Another murder in her dormitory has Heather caught in another murder mystery. Heather balances work, school, crushes, exes, and murder in this exciting mystery. I liked this one better than the first "Size 12 is Not Fat". Its really just funnier. Not as good as her other books, but still worth reading After reading Size 12 is Not Fat, I immediately started Size 14 is Not Fat Either, because I was hooked on many of the characters. Luckily I had found them both at the library, and did not have to wait to find it somewhere else. The book starts off in a very similar fashion to Size 12 is Not Fat, explaining a few things about the residence hall the main character works in and her (slight) obsession with Cooper, her ex-boyfriend's brother that she lives with. This book ties in a few more items, introducing Heather's dad (who had been in jail for tax evasion), and many scenes with Jordan Cartwright (Heather's ex-boyfriend pop singer who is now getting married to another popular pop star). The mystery was slightly unbelievable to me, but I didn't mind much because I wasn't looking for a heavy read. I am looking forward to Big Boned, which I am currently set to receive in an online book exchange, and hope that some of the character interactions can get resolved so I don't read it and feel empty. another great one from a great author..must read no reviews | add a review

| Book description |
|
Former pop star Heather Wells has settled nicely into her new life as assistant dorm director at New York College—a career that does not require her to drape her size 12 body in embarrassingly skimpy outfits. She can even cope (sort of) with her rocker ex-boyfriend's upcoming nuptials, which the press has dubbed The Celebrity Wedding of the Decade. But she's definitely having a hard time dealing with the situation in the dormitory kitchen—where a cheerleader has lost her head on the first day of the semester. (Actually, her head is accounted for—it's her torso that's AWOL.)
Surrounded by hysterical students—with her ex-con father on her doorstep and her ex-love bombarding her with unwanted phone calls—Heather welcomes the opportunity to play detective . . . again. If it gets her mind off her personal problems—and teams her up again with the gorgeous P.I. who owns the brownstone where she lives—it's all good. But the murder trail is leading the average-sized amateur investigator into a shadowy world. And if she doesn't watch her step, Heather will soon be singing her swan song!
