Review title: pretty dumb...
Product review: I don't like when authors interject a pun or witty comment, and this book is loaded with really dumb "mental notes" of the main character, much like a sitcom character forcing a bad joke for the laughtrack to respond with fake laughter. Anyway, the characters are likeable enough, but there was no suspense or cliffhangers to keep me hooked. I often had to read over and over b/c my mind would easily get distracted. I want to be absorbed into a book and it just never happened. Spoiler alert: The reader knows from the beginning who the bad guy is, and I kept waiting for a dramatical twist that never came. This is my 2nd Lisa Scottoline book and both were mediocre at best. I doubt I will try again as there are too many better options out there.
