Book Review: Lust, Loathing and a Little Lip Gloss

Book: Lust, Loathing and a Little Lip Gloss (A Sophie Katz Murder Mystery book #4) by Kyra Davis

Description:

Dream house...or total nightmare?

Mystery writer and dabbling recreational sleuth Sophie Katz is head over heels in love — with a three-bedroom Victorian. She's just got to have it, despite a few drawbacks. Her slimy ex is the Realtor. The rich, creepy seller wants her to join San Francisco's spirited Specter Society. And her first tour of the house reveals, well, a lifeless body clutching a cameo with a disturbing history of its own.

There's no way Sophie is going to give up the ghost on her dreams of stained glass and original woodwork, though — even when things become officially weird. A society member is found with a slashed throat, and Sophie's house might as well be yelling, "GET...OUT!" She's hearing footsteps, lights are turning themselves off and her stuff keeps moving inexplicably. To top it off, boyfriend Anatoly thinks it's all in her head.

Sophie is 99 percent sure her problems are caused by someone six feet tall instead of six feet under, but the only way to be sure is to track down the killer — before he pushes her kicking and screaming to the other side...

Review:

This was great and very well written and not to mention very funny. The story had Sophie trying to solve the murder of a member of the Specter Society as well as trying to buy a house. Both situation were connected because the owner of the house was also a member of the group.

There were a lot of crazy zany characters in this book which I thought were very interesting. This book was just so much fun to read, now I can't wait to read the next in the series.
