I really enjoyed this book. The characters are amazing and the story line once again is well written. This is definitely a 5 star must read
I'm a sucker for any books about lawyers and court cases, and this book did not disappoint. Another awesome book from a new to me author. Once again, thanks to #NetGalley I have started another book series. Can't wait to read about more Tug Wyler cases.
A huge thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for sending me a digital copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. I truly appreciate it!
Thanks to NetGalley for providing a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. This review is based on having read only a portion of the book, as I it didn't engage my attention, nor did I find any characters sympathetic. Rather, I found the protagonist to be snarky and somewhat snide, with an attempt to be funny when often I didn't find it to be funny. In addition, there was too much information peppered throughout the book of a technical nature, regarding medical terms and procedures, dental procedures,, etc. Overall, it wasn't entertaining for me, having worked in both rehabilitation and medical training. Perhaps it was too much like a busman's holiday for me.
I was able to read about 20% of the book before I finally decided I simply wasn't going to find any entertainment in it. It may appeal to people who have a particular sense of humor, one that leans more toward being sarcastic in nature. In addition, there were brief forays into language which didn't really seem to further the book nor endear the protagonist to me.
Finally, there were so many other "cases" thrown into the book it was difficult to develop any continuity to Nellie's case and therefore to develop an interest in how it was resolved. I do prefer to read more classic murder mystery books, so it's entirely possible this book might appeal to a different audience.
This is very good, I found that the story entwined with others and all had satisfactory outcomes, and where well developed. If you like legal mysteries, this series is pretty good, with surprising twists throughout. I found it very human, readable and interesting. I like the characters in the stories, even the shonky ones – they where extremely well drawn
