The Story:
I wonder if Hannah, like another fictional heroine of many novels I’ve read, will forever have two suitors. I also wonder if it will ever get old for me. So far, no. I figured out the killer early on and I’m proud of myself. ( )

DNF. I stopped reading at the line, "Instead of taking the easier way out and giving her daughter up for adoption, Luanne had decided to raise Suzie as a single mom." YIKES.

In the first few books I was able to ignore the errant comments about various people being fat, but this book takes it to a whole other level. It's annoying and entirely unnecessary. Also, Hannah does absolutely nothing while her business partner does all the work to keep their business afloat. I was able to ignore all this stuff in the first few books, but this one did me in early on.

This installment in the Hannah Swensen series was as good as the first 3. I guessed who it was early on but there were many moments that made me doubt my suspicions. I found that I was a little surprised to be correct in the end. I look forward to reading all of the other books in this series! ( )
