Search - Too Big to Miss (Odelia Grey, Bk 1)

This is the first book in a series involving a plus-sized woman who questions the death of her friend. The police say it was suicide, but she has other ideas. I really liked the story, and, at times, it had me laughing out loud. I'm looking forward to reading the next book in the series.

The first in a series and I LOVE IT!!! Strong female character who is on the back side of 40 and a proud, plus-size woman! Many of the stereotypes of our society are hit head-on and smashed to bits unapologetically in the debut novel and I will not only look for more by Ms. Jaffarian but also explore the publisher Midnight Ink since they don't seem to be afraid to let real people characterize their books.

These reviews are to help you decide if the book is for you. I include the following for those who are not sure if this fits their idea of a cozy novel.

I loved this book, I am an adult and the subject did not shock or offend me. It is not really a cozy since it deals a lot of porn web can sites. The attitude seems to be that hosting a porn website is a healthy expression for a plus size woman to help others. Kinda in the same vein hey," I am fat but I can still paint my toe nails red/do web porn. I hope I inspire you to do the same thing." A little to nonchalant about web porn being healthy.

But the mystery was very very good, The main character is very likable, the writer is witty not whiny, I will go on to read the other books.

There were a few lines in the 1st few chapters that made me wonder if it was a christian fiction, (which I dont care for) but it is not. So keep reading.
