Gone with the Wings (Meera Patel Cozy Mystery Series)
by Leena Clover
If you could smell the story inside books, you would be able to smell “Gone with the Wings” from across the bookstore when you walked in. And it would make you very hungry! Meera’s family dynamics are centered in the kitchen, and the author does a fantastic job of setting a plate for the reader and making them one of the group.
~Student of Opinions
Meera Patell and her pals are entertaining and provide the reader with a look into a loving and close knit family…Gone With The Wings was a fun introduction to a new series.
~My Reading Journeys
This book had some good twists and turns…and it has a great story line.
~Because I said so — and other adventures in Parenting
Gone With the Wings by Leena Clover whets your culinary and investigative appetites, as well as providing you with a glimpse inside South Asian culture and life as an international student at an American college/university.
~Reading Is My SuperPower
Ms. Clover creates such a wonderful story for these characters, giving us a look at their culture and how it impacts the way they (and other Indian members of the community) interact with the rest of the world.
~Book Babble
I also liked that the murder was solved in a roundabout way and really wasn’t the main focus, or it doesn’t appear to be the main focus most of the time.
~Storeybook Reviews
It’s impossible not to feel like you are a part of the story. I am so impressed with the articulate ways she is able to paint a picture of every scene.
