3.0 out of 5 stars So-So, March 19, 2007

This series has become very predictable. Desiree gets a case, talks to lots of people, spends hours upon hours typing up her notes, reviews her notes 500 times, and then on the 501st review, sees something that leads her to the solution.

Add in a few nagging phone calls from the whiny Ellen (and one Mandarin Joy dinner at her apartment), a few evil eyes from the annoying Jackie for not being privy to Desiree's every move, and a few dates with the nerdy Nick, who spends most of his time fretting about his over-the-top monster kid, and it's getting hard to tell one installment apart from the next.

4.0 out of 5 stars This series is fun, June 9, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
There is nothing profound about this series, and the mysteries are not highly mysterious, but it is a great deal of fun. Time spent in Desiree's company is always enjoyable.

4.0 out of 5 stars Enough With the Notes Already :0, June 30, 2007
By Born to Read (Eastern USA) - See all my reviews
  
Finding what I call a "sophisticated cozy," is often a challenge. This is my first in this series, and it didn't dumb-down the mystery too much. Good characters and an interesting plot. I am concerned, based on one of the other reviews, that the series may become formulaic, but I will order more. Besides most authors of mystery series have a formula. No matter who you read, after a while, you get tired and need to switch up. My only criticism had to do with the notes. My goodness, she spends HOURS transcribing her notes. That is a little unbelievable. The interviews aren't that long. Fill that time with something else, Desiree. Maybe it's a ploy to close loose ends: Eureka! The answer was in my NOTES. Whatever. This isn't rocket science. We who like uncomplicated mysteries are going to have to take a little imperfection. This book was fun. I recommend it and will visit with Desiree again.
