True, the main character, Louisa, is flawed. Her morals are a bit off...coming into work late, taking long lunch hours, leaving early, not working when she was working, jumping into bed on the first date, etc., but she did draw the line at dating married men.The story was interesting, fast-paced, and many of the people weird--the roommate especially so. Some of the language was not PG, and Louisa says things I wouldn't even think.I was annoyed by the over use of "anyways".  When it was just Louisa saying it, I thought it was a part of the character's style, but when Martin, Rocky and Clark said it too, I realized it was an inadvertent error of the author.  And while I am nitpicking, "suddenly got a text on my phone" was a strange thing to say.  Where else do you get texts? And aren't they all sudden?  I know, picky, picky.I did enjoy much of the character's interaction with coworkers and friends and police.  It made the book worth the read.
