Call Me Princess by Sara Blaedel
2.0

Meh. This book was kind of a mess. I didn’t like Louise Rick at all, and I’m not sure how she’s supposedly viewed as a “tough female detective” when all she does throughout the book is have emotional breakdowns and angry outbursts at work, and also cannot cope with trauma victims in a compassionate, kind manner.

It was also way too long for the story. I swear that about 80% of the book is them trying to find the killer on dating sites — which is probably realistic (in terms of the lack of overall action/excess paperwork in a criminal case) but doesn’t really make for a compelling read.

I may try another Blaedel book at some point but right now, it’s nowhere near the top of my TBR. Ugh. It would have to be a much better written book to be worth my time.
