P- Sue Grafton, 2008-10-31
I Love this book, all her books that I have read are great and I just have to keep buying them in hard cover....

Probably has some of the best lines of the series, 2008-09-27
The fact of the matter is that I pretty much love all of the Kinsey Milhone adventures. While some are better than others, I feel that Sue Grafton has a pretty good feel for popping out a more-than-decent mystery and this is one of them. I also feel it has some of the sassier writing Sue Grafton has dealt out along with another mystery. It's more white-collar tan I prefer, but it's still Kinsey and it's still fun.

My 1st and probably last Grafton read, 2008-09-04
I listened to this story on unabridged audio and the ending was so lacking, I honestly looked to see if there was a tape I had yet to listen to. br / br /The author goes into such extreme details as to tell the reader that the character used the restroom, (like I care, like it has any bearing at all on the story), but then ends the story abruptly, without details or any real explanation at all. br / br /Thank goodness, it was only $1 at the used book store (I can see why). Give me Nevada Barr or Elizabeth Peters any day over Grafton.

Another Good Letter..., 2008-09-02
By now with the alphabet book, one knows the formula and either likes them or does not like them. Each one gives us more insight into Kinsey's character. In this one, there were several possibilities for the whodunit which kept me guessing. There is also a good subplot involving Kinsey renting office space. She gets a little more than she bargained for!

"P is for Pedantic", 2008-06-16
This is the first Grafton book I've read. If it's any indication of the quality of her other books, this will be the last. Some of this book reads like a printout of driving directions from mapquest..."I took such-and-such road to another road and stopped. I looked left and then turned..." who cares??? She drones on and on with minutiae which drag out the story and bore the reader. The rest of the book is like reading the weather forecast, as the reader is subjected to minutiae regarding the clouds, the mist, the rain. Big deal. Who cares? Boring. Pedantic. Predictable.
