Review: Fun! But only if you're already a fan, I think.

I really enjoyed this. But I can see why people who weren't already familiar with the characters didn't like it. For instance:  Gertie, deciding she was going to cure the former postman of his fear of dogs, even though she was warned to keep her dog away from him? Typical Gertie! But you might think she was really stupid and unlikeable if you didn't already know her.I've read all the Gertie Johnson mysteries and I have to say, it took me until the third book to really start to appreciate the characters. So I wouldn't expect someone to just pick up this novella and "get" it.
