Oreo Teeth reviewed The scam by Janet Evanovich (Fox and O'Hare -- 4)
Review of 'The scam' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
I've had a lot of good fun with the Fox and O'Hare series in guilty pleasure style, so when NetGalley offered me the chance to request an ARC I jumped at the opportunity to get a pre-release copy of The Scam.
While I did have fun with this book, there's just something a little bit off about this one. It takes itself a bit more seriously than the previous 3 books in the series did. There is less playful banter and sexual tension, more focus on the plot. There isn't enough gritty procedural detail for this approach to really work. If you're a fan of the series you might also find enough to like, but here's hoping the next installation brings back the humor.
