Rating: Summary: Wonderful mystery filled with humor! Review: I expect a great book when I see Katy Munger is the author, but I'm always surprised at just how good the books are. The Casey Jones series is a first-day-rush-to-the-book-store and grab the next book in the series for an evening's entertainment, and you might as well block off the entire evening, because you won't be able to put this puppy down. :) I thought Legwork was fantastic, but each book in this series is better than the last. Better Off Dead is a carefully plotted, thrilling mystery populated by colorful characters, and the star, Casey Jones, is my idol. The only bad thing about Better Off Dead was I finished it so quickly; however, I do plan on making up for that by reading it again soon.If you enjoy great writing, a suspenseful plot and several good laughs per book, then this book is for you.
Rating: Summary: Casey just gets better and better! Review: I have read and loved all of the Casey Jones series by Katy Munger. They just get better all the time. If you have not read these books, start at the beginning and read them in order. Casey is a wonderful character, truly original and the books are hard to put down. Wonderful, lighthearted and funny!!
Rating: Summary: Better Off Read Review: I liked this one even better than Bad to the Bone. Casey goes back to school, undercover, to save a terrified crime victim from her attacker. Casey is tough but she seems to have a big heart. I love the supporting cast, Bobby D., Marcus, and Casey's way of looking at things.

Rating: Summary: Casey is the best! Review: Smart, randy, funny and big-hearted, Casey Jones is my favorite P.I. Munger's writing is a joy to read, like listening to a friend tell a story... she tackles difficult issues without mawkishness. Her humorous tone packs a real wallop. Casey is fun to read, but makes you think.

Rating: Summary: Better and Better! Review: The Casey Jones books are a gem that I savor -- while reading as fast as I can! Casey is a no-nonsense, take-no-prisoners PI in North Carolina. Her boss can't stop eating Little Debbie cakes, and her boyfriend can't stop Casey from doing what she wants to do. In this book, a string of rapes on a college campus results in Casey having to go undercover as a college student. Meanwhile, her whole group of crazy friends moves into a victim's house and sets up an adult frat-house. At times, Casey is the sanest of the lot. Katy Munger has the wit of a Janet Evanovich or a Harlan Coben -- with the hard-boiledness of a Robert Crais or an SJ Rozan. But Casey Jones is her own woman, and she gets better and better with every book (as does Katy Munger). Pretty amazing, for an author who was excellent to start with!
Rating: Summary: Gutsy and skillful Casey Review: This is the 5th book in the series.Casey goes undercover in this one and has fun doing it. In this one, you want to join the fight in finding the person, who hurt Helen. And Casey gets a lot of help in this one with the wonderful, hilarious and resourceful regular characters from the previous CJ books, and with a couple of extra new ones characters too. Superb book!!
Rating: Summary: Very Entertaining Review: This was the first of the Casey Jones books that I read. I had to go back and read all the others!! She's funny and in-your-face. I can't wait till the next book comes out!!
