Super in the City
by Daphne Uviller (Goodreads Author)
by Daphne Uviller (Goodreads Author)
Funny, fast-paced and clever.
Ultimately, I'd rather see protagonists, especially women, with more confidence, less neuroses, and a with a primary goal other than securing a relationship.
The mystery was fun and enjoyably convoluted. I felt there were some loose ends that could've been wrapped up to improve the overall story, but it wasn't a major deficit.
Overall, a fun beach or plane read, but maybe not one I'd recommend.
**NOTE: Reading an advanced readers' copy is difficult. It's printed off of uncorrected proofs, and I kept wanting to switch to editing mode and start marking up the text. It made it difficult to focus on the story!
