review 1: It was an okay read. Too many culinary instruments which most people barely know was mentioned. Although everyone was touting Annie to be this big shot, bright, sharp detective it was never proved anywhere in the book. First of all if she had already solved 3 murders she would have been quicker on the uptake about the SUV following her. All i have ever done is read mystery novels and even I knew that was dodgy. And how stupid can you be to leave your car all night in front of a store, with the SUV parked nearby and believe no one would follow Norman. I continuously found the protagonist very dimwitted and slow and frankly frustratingly stupid. I cannot see how in this novel she proved herself to be a good detective seeing as even though she had enough reason to be suspicio... moreus of anyone being killed suddenly at the show that Norman is performing in and yet could not even relate it. Honestly it was a very painful read.. Painful because of the painfully dimwitted so called detective protagonist.
review 2: 4th in the series about Annie & Eve, best friends that solve mysteries in their spare time..well, sometimes it gets in the way of their jobs. This installment finds Annie working at the Bellywasher's full time after deciding to quit her job at the bank. Her ex shows up (turns out he is divorcing the woman he left her for and might want to rekindle something) and Jacques who create Vavoom! has gone missing when his employee Greg was killed in the shop.I wasn't sure when I read the first book in this series, but I have enjoyed the last 3 books and they are worth reading. less
