Struggling. Not sure if it’s the narration or some of the characters. Too bad I am too tired to try and read it and see if I struggle with it less that way.

Now I am just annoyed/pissed off. Why is a pregnant character drinking wine? FAS is a real thing. And the baby has no control over it yet is the one to suffer the consequences of those actions for the rest of their lives. This was written in 1989 so FAS was known about. Grrrrr.

Not my favorite book ever, but I will finish it and give another book in the series a try some time. Maybe Lucas will become a more likeable character in it🤷♀️

Did he just ask a victim out on a date? Why does this seem odd to do during an active case? I mean he says he is getting her out of the apartment, but still….I don’t know, feels weird to me though.

I believe I gave this a try a couple of years ago and didn’t finish it. Libby shows that I made it until 22%. Not sure why I stopped, but my massage lady brought up this author and series at my last appt, so I will give it another try. It’s starting out kind of gross….
