Ok, I'm not sure if it's just Loretta Chase's writing style or just the characterization, but I had a lot of trouble adapting to the often superfluous and hyperbolic dialogue. It works for the characters, and once I got used to it, I had more fun, but man it was tough at the beginning (also because this is #4 in a series I haven't read). I did really enjoy the banter between Raven and Clara, as well as their amateur spy adventures - even if it did feel like swimming through molasses like text at times.
