This Pen For Hire | Laura Levine

"I'm crazy about Laura Levine's mystery series. Her books are so outrageously funny." --Joanne Fluke Smarmy personals ads. Daring declarations of love. Freelance writer Jaine Austen has penned them all. But no one needs her help more than geeky, gawky Howard Murdoch. His request is simple enough: a letter proclaiming his undying love for Stacy Lawrence, a gorgeous aerobics instructor. The fact that he's never actually met the woman gives Jaine pause--yet she soon overcomes her misgivings, and the unlikely Romeo lands a date! But his triumph is short-lived. On Valentine's Day, Howard finds Stacy bludgeoned to death with a Thigh Master--and is quickly named the prime suspect. Jaine is shocked. Sure, Howard's awkward and eccentric. But a murderer? That's hard to believe. Especially after a little sleuthing reveals a plethora of people who harbored less-than-loving feelings towards the svelte Stacy. Now Jaine had better wrangle her clues quickly, before a crafty killer catches on--and puts a whole new spin on her ghost writing career. . . "Sheer fun!" --Carolyn Hart

This is the first in the series and the seventh of the series I have read. I missed the funny emails from our heroine‘s parents that books later in the series have as a second story of sorts.

I‘m not a superfan of cozy mysteries, but some are fine in a pinch. This one was possibly the worst I‘ve ever read. Read my full review here: https://debbybrauer.org/#this-pen-for-hire

This was such a good mystery book! I'm always reading/watching some sort of mystery/horror show with plots. So there isn't too many I can't figure out before it happens. But holy plot twist at the end of this one!

I found this one at the op shop over the road from Savers... I remember reading these a really long time ago - when it was common for the library to shelve paperbacks by genre...

I‘m hoping it‘s still a cute read but it‘s highly possible that it might not stand up to rereading.

I wanted to catch up with some of the books I read since I started this account that I never uploaded so I am going to start with this one.

I am not sure if it is the time this book was written but I found very little I really liked about this book and A LOT I found problematic from the stereotypes about LGBTA + people to the body shaming the main character consistently did to herself, it just was not entertaining.
