Simply Bento by Yuko and Norika is a nice combination of Japanese and American recipes. A few of the ingredients will be a bit difficult to find, but most recipes feature easy to find items. One of my favorite recipes is the Spicy Chicken Wrap Bento. Each recipe features a "plan ahead" section letting you know what steps can be done in advance. The Fresh Fruits Jelly is another easy recipe that can be altered depending on what is in season. Overall this is a nice cookbook with something for everyone.
The third book in the Bread Shop Mystery series by Winnie Archer is The Walking Bread. Ivy is the official photographer for her town's art car show. When she finds the body of her brother's rival artist, her brother becomes the main suspect. Ivy must investigate to find the true killer and clear her brother's name. The characters in this series are strong, and the mystery kept me guessing until the end. This is a strong addition to the series.disclosure: I received these e-books through NetGalley but was not otherwise compensated for these reviews. All opinions are my own
