Can’t-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted here to spotlight and discuss the books we’re excited about that we have yet to read. Generally they’re books that have yet to be released. Find out more here.
I have been enjoying the ice cream shop cozy mystery series Dana Mentink has out and look forward to her upcoming book. Pre-order here
About the book
A murder for the holidays is about to shake things up!
Trinidad Jones is starting the festive season with sugary confections and a heaping scoop of worry as her shake shop enters its first Oregon winter. With snow abound and tourists trickling through, she’ll do anything to keep her milkshake dreams afloat, even if it means catering a holiday steamboat party for some new arrivals in town.
But when her good-for-nothing ex crashes through her shop’s door claiming he’s being charged with murder, things go sideways. With clues piling up like whipped cream on a sundae and motives abound, Trinidad and her fellow ex-wives must solve this murder before she’s finally thrown for a scoop.
The third book in the Shake Shop Mysteries following Trinidad Jones who makes sweet confections and solves sticky situations in her small town!

This one looks such fun – I hope you enjoy it. Right now, I’m avoiding books that lean heavily into decadent goodies as I’m trying to eat healthily:)).

Yes, I don’t blame you, books with treats influence me as well. Best of luck with your healthy lifestyle. You can do it and you’ll feel so much better
I’m a vegetarian myself and it’s helped give me more energy and feel better 😊❤️📚💯🩷🪻🌸

That you for your kind good wishes, Deanne:)). I’m also vegetarian and also know what you mean when you mention feeling so much better and with more energy when giving up meat. However, I’m currently battling chronic fatigue brought on by Long Covid – and I’ve discovered that sugar is my enemy. It absolutely fells me, so I’ve given it up. And reading about sweet treats doesn’t help!:)).

You’re welcome. I’m so glad to hear you’re also a vegetarian 🙂 I’ve been one for about 3.5 years, so not a long time yet but I can’t even imagine going back. I’m sorry to hear about your health battle but I know avoiding sugar is an excellent thing. I know it’s also my enemy, giving me inflammation in the form of aches and pains. I truly do feel better myself without it. It has been so nice chatting with you. Have a relaxing day! 🙂

And you, Deanne! And yes… I completely concur about the aches and pains. I was getting all sorts of miserable aches in my wrists and fingers that have cleared up since I have cut sugar out of my diet – mostly!!
