The style of writing is fine, sometimes amusing in a snarky manner. And some were beyond stupid and good taste- as in the character who never wears undies and has a wax job in the shape of a dollar sign. Please. Not funny. Just gross. I found the main character irritating because she couldn't make up her mind about anything- her love interest, her job, even who the murderer was. A good portion of the end of the book was madly whirling among a half dozen suspects with not enough information for the intelligent reader, much less the main character, to get any inkling of the truth. For a "light-hearted"'mystery, the denouement was a bit gory. Don't think I'll pursue this series. ( ) Mysteries within mysteries and secrets inside secrets. It's fun when even the sleuth has a major secret. Dead-end job is more then a double entendre'... it's just the plain truth for Helen Hawthorne, our reluctant heroine. Her characters are anything but flat. While the story arch, at least in this installment, might be predictably in it's time line, all that seems to do is give her more creativity to spend on her wide assortment of characters. The key word here being characters. And why are some of them so dang familiar? (Think...neighbors and co-workers). Soooo glad I bought two of her works at once. Can't wait to read the next one . . . with no "reservations". aucune critique | ajouter une critique
