The predictibility in this book was astonishing.When you take the suprise element out of a mystery book,to me it becomes dull and monotonous,which this book very much was.
I liked the whole eighties vibe this book had plus the whole " being a female" experience shown hence the two stars.Because the spooky element in this book was very much trash.I was as scared as I am while going out to disneyland.
In short,this book put me in a reading slump and the title should have been -"Two amateur women who think they are just<different>and therefore would try to solve crimes they have no business poking their noses in and ultimately get themselves into danger because they are stupid too " would have made more sense.
