“For some reason I enjoy this series enough to keep reading. Normally, when a character is so self-righteous and accuses everyone of being anti-feminist when they offer male assistance I quit. Sophie is too impulsive, demands respect and trust instead of earning it, blames everything on her boyfriend and thinks she's invincible.
The series is humorous enough but predictable and I suppose a good intermission for me while reading paranormal which is my normal genre.
Kyra Davis has made me enjoy her outrageous characters to the point that I will keep reading.
I would definitely recommend this author for anyone who enjoys light, fun and mild mystery romance.
I'm re-reading this book right now, May, 2012 in prep for the next book just released and my mind hasn't changed. My review stands. I must add that despite the irritations Sophie riles in me I have to say that I'm thankful for them. Of all of my family and friends I can't think of one who doesn't have something about them that drives me crazy. And of course, I know that my many flaws and failures do the same for the people in my world. Sophie is as flawed as a normal person should be...in someone else's eyes. I enjoy these books a lot. They make me laugh and sometimes it takes a while to figure them out. All of the characters come across as good human beings but I have my favs. Marcus has to be top on the list followed by Leah. Gabra Zackman is a fabulous performer on the audio version of the books BTW.”
