Seize Dead Air Conveyed By Robin Caroll Categorized In Paper Copy

love a good mystery and this kept me up reading all night to finish, I love it. LOVE! I disliked the first half of this novel, and I disliked Gabby, I disliked the instalove. I disliked all the temper tantrums noyearold should behave that way, Not enough was done with the southern setting, which is a real shame, I've been to Louisiana and Mississippi, and they are beautiful states, but all the reader gets is several bland references to magnolia trees, I disliked what felt like racism against northerners, I disliked the selfrighteous sounding dialogue, And this felt like the setup for a longer series, but I guess that never panned out,

The mystery didn't heat up until the last quarter of the novel, but it did pick up after that mark, The tragedy of an innocent man dying for the lifelong lies of another was just glossed over, It felt wrong. Not all wrongs can be righted by glossing them over or asking a priest/God/your social circle for forgiveness,

I'm not sure someone like Gabby is any kind of a role model, She's so given over to rage and judgemental behaviour, No sane and selfrespecting man would tolerate her level of abuse, I wasn't convinced anyone could fall in love with such a harpy, and at such short notice,

I was really disappointed, I went into this with high hopes, I enjoyed visiting the American South, and I thought there would be some of that flavour in this novel, There really wasn't.

Maybe I'm not the right audience for this novel, since the other reviewers seem to have enjoyed it more than I have, When in radio, the one thing a DJ never wants to happen is dead air it can be the kiss of death of a broadcasting career, But what is is girl to do when she finds a dead body laying in the stations doors, along with another unconscious body,

Dead Air is a read you can't put down and just when you think you've figured out what is going on and who the murdered is, the author throws in an exciting plot twist that you will not see coming!

Thoroughly enjoyable treat.
Sweet. Nice. Actually quite cute. But the mystery part Didn't work for me, I already guessed or rather knew who the culprit was and also why it was done, So, to me it was just a cute romance story with a little mystery thrown in,
