Really enjoyable book – the 1st in the Fat City Mystery series. I definitely am looking forward to more in this series! Recommended!

I actually didn't finish that one… I don't know if it was just the mood I was in (could be) but I didn't like the main character and thought it was a little weird and gory for a cozy. The fork through the eyeballs was a little much, lol!
Jenny – I thought the same thing when I was reading it. It didn’t feel like a cozy to me either. I still liked the book, but it was a bit too graphic for what I know a cozy to be!
Maybe if I had gone into it knowing that I would have liked it better… it's not like I stay away from other gory books, lol!
Hi Jennifer! Just dropping by to say thank you so much for reading and reviewing Dying to be Thin! I was thrilled to see your review and I really enjoy your blog, by the way. I have added it my list of book review blogs. Best Regards, Kathryn Lilley
Thanks so much for posting, Kathryn! I'm looking forward to reading the rest of the Fat City books!
