Dead and Kicking by Wendy Roberts

jadeshea's review

2.0

Sadie thinks things with her live in boyfriend are changing, and it's not going in a good direction. She finds him hanging around his ex-girlfriend, and then is asked to help the ex clean out some things. But when an angry ghost shows up things start to go down hill quickly. Things aren't going good for Sadie with her job, her boyfriend, and her dad.

This book was not very good at all. I was seriously disappointed. I hated the wannabe "cheating" thing. And I hated how Sadie responded to it all. She should have just said what was on her mind and been done with it. I hated how her mother acted when Sadie told her the truth, and I was beyond annoyed with all of the cheating in relationships in this book.

Seriously, it was beyond annoying. I will read the next one because I'm interested in finding out what happens, but if that one isn't good then I'm done with this series. Because it also gets annoying the fact that each book is a year later, and it feels like it misses a whole lot of stuff that happened.

This is one of those fairly fluffy mysteries, though a little hardcore due to the main character's job cleaning up crime scenes. I find this series pretty charming despite the narrator's insistence on ruminating over her problems, then suddenly jumping into needless action (lots of driving all over town that seems mainly for the purpose of establishing the Seattle setting. But since I like spotting the Seattle landscape details I don't really mind.)

Sadie's dad has died and is still hanging around. Zack is back to old habits. Angry ghosts are after them all.
