A review by shelley_pearson
Damn Straight by Elizabeth Sims
2.0
After I finished the first book in this series, I jumped right into the second. This one was definitely more romance than the first, and the romance was an insta-love. The book also had a lot about golf, which I’m not particularly interested in. So, it was a little rougher for me than the first book. I still like a lesbian amateur sleuth, but I decided to give the series a break after this one.
Two other things that I thought were weird:
•This book took place so long after the first book! I’m used to mystery series where the main character solves a few mysteries within a year, but I think this book picked up a few years after the first one. I didn’t understand why, or what Lillian had been doing during that time.
•I felt like Lillian lost a lot of her personality from the first book. She just immediately became Genie’s assistant and supporter. Then at the end, after Lillian found out Genie’s secret, they just kind of separated. The resolution of their relationship didn’t feel satisfying to me.
