Somewhat Funny submitted by ErinDurrett on June 15, 2013, 6:43pm Well gee...where do I begin with this book? I liked it, probably because I like murder mysteries even if this wasn't the best one, because it's a rom com murder mystery, like its predecessors. And I usually enjoy the rom com parts too, but this one simultaneously intrigued and annoyed me. You know when a romance has been dragged out too long that by the time the couple gets together you shout "Finally!"? Yeah, this book did not elicit that reaction. I believe it was more along the lines of "Whatever" with a big eye roll. The scenes between Jamie and Max were not very exciting. His controlling nature was starting to tick me off in an extreme way. I have had enough of controlling male leads from Twilight and Fifty Shades of Grey to last me a lifetime, thank you. A pet peeve of mine is when characters refer to fearing for the others safety as a means of not allowing them to live their lives. Helloooo? I am more likely to be killed in a car accident than be murdered by a serial killer. Just sayin' The best features for me was the murder mystery involving personal ads, the new lingerie shop in town (opened by a former librarian ;) ), Destiny the psychic and her not-yet-crossed-over-ghost pal Ronnie, Dee Dee and Beanie and all their utter ridiculousness and of course Fleas and his ice cream eating ways. Another major issue for me was Vera. I bet there are fans of this series out there that love her, but seriously when is it acceptable for a mother figure to call her surrogate daughter a slut, be super judgmental and a hypocrite to boot? Her character is meant to be a means of comic relief and for me at least, always falls flat of the mark. It occurred to me the reason I enjoyed the previous book so much was because Vera was not strictly in it. If you like the series, go for it, maybe Full Blast will leave a better taste in your mouth than it did mine.
