In this book a Rebecca Adrian, A scout for the cooking channel comes to Memphis to look for the bet BBQ in Memphis for an upcoming show. After eating at Aunt Pat's she was to go to a competitor to try their food but is later found dead, and some think it was eating at Aunt Pat's. And Lulu tries to figure out who did it to save the restaurant reputation.
The book was okay. it was a good for first of the series. It had some interesting characters like the Grace's(a bunch of Elvis fans who work at Graceland to make sure the tourist don't touch anything or go where they are not suppose to go). Will I read others in the series? I might. I have them on my wish lit on Shelfari and if I find the books at a thrift store or at the library I might pick it up.
Here is my art for the book.
No you are not looking at the page wrong. After I did the background and before I put the pig image on the page I realized the page was upside down. I guess when I was straying I move the page upsidedown to do some drips. Sigh! So I deiced to leave it as is and finish it. :P
This is what I looks like right side up! :)
Next month I'm going to read Teaberry Murder by Laura Childs.

This actually sounds like a book I might enjoy. I hope to find it at my library, too. Thanks.
Your upside down pig was perfect even when it was upside down. I liked how you sectioned the cuts. Really clever, and it looks like a real pig, too. Clever.
Good, honest review, Sheri...and I too think it's appropriate that your pig is upside down...makes me think that the pig died as did the food critic! A happy mistake! :)
I love how you wove the symbolism in the book within your art. Brilliant. The pig images was spot on! Thanks for a great review!
ohh i love the upside down pig, it was obv meant to be. had to smile at the reference to the Graces, now that job must be a labour of love.
Your journal page is great! The background is full of interest and layers. Having the pig upside down focused my attention on your lovely artwork.

Love the colorful pig; upside down and right side up ;-)
