While this was a good book, I can't say its a favorite of the series.  Since I didn't read them in order, that could have something to do with that.  I now have them lined up to finish in the right order and that should take care of that.  It does give us an update on Julia, for those who have been following these stories.  It also is the book where Maggie Spritzer is introduced and the other reporter Ted starts "working'' with her.  They both are looking for The Pulitzer and are only willing to work together so far.  At this point of the story, their time together is just starting, its really just early days.
