    <body><![CDATA[This is the 1st adult novel by O'Connor most well known for her popular series of children's books starring Fancy Nancy. I thought the book was amusing and well thought out for a chick lit type murder mystery. It reminded me a lot of the Kate White books which I also enjoy quite a bit.

    <![CDATA[<p> Miranda &quot;Rannie&quot; Bookman&#8212;43, divorced mother of two, with a recent love life consisting of a long string of embarrassingly brief encounters&#8212;is beginning to feel like a dangling participle: connected to nothing. Her career as a copyeditor is down the toilet (she makes one little slip&#8212;a missing &quot;l&quot; from the last word in the title of the Nancy Drew classic <em>The Secret of the Old Clock</em>&#8212;and suddenly she's Publishing Enemy #1!), so she's been forced to take any gig she can get. And that means giving tours at the Chapel School, the ultra-exclusive, ultra-expensive, private academy that her children attend. Certainly not the most interesting of employments . . . at least until someone stumbles across the dead body of the Director of College Admissions. </p> <p> Investigating a murder was never in her job description, but with her soon-to-be-college-bound boy Nate a prime suspect, Rannie has little choice. Besides, who better to dot all the &quot;i&quot;s and cross all the &quot;t&quot;s than a self-proclaimed &quot;language cop&quot;? Her diligence might even lead her to a brand-new love. Or to a killer. Or to another corpse&#8212;hopefully not her own. </p>]]>

    <body><![CDATA[NYT Book Review 8/18/07<br/>Fun chick-lit for the older crowd, but with a substantial portion in the first person from some high-school senior characters, all credible and likeable.

I don't believe she'd do a few of the pseudo-detective things she's feels compelled to do however that's what drove the plot.

While the mystery wasn't overly hard to figure out, the book was still reading -- sort of chick lit meets mystery, rather than a full-on mystery. Besides, who *wouldn't* want to read something by the Fancy Nancy author?!]]></body>

    <![CDATA[<p> Miranda &quot;Rannie&quot; Bookman&#8212;43, divorced mother of two, with a recent love life consisting of a long string of embarrassingly brief encounters&#8212;is beginning to feel like a dangling participle: connected to nothing. Her career as a copyeditor is down the toilet (she makes one little slip&#8212;a missing &quot;l&quot; from the last word in the title of the Nancy Drew classic <em>The Secret of the Old Clock</em>&#8212;and suddenly she's Publishing Enemy #1!), so she's been forced to take any gig she can get. And that means giving tours at the Chapel School, the ultra-exclusive, ultra-expensive, private academy that her children attend. Certainly not the most interesting of employments . . . at least until someone stumbles across the dead body of the Director of College Admissions. </p> <p> Investigating a murder was never in her job description, but with her soon-to-be-college-bound boy Nate a prime suspect, Rannie has little choice. Besides, who better to dot all the &quot;i&quot;s and cross all the &quot;t&quot;s than a self-proclaimed &quot;language cop&quot;? Her diligence might even lead her to a brand-new love. Or to a killer. Or to another corpse&#8212;hopefully not her own. </p>]]>

    <body><![CDATA[Solidly engaging romantic suspense.  Not great literature, particularly, but O'Connor managed to take multiple disparate plot threads and multiple 3rd person limited POVs and make them work, pulling them all together nicely at the end.  Brain candy, but well-written brain candy.]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This was given to me by my sister. It's the author's first adult novel...she normally writes &quot;Fancy Nancy&quot; for kids (also worth reading). The book is a fun detective novel, with a good twist at the end. Light reading, and very worth it. <br/>]]></body>

    <![CDATA[<p> Miranda &quot;Rannie&quot; Bookman&#8212;43, divorced mother of two, with a recent love life consisting of a long string of embarrassingly brief encounters&#8212;is beginning to feel like a dangling participle: connected to nothing. Her career as a copyeditor is down the toilet (she makes one little slip&#8212;a missing &quot;l&quot; from the last word in the title of the Nancy Drew classic <em>The Secret of the Old Clock</em>&#8212;and suddenly she's Publishing Enemy #1!), so she's been forced to take any gig she can get. And that means giving tours at the Chapel School, the ultra-exclusive, ultra-expensive, private academy that her children attend. Certainly not the most interesting of employments . . . at least until someone stumbles across the dead body of the Director of College Admissions. </p> <p> Investigating a murder was never in her job description, but with her soon-to-be-college-bound boy Nate a prime suspect, Rannie has little choice. Besides, who better to dot all the &quot;i&quot;s and cross all the &quot;t&quot;s than a self-proclaimed &quot;language cop&quot;? Her diligence might even lead her to a brand-new love. Or to a killer. Or to another corpse&#8212;hopefully not her own. </p>]]>
