Rating: Summary: A Really Fun Read Review: I enjoyed this book so much I will buy the rest of hers.
Rating: Summary: This is the first book from this author I have read. Review: I loved the story line, I just wish the ending had more oomph ! like the rest of the book did.I thought the ending just fizzeled out and I was alittle disappointed. I loved the characters and the plot of the book, I just wish the ending would have had more "bang" to it.
Rating: Summary: Murder, Mayhem and Mandy Review: This is another solid effort by Dolores Johnson. It is not, by the way, a "sink your teeth into", heavy suspense kind of book. Like all the others in this series, it is a fast-paced and light mystery involving an amateur sleuth/dry cleaner owner who keeps running into murder victims one way or the other. Who knew the dry cleaning business could be so adventurous? The thing that I like about this series is that Mandy and her friends are quirky, but likeable. In fact, I like this cast of characters better than most other mystery series out there. What I do not like is there is a tendency for predictability. This particular book and Mandy's detective work just got way too predictable and the ending . . . well, I won't go into the ending, but anyway, still a worthy read if you enjoy "cozy" mysteries. Not much explicit language in this series, which I appreciate, but there are a few occurrences of it in this book. If you have not read any books from Dolores Johnson, I highly recommend starting from the beginning of this series - "Taken to the Cleaners" is a great book.

Rating: Summary: Enjoyable ..... Review: This is the first book I've read by this author, and while I enjoyed it, like another reviewer, I thought the ending fizzled. I would have liked to have seen how some of the relationships that were formed in the book were settled. I will, however, read more of her books. I enjoy murder mysteries that aren't heavy and scary and full of foul language, and this one fit the bill.
