastly important in this book, as well. Keep an eye on her.Enjoy, Enjoy, Enjoy!!!

    Missing the Tearoom and the Cotswold’s Characters
  

*by A***L on Reviewed in the United States on March 15, 2019*

I’ve enjoyed this series to this point, but this book fell short.  It reminded me of television series- when they run out of stories in the established village, they start shipping the heroine around the world, hoping to generate new interest.  This never works, and usually signifies the beginning of the end - “jumping the shark”, if you will.  Sending Gemma to Vienna was a drag.  I missed the quaint village in the Cotswolds, as well as the established characters.  Being introduced to all new characters was depressing.  Sure, the Old Biddies came along, but they weren’t enough to carry the plot.  Don’t know why the author even bothers to mention Devlin, as he doesn’t seem to be of any use anymore.  Clearly, there’s nothing left between him and Gemma.  Sad.  I’ve already purchased Book 9, so I’ll read it in the hope that this story and it’s characters get back on track.
