An Addison Holmes Mystery
review 1: Thank goodness this was free. I just couldn't finish. This story caught my interest from the first page...drama and humor combined. The story line was really good and I really wanted to find out what happened, but I CAN'T STAND THE MAIN CHARACTER, ADDISON!!!!! Oh my gosh, what a DITZ, an airhead, so irritating!!! I have no patience for a person that causes their own trouble. And Addison is a high school teacher????She breaks the rules and wonders why she gets into trouble?She takes a 2nd job as a stripper and wonders how word gets out in this small town.She eats a banana split while driving through morning traffic. Not a cone you can eat with one hand, a banana split, that takes a utensil. She cuts people off, almost gets into an accident.She can't keep promises or secrets... more. Ugh! Steer clear of this immature 30 yr old. She sounds like a high school student herself and even then an immature high school student.If the author had just toned down Addison's antics, I would have really enjoyed the book. A little bit of a klutz or airhead is fine, but one right after the other and her inability to understand why things happen to her was just too much.As I was reading, I said to myself, oh no, here it comes. I can see another mini disaster about to happen because Addison will make the wrong aka STUPID decision. If she does, I'm done with this book. She did. It was very anti-climatic to only be able to delete this book off my Kindle. If this was a paperback, I would have enjoyed tearing it apart in the same childish manner of Addison.
review 2: I couldn't finish it. Actually I liked the idea of the book but it's more like a raw draft and not a finished book. There are huge plot holes, the characters are not very well developed and also not very likeable.For example: it isn't a funny banter between potential lovers if the male says she is in a bad mood because of "those days in the month". For heaven's sake: we have 2014 - how old is this "funny joke"?Major plot holes: given the circumstances you would assume that Addison is the main suspect but no: the police just let her go. Or: her friend arranges a blind date and in the next chapter it's the next day and we hear nothing about the date again.Perhaps it could be a good book but it needs a good editor who corrects the faults. less

Good funny mystery; love interest was bizarre and it skipped some details, but still a good read.
