Review: Fun, Light Read

This is a fun, light read that is easy to get lost in. Sean McDermott is a private detective that bumbles his way through life with a quick, sarcastic wit. His character is entertaining, even if his sarcasm is at times irritating to those around him.The cast of side characters is well crafted, unique, and kept me fully engaged. I particularly loved the side kick Sean picked up on the case in Mystic Falls. The interplay between them had some laugh out loud moments.The story is held up more by the zany characters than an intricate plot. Hard-core mystery fans might find the ending a little too conveniently wrapped up. And there isn't a lot of emotional depth here for readers wanting a strong connection. Overall, I think this is the perfect book for those looking for a short escape and some comic relief.
