anjana 's review for:
Finding Miranda
by Iris Chacon
I have had this read pending for a while, and once I started, I had to see it through. I was lucky to have both the first and second with me and could read them in order. This book is the first in the series and introduces us to some very endearing characters. We have Miranda who is lost in the crowd, she is used to being invisible, and her neighbour seems to have made a decision to change that. Shep and his dog Dave are the lead investigators of the 'case' in the storyline. There is something shady going on in their city as well as state and Shep may have the keys to unlocking it. I do not want to say more because there were revelations that were laid out at just the right time and that timing provided the punch lines for jokes I did not even realise they had begun to tell.
The character growth of Miranda through the trials that she and Shep face in the book was very believable and did account for some of the vocal cheerings I did.
It's a simple story with a small cast and had unexpected twists which I do not usually expect from a book in this genre. I shed tears with the people involved and found the snappy conversations a treat and really looked forward to revisiting them all.
I received an ARC thanks to NetGalley and the publishers, but the review is entirely based on my own reading experience.
