This book is fairly forgettable, but it's a fun distraction. It's about Heather Wells, who works at a New York college dormitory and solves crimes.

The murder plot could have been better. Somehow, the story made it look like Heather being put in that situation was way too planned. The motive didnt look so convincing to me. Maybe because one of the characters only mentions that the stash stolen (the reason why a murder occurred in the first place) was not worth killing for. Otherwise, it was a fun read.

Loved the characters and the action-comedy plot. Reminds me of Stephanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich which I also love

When former pop star Heather Well witnesses yet another murder in he residence hall which is now beginning to be called "death dorm", she tries to find out who and why the killer did it, putting more pressure on her already stressed life (with an ex con father who has suddenly appeared in her doorstep, trying not to fall more in love with the private detective who owns the house she is living at who also happens to be her ex fiancee's brother, and her ex fiancee constantly wanting to communicate with her), whats a big girl with a big heart got to do?
This book started off a bit slow but the action started increasing little by little. The reason why I rated it three stars is (other other than its slow beginning) is that Heather's ex fiancee, Jordan Cartwright, could not be anymore annoying!!! Also, the killer was pretty predictable so it didn't really give me that sense of mystery wondering who it really was. I wouldn't really recommend this one unless you've already begun the series and your just dying to know (like I was) of what would become of Heather and Cooper (have to wait till the 3rd and last book to finally find out).

i like the author's style of writing, and her characters are hilarious, but i have a hard time getting past all the language in this one. i almost didn't finish it, but i'm dying to see if heather and cooper actually get together.
