Review: Superficial and incredibly short.

I can't believe I'm saying this of one of Dana Marie's books, but wow, what a disappointment.The story line is good, I'm not disappointed with that.  It's that the book is so incredibly short.  It had the feel of a book she dashed off one Sunday afternoon. Or perhaps a short story/essay/assignment for a Uni course that she decided, years later, to have printed.I won't go into what it's about, several reviews already cover it quite eloquently. What I will say is there was no depth to the story and character lines were not developed.  It was so brief and superficial it could have been a couple of discarded chapters out of one of the other books. After all Ben & Dave's  years of history, she really could have done so much more with this story.I was also expecting it to contain some continuation to the `Bad guys stalking the Hale Pumas and Pocono Wolves' plot from Bare Necessities.  But considering it hardly touched on its own plot, I guess it was too much to hope it would continue that one along.I just hope this doesn't set the bar for books to come. And I won't be falling into the trap of pre ordering another one, that's for sure!
