Extremely predictable, very poorly written and tough to get through. I felt I deserved a reward for actually finishing it.

It was a bit predictable and a little boring.

I thought I would enjoy this one piece of chick lit because it's also a mystery, but this book's cheesiness way overpowered its mystery and suspense. To begin with, it wasn't well-written and the characters were all shallow and one-minded; I actually found myself hating all of them. The mystery wasn't very intriguing; despite the characters always going on about the danger of the situations in which they found themselves, I never felt like any of them were ever really at risk. And apparently, the authors of this book have been out of touch with society for a while. The two main characters had the most unrealistic conversations, and used cheesy phrases like "you're on," and "girlfriend" every other sentence. If this book had been well-written and more realistic, I might have actually liked it. Reading it wasn't completely unbearable, but I won't read any more books from either of these authors.

I was quite disappointed in the book. From the summary on the back cover, it sounded like it would be an enjoyable easy read. It's considered a mystery, but the two main characters didn't really do much with the mystery. They tended to just stumble on some information here or there, which can be okay for a plot. However, once I completed the book, I felt like the authors had just thrown together every scenario they could think of to put together a mystery. I never felt like I was reading a mystery book as the plot focused more on the two ladies going to bars and a strip club. This would fall under the category of "read if nothing else is available" in my mind. Meaning it readable, but not worth going out of your way to read.
