I have to disagree with several of the reviews that said the first 100 pages were boring. Very interesting. The two young main characters were very well written. There is a lot of detail at the beginning but it is very helpful in understanding the characters. I flew through this book. Didn't want to put it down. Will read more by this author.

Great book. The characters were very interesting. The way they came together and interacted with each other kept you guessing. The way things came to be with Reese was a total surprise to me. Good ending. Very enjoyable read.

I was shocked to read how many people didn't enjoy this book. I absolutely loved it! Who doesn't have a celebrity crush you'd love to meet and strike up a close friendship with? I'm happily married, so friendship would be enough for me. This was hard for me to put down. Even when I wasn't reading it, I was thinking about the characters. I am not a romances reader AT ALL, mostly mystery, so this was a little out of my lane but , I thoroughly enjoyed it.

I was putting off reading this book after I read the reviews on here but I'm SOOOO glad I read it. It was a short easy read, about a day and a half. It made me think a lot about the unprecedented situation we're in now with Covid 19. I though the story was very well told and thought out. I loved Julia, the main character and how she was so true to herself. It definitely pulled at my heart strings. I thought it was phenomenal, especially since it was Walkers first book.

My 5 yr. old daughter loves Word Girl. She laughs at this book because the villain in this story has a head shaped like a sandwich and lettuce for hair. Cute read and educational. Word up!

I have loved this series up until this point. This book was so long and complicated. The characters all started to run together. It was hard for me to get through. Too political for my taste. Marlene's storyline was far more interesting than Karp's in this one. I hope the next one is more like the ones before this.

My 3 yr. old liked the pictures of the animals but thought the pictures of the Wiggles were silly. She's not a big fan.

A very sarcastic view of pirates. If you are looking for real info., it's not in this book. It is pretty funny though.

Another great Stephanie Plum mystery. Evanovich never disappoints. I wish that she and Morelli would hurry and hook up. But, that's just me. Read #4 to find out how close they come.
I can't read all of her books at one time because I like to savor them. One helping at a time.

I thought this was the best in the series so far. If you can stomach the child abuse topic (VERY hard for me), this has the best plot.
