Biscuits and Slashed Browns is the fourth book in Maddie Day s Country Store Mysteries series This is an easy read and it flows smoothly at a steady pace The storyline is well plotted and the characters are relatable Ms Day did an excellent job of incorporating the local dialect in the spoken words, but not in the narrative, which I believe adds to the readability of her book and allowed the characters to come to life I recommend this series to readers who enjoy reading a well crafted cozy myste [...]
