I like this series because I feel like meet up with a longtime friend every month or so.

Too much going on for me in this one. Things were too disconnected and nonrelated. I was only happy that Kinsey got herself a new apartment and a love interest.

I spent most of the book rolling my eyes at Kinsey & the return of her moments of utter stupidity. At least she managed to solve the case in the end!

Always fun, always engaging. I'm working my way through the alphabet. I'm re-reading some, reading others for the first time.

Quick and enjoyable read. I am a little disappointed that the contract killer just happened to be more into the hunt than getting the job done and not financially dependent on the job. It is just a little convenient and seems easily solved by the body guard being good at his job.

I'll be honest, I only picked up this book because it had a Volkswagon Beetle on the cover, and at the time I drove one.
And I found not only a female lead I could admire, but a world that was normal and sinister, sweet and ugly, all at the same time.

I've kept up with the series and enjoyed at least 80%, and if her last two books (I think we're at "U") are any indication, the series will end spectacularly.
