This book was unique in that the protagonist has Lyme disease which added a different dimension to the story. It is about Charlotte Donovan who works for a famous biographer of movie stars, but alas the biographer dies in the first chapter and Charlotte must unravel the many unsolved mysteries and issues. The story is interesting and certainly held my interest. There were many twists and turns in the plot and one is never sure what is going on or what will happen next. Should Charlotte trust the policeman or is he one of the antagonists. characters turn up in droves children at a free ice cream truck and it is up to Charlotte (and the reader) to sort the good from the bad and the nonessential. In the end it is all sorted out and the ending is quite satisfying but I still felt as if something were a bit off, too many MacGuffins perhaps. That being said I was engaged in the book and would certainly read another by this author.
Thank you to NetGalley, the publisher and the author, for an ARC of this book, in exchange for an honest review.
I thought that this book was a highly entertaining start to a new mystery series. There was fun and enjoyable characters, some romance, a great location and a complex murder mystery.
I would definitely read the next book in the series.
The Jean Harlow Bombshell is a unique and entertaining read. The characters are likeable. It's just a fun story to read, especially if you like old movies.
All I can say after reading this is WOW. I was a fan of this author before, but this book takes me to new levels of awe. I loved everything about this story, the characters, the mystery, and the whole plot was so different and unique, I just couldn't get enough. I will read this series as quick as the author can churn them out.
