To Read is To Live

Dirty Martini (Jack Daniels Mystery, #4) - J.A. Konrath This series is like crack. After three books of serial killers theme, they are repetitive and tiring. Plus Harry, that obnoxious character, really should be a dead victim someday. AND what's with Jack staying 46 years old for several years?? Is she an immortal vampire? I know that women like to "hide" their age, but this is too much.But still ... I can't seem to stop picking up the books and read them.Yes, Jack is still 46 years old, here in this book. Her boyfriend, Latham, is proposing. Herb, her partner, is resigning. Jack finds out that her father is still alive and the reason for him leaving the family is because he is gay. AND, there is a crazy person who acts revenge to the police department by killing tens of people with deadly chemical.I basically "eat" this book; the pace is fast, and it's action all the way. The bad guy is not really a serial killer, so that's uhm, "nice". And as much as I dislike Harry, the climax with Jack and Harry try to drive away the bomb is pretty thrilling.On side note, I seriously think that J.A. Konrath probably hates Latham, since this guy cannot catch a break!! First time with Jack, he gets kidnapped. Then he gets dumped (when Jack's ex-husband returned). Then he gets shot at. THEN, in this book, he gets poisoned?! Seriously, poor the guy. He should just stay away from Jack. Being with her is deadly!
