A Book in Review: Gone with a Handsomer Man



I just finished reading 'Gone with a Handsomer Man' by Michael Lee West... literally, like 5 minutes ago.  I got this book for my mom as a Christmas gift.  She read it quickly and passed it on to me.  I am glad that she did.  Yes, it is a quick read, but it is fun.  I did not know what to expect, because I had never read one of Michael Lee West's books before.

I do not like when I find out things early on in the book.  In this one, I didn't figure stuff out until just before the book revealed it to me.  I have read that other readers figured out the whole story at the beginning and they were sad about this.  I am glad this did not happen for me.

I believe that I was in the mood for a light read and this did the trick.  I am looking forward to reading other books by Michael Lee West and definitely her sequel to 'Gone with a Handsomer Man' titled 'A Teeny Bit of Trouble'.

If you would like to read a quick and fun Murder mystery, pick up 'Gone with a Handsomer Man'.

3 out of 5 stars, I liked it


Here is a list of Michael Lee West's other novels:

Crazy Ladies
Mad Girls in Love
American Pie
She Flew the Coop
Mermaids in the Basement
Consuming Passions (A food memoir)
