This book was hilarious. Honestly I love the character Jaine. She is so funny. I will explain more about this in a bit but first lets talk about the actual mystery.
While the book is hilarious and the characters amazing, the actual plot is really good. From reading the reviews of this book and the synopsis it’s easy to disregard this book as a good mystery. When you actually read it, it’s actually a fantastic mystery.
You have Jaine investigating murder and the messes she gets into are so ridiculous but in a good way, yet it doesn’t take away from the mystery. I was so convinced it had been this one character as the killer, and I had a secondary character that I suspected. I was so excited that the two people I thought were the killers, one actually was!
Ok back to how hilarious this book is. Jaine is that typical “chick lit” romantic comedy clumsy girl who the guy always ends up falling for. Even though she is single and there’s not even a prospect for love. The dialogue from her character at one point or another we can all relate to.
I would totally recommend this book to anyone who likes chick lit, romantic comedies, or a good mystery with other great components.
Now I leave you with one of my favorite quotes from this book (Page 17).
“How am I supposed to get into this?” I asked, waving it out the dressing room door.
“It’s spandex,” Lance said. “It stretches.”
Somehow I managed to squeeze myself into it. And for the first time in my life I knew what it felt like to be a sausage.
