Summary: Another Great Pleaser!
Review: Sue Grafton has the touch. I'm not into heavy mysteries but she strikes just the right chord for readers who don't want to get too bogged down with confusion and puzzles. Kinsey Milhone is a gal most of us can relate to. She's a woman we call friend in another entertaining and interesting problem to be solved. I've read all the ABC mysteries and will stay with Sue Grafton to the end of the series! I recommend you do the same!

Summary: Each letter gets better!
Review: Sue Grafton really starts to hit her stride by this book. This is a really terrific book - another in a great series!It is interesting to see Kinsey growing and learning. She may have a blaise attitude about a lot of things, but she is learning to appreciate life and friends.

Summary: Secrets, suspects, and schemes.
Review: Sue Grafton's books are so GOOD that she makes mystery writing look easy. But it's not, she's just excellent at what she does. "F" takes Kinsey Millhone out of town to solve a 17-year-old murder case, and she's soon up to her ears in decades-old clues and crimes. One of the things Grafton does best is to create vivid and realistic communities of people. "F" is a great example of this--each character we meet is interesting, complex, AND has interactive relationships with other characters we've met. Everyone's connected, and when Kinsey solves the mystery, it makes sense because it FITS the characters. My only (minor) complaints are that I missed the usual cast of characters (especially that Hungarian-type woman at the bar where Kinsey eats) and that Grafton indulges in a little moralizing at the end, which seemed heavy-handed.

Summary: Did not like this one very much
Review: The only character I really liked in this one was (wink) the Reverend H. Had good possibilities. The plot is good towards the end - when the investigation really picks up. Overall, not so good a story - still, once you have read one Kinsey, you have got to read every single one ... and that's the truth. So read it, and enjoy whatever you get out of it. Better than the Rendells etc. anyday.

Summary: F IS FOR FUGITIVE
Review: This is yet another kick ... private eye novel by Sue Grafton. Kinsey is full of surprizes and the end will shock you. BEWARE there is another review that gives away the murderer, dated 5 Dec 2002. Even after reading who done it first the book was still good and worth reading. I just wanted to warn readers about review that gives it all away.

Summary: F is for Fugitive
Review: This was my first book read by Sue Grafton. It was a pretty well written book, not too difficult and easy to understand. I thoroughly enjoyed the plot line of the story. Kilsey Millhone was a very curious private detective that was investigating the murder of Jean Timberlake, because her last boyfriend Bailey Fowler was convicted of the murder and was actually sent to prison. He had just recently escaped from prison because he could not stand being in prison because he knew his innocence. The twist of the novel was pretty interesting but I kind of guessed what was going to happen before it actually happened. Ann Fowler, Bailey's sister, was the real murderer because she could not stand how their father and everybody was ignoring her and putting all there attention into him, so she decided to do something about that. Not only that, Ann suspected that Jean was also sleeping with a man that Ann wanted all to herselves. This was basically all soap opera style where people were sleeping with each other and apparently Jean was pregnant, but the father was not known. Overall, this was an interesting book, which I would recommend somebody to read if they are into stories involving private investigators.

Summary: You can safely skip this one
Review: You don't miss much if you miss this one. Kinsey is sure one shallow and bitter person...especially about Religion. Makes me wonder whatever happened to Sue Grafton to turn her off so...we're not all that bad...
