Cast Iron Stake Through the Heart by Rebecca Grubb
4.0
I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy from the Great Escapes Book Tours. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.Cast Iron Stake Through the Heart by Jodie Rath and Rebecca Grubb is another tale of how Jolie and Ava try to solve a case before the police do.
Jolie Tucker is our main character and point of view narrator, who is sometimes good and sometimes bad. The good when she's investigating and stuff. For the bad is when Jolie decides to take a mental health day or gets knocked out, and then that's it for until Jolie wakes back up. Jolie is a good person at heart, but she needs to remember to bring more than one person as back up. She is still doing her therapy and is making progress with it. I am happy she is dealing with it.
What I like about her is that she is getting gutsy and tells her family to back off and let her process things before they come to check up on her. Another thing that I like is that she forces the conversation with Mick regarding their relationship. The one thing that I dislike is that she shouldn't be trying to perm her hair to look like her friend when she looks beautiful with it straight as well.
The mystery in this one was a crazy one. We have an artist commune that had most of the girls in that class (all five of them) so that they can learn to cook. Not to bad, right? Right. Well, that is until one of them gets stabbed, and now everyone is looking at that commune trying to figure out what is going on at that place. I kind of fell for the red herrings, but not as I knew something was off. They did a great job of hiding the real person behind it.
Cast Iron Stake Through the Heart by Jodie Rath and Rebecca Grubb is an exciting pair to write together. I could hardly tell when one stopped and the other began in writing their parts of this book. It's another one that kept me on my toes and wanting to know more and more. Jolie is always a fun main character to read from to find out how she is thinking about certain things.
I am giving Cast Iron Stake Through the Heart by Jodie Rath and Rebecca Grubb four stars and recommending it to anyone that wants to read it.
