Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

When I first got this book I thought it was going to be about a murder and a bit of family drama here and there... Well, to be honest the book starts pretty nicely and it goes with the murder and how this police officer deals with things that are going on at home and at work, but suddenly you are reading over 200 pages of extensive, unnecessary, and boring character/background development. Once you get to 75% or so of the book it finally goes back into the "juicy" portion of the story and poof, the book ends. The writing style of this book is extremely frustrating! If you take all of the "I say", "She says", "He says" from the book you probably already have 30% of the pages, no kidding, check my picture! lol Please use quotations!!! The main character is so bland and boring, and honestly it is hard to see a career long police officer being unable to even talk to someone on the phone and so oblivious of what may happen around her. I did enjoy the family portion of the story and the reality of low income areas with the drug epidemic.
