Book Description:
Bubbles is heeding a call from her boss at the News-Times and racing her Camaro toward a potentially big news story. But when she arrives at an abandoned coal mine, she finds the love of her life, Steve Stiletto, knocked unconscious and the body of another man with a sizeable hole in his chest. Moments later, Bubbles and Stiletto are trapped by an explosion. Convinced that someone wants them dead, they search for their intended assassin in coal country, where they uncover a conspiracy at the Main Mane hairdressing salon, a cadre of women known as the Sirens of Slagville, and a hot spot called Limbo that's been burning underground for forty years.

With a cast of characters headed by the usual suspects -- Bubbles's brainy teenage daughter Jane; Jane's clueless boyfriend G; and that dynamite duo, her mother LuLu and paranoid sidekick Genevieve -- and led by the singular Bubbles herself, this is another fast and furious tale that will keep readers in Limbo -- and in stitches.

Another in the Bubbles series, this time she is investigating the happenings of an abandoned coal mine and dodging danger as well. Quick and lighthearted read. Interesting 'recipes' included.

A cute funny book! Bubbles gets into alot of trouble in this one! If you like Evanovich, you'll like Sarah Strohmeyer's Bubbles series!

"Two Guys Community College" journalism graduate, Bubbles Yablonsky is off and running again in this 3 installment in the Bubbles series.

Spandex & leopard print clad, bubblegum chomping, in-your-face sexy former hairdresser, Bubbles is still barely hanging on to her job as a part-time reporter for the local paper while solving murders and raising her teen-aged daughter.

Laugh-out-loud funny with likeable characters; as a bonus there are good beauty tips inside (such as a green-tea/potato compress for bags under the eyes as well as a peel-off-jello masque and a Miracle Whip facial, etc. When I was really feeling guilty about reading instead of doing chores, I rationalized that I was doing "self-improvement research" instead of pleasure reading (however, I didn't even fool myself)!

A fluffier version of a Stephanie plum book. In these the main character is a hair lady with desires to do investigative journalism. She has the required rough - tough guy to help her out, and some truly crazy family members to keep things interesting

Bubbles Yablonsky, hairdresser and wanna be big story reporter, bumbles her way through another engaging puzzle. With a cast of colorful characters and some laugh-out-loud funny lines, this book is once again downright amusing.

Bubbles #3

Not my favorite Bubbles book. Starts slow. Real slow. The ending was great.

Bubbles is a hoot. A hair dresser turned reporter, she fumbles her way through investigations. Always a great cast of characters and a hot love interest. Very entertaining the whole series through. I would suggest reading them in order.

I couldn't get into this book. I find dumb blonde jokes and stories annoying.

Being an old hairdresser myself, I love Bubbles! She's got spirit and smarts.

A bizarre murder scene leads not-so-dumb blonde Bubbles Yablonsky and her main squeeze into the heart of a conspiracy linked to a secret cadre of strange women, and a mysterious assassin who wants Bubbles's investigation to go up in flames....

Another funny entry into this series. My wife and I both thought that the author was straining here and there trying to be funny, but overall it's still a good story with lots of good moments.
