Review: A 4.5, fun, fast read!

The first book in the Lexi Carmichael Mystery Series.  I had been putting this off since I lumped it into the Stephanie Plum and Brandy Alexander category.  This book is VERY similar to those series.  I do find the Janet Evanovich books much more humorous, but I like the character of Lexi a bit better than Stephanie.  Maybe because Lexi is smarter.  I know I will eventually tire of a possible love triangle.  The author set it up quite clearly and they are almost clones of Ranger and Morelli.  I do recommend this book and will keep reading them unless they start getting too predictable and/or dragging out the same story line.  I have to say, as much as I love the Stephanie Plum books (I'm a huge fan and recommended them to many friends) I haven't read one since 12 or 13.  Couldn't take them any more, no growth or decisions were ever made.  I am hopeful Julie Moffett won't let that happen here.
