I'm A Book Shark
Freelance copyeditor to all amazing self-published and independent authors. Check out my editing page for more information. <3
Mickey is the blogger behind I’m A Book Shark. She really wishes there was a better explanation for why she’s a book shark. A new twitter name was needed, and it had to be about her favorite hobby: reading! For whatever reason, sharks also came to mind, and a book shark was born. Besides reading, Mickey is a natural reddish-headed, late-twenties, tattooed, entertainment-of-all-kinds lover, wife of husband, mother of reptiles (and a cat and two puppies, all spoiled), student, employee, boss, and (mostly) raw vegan. Oh yeah, and she likes to blog.

You know what? I *really* liked this one. I wasn't thrilled at first with the narrator, but I ended up enjoying his voice throughout. This book reads very much like a TV show or movie. It's entertaining, funny, and slightly sexy. I enjoyed it a lot. Here are my notes:-The focus of the book seemed a little fuzzy until the middle there. I get that a lot of this had to be some background, and looking back I feel like it all worked out okay. But I did write that down because the first half of this book is about finding Nick and then a bit of her life after finding him.
-Apparently the editor is unfamiliar with the subjunctive mood.
-I wasn't quite sure why they needed the laptop in the end. My friend explained it to me, saying that the bank info was on his laptop. I guess that makes sense. Hmm.
-Derek hadn't spent ANY of that money they recovered? I get that he was on an island and really couldn't spend it on much, but it didn't make sense to me.
All in all, I liked Kate and Nick and the whole crew. Kate is tough but sensitive. Nick thinks of everything. Together, they're fun and smart. I hope there's more to them, but with JE, it's hard to tell. ;o)
It was so fun! It's like Oceans 11 in a way. They're a rag-tag team, and it's a pretty good time. There were a couple typical Janet Evanovich funny moments, and I enjoyed those. It was an entertaining ride the whole time. I'm looking forward to the rest of this series! I hope the rest of the crew comes back for the next book.
I definitely enjoyed this one, and I think I'll do a dream cast post for this one on the blog. My friend Pam will also come up with hers. It'll be fun!
