Shoes to Die For by Laura Levine

2.0

Not wonderful by any means. I got about a third of the way through this book and decided it wasn't worth my time. I found the main character annoying, especially the way she would do or say something and then explain what she really did or said in that situation. She may have been realistic, with her lack of intelligence, lack of willpower and ambition, and inability to use money wisely. I'm sure there are a lot of people like her. But it really didn't make me want to see her succeed and solve the mystery. The writing is decent but the author leaves out chunks of time in an annoying way, and the repetitive references to the main character's Corolla and her frizzy hair and her cat's inattention to her, were all very grating.
