008 - One Spoonful of Trouble by Nic Saint
No quote from the book for this one or lines that stood out to me because I am still trying to figure out why I actually finished this book? I got it for free from kindle because an ad showed up on my facebook claiming that the mysteries of Belle & Whitehouse were the in the same realm as Stephanie Plum. I am always up for a good mystery and if you can be funny to boot? Totally in. We have some funny scenes. Some cute ones and I even liked the main character for the most part to start with. Felicity seemed like a strong willed stubborn woman who knew what she wanted from life and was content with that. But she quickly seemed to turn into a naive girl who had no real thought process of her own. No true gut instinct so to speak. If someone was nice to her they were a good person but if they turned around and had a cross word for her they were evil and she flip flopped with each mood swing of each character. It got old quickly that she seemed unable to read people.
I could go on and on about how this book drove me nuts. There was no real mystery to speak of to start with. The chapters seemed out of order and out of place at times. And while I do like at times when a book will give you more then one character's point of view in the book there is such a thing as too many different points of view. It all became to jumbled and confusing on who you were following at any given moment.
I only gave this one 2 stars. Mostly because there were some funny moments and some cute moments. It was a quick easy read but I don't think I will be reading anymore in the series.
Currently reading: Best Friends Forever by Jennifer Weiner
I am currently 2 books ahead of my 50 books goal. I have a feeling I may fall behind though Best Friends Forever is a fairly long book and I haven't decided on other one to start along side it yet.
