Funny!

Review from 15 Minutes →

There are times when I need a few good laughs with a book and I had more than a few with Maizie and everybody else in 15 Minutes. The premise of a young actress, a former teen reality star, being effectively sentenced to get a new life is unique and the author made the most..

Fun Cozy Mystery!

Review from 15 Minutes →

Some narrators have cringe-worthy interpretations of the material and/or annoying voices. This narrator depicts Maizie just as I invision her…

I didn’t finish this book. I didn’t like the characters and couldn’t force myself to finish the book. Although Maize seems like she is trying to be a mature adult, she has a weak personality and is very immature.
