Quirky and entertaining; not a must-read, but fun and quick.

My first by this author. It was truly a fun romp and exactly what I needed. You definitely need to suspend disbelief but I find mystery laughing out loud write a few times.

This book was interesting, and had a lot of potential, but lacked emotion. I almost didn't believe the romance part, because it was came off as so unfeeling. The premise was good and very interesting, there was just something about it that felt stiff.
