Another party with games and a little suspense as the characters try to leave titles and gossip behind and have fun. The escapades are many.

I actually rather enjoyed this book-right up to the very last page.When what to my wondering eyes did I see? A cliffhanger.The most grubby, money-hungry device an author has at their disposal.The idea is supposed to be that by the point you discover it is a cliffhanger, you are so engrossed in the story, you can’t possibly not buy the next one.For some however - me for example - it has a different result. It makes me angry, and irritated, and I add that author’s name to a list of likeminded grubby authors, whose books I will never buy again. Thereon, is this author’s name.

This series had me laughing and smirking all the way through. Great series.
