Not a literary gold medalist, but a fun romp of a book nevertheless. Reading another installment of the Regan Reilly series is a good choice when I need something quick and light to read.

First thought when finished: This was a perfect summer afternoon mystery--not to complicated but very fun!
What I Loved: Characters! Seriously, I just about loved every character in Gypped. I am not saying who was my favorite or who was just seriously bad but they all packed quite a wallop. I will say that a "certain someone" at the end with his "I don't want to read it" cracked me up! I loved the letter that he received and I thought it was a perfect ending to this story. I would hang out with everyone in this story---well except for the bad guys :)
What I Liked: The mystery was not overly complicated but it was fun. Reagen did a fantastic job of sifting through the information, getting a little in over her head, and most of all reconnecting with her friend Zelda (whom I loved)! I just thought it was downright fun.
Audio Review: Took me a bit to warm up to Michele Pawk but in the end she was perfect for Regan Reilly. I would listen to her again!
Final Thought when finished: I think fans of Carol Higgins Clark will love this entry into the series.

An enjoyable mystery in the Regan Reilly series. This was a quick read. I've read all of the books in this series. This one was one of the better stories out of the last few that I have read. As usual, it had the handful of quirky and shady characters.

This was a nice light listen while driving the kids around. I didn't have to worry about turning it off when someone got in the car, but it kept me entertained. Perfect summer reading.

This was just about what I wanted. Easy, quick, and fun.
The writing style is painful and sloppy. I kept wondering how an editor let those things go. Weird thoughts. Weird texts. Just so weird. A ton of dialogue.
But it's fun and I'll read more when I need a break.

Carol Higgins Clark isn't the best author, but her books are fun. As long as you go into it not expecting too much, this book is a pleasant diversion for a couple hours. I liked this one better than her last few. I don't know if this was because it was better or if I was just in the right mood today!
Still, I don't know if I can give it three stars, since I could see every plot twist coming and the writing style does leave something to be desired.
