A Ski Diva Mystery
review 1: I picked up this book for my trip to China, and I ended up finishing it before I even left San Francisco! I wanted to check it out since I adore Wendy, and I trusted she would do justice to skiing culture and experience. The reading is very effortless and fast, which makes it easy to get engrossed. Stacey is a great protagonist, and I love her determination and courage to drop her "real-life" to try her hand at ski-bumming. Wendy includes touches that, as a life-time skier, made me smile and laugh. She captures the feeling of living in a small ski town well, and even though it can be a bit cliche, it's very enjoyable to read. And what honest ski girl wouldn't love Chip - the sweet, cute ski patroller who loves a good full moon ski tour. Swoon! I'm excited to pick u... morep the next one!
review 2: This book brought back memories of my time as a ski instructor and living at Loon and Stratton Mountain--well, not the murder part so much, but the setting. I found it to be a great page-turner. It only took me about a day to read it, and I worked most of that day. I'd recommend it to any mystery reader who skis, or anyone who would like to catch a glimpse of what life is really like at a mountain. less

A simple mystery, but I did enjoy reading about skiing since I know nothing about that lifestyle.
