Summary: Getting better as she goes along
Review: This is the first time I've read anything by Sue Grafton. I see Grafton progressing as a writer. I bought this book no knowing anything about the writer and her A to Q mysteries. I found the first novel - A Is for Alibi a good attempt. I did begin to see Kinsey Millhone as a real person however. Her second novel - B is for Burgler was much, much better. Though she integrated some of the information from A into this novel, it could still be read as a stand alone novel without the reader losing any of the content of the book. C Is for Corpse wasn't as well written, but still a good effort. I plan on reading D through Q, just because I've grown to want to know what lies in store for Kinsey.
Makes me wish I could visit some of Kinsey's regular haunts, like Rosie's, to see the places in person. Grafton makes these places seem so real I can actually picture them as if I'm there. I hope all subsequent novels in the series gives more insight into Kinsey and what she's like and what makes her tick!

Summary: A is for Annoying, B is for Boring, C is for Chafe
Review: This was one of the worst books I've read. I could only choke down A and B. The thought of tring to suffer through C filled me with dread. I thought since she had written so many books she must be a pretty good writer. I was wrong. The ending to the first one cut off abruply. At one point the main character said she didnt like site seeing and then went on for several paragraphs about the sites she was seeing? I had to skip paragraphs at a time to get to the point, the rest was anoying details "His hair was black, his eyebrows were black, his mustache was black" I get the Idea! Just say all of his hair was black, I dont need a blow by blow, I need my imagination to take over at some point.

Summary: Best College-recommended book I've ever known!
Review: Two of my professors recommended (A IS for Alibi" and "B is for Burglar") the books in Sue Grafton's series for their sharp swift reading style and mystery entertainment. "F is for Fugitive" is my family's latest treasure. Each mystery is
entertaining, not formula stuff. Guaranteed to please even
our most picky fans here.

Summary: The best PI ever in a great collection
Review: When Sue Grafton introduced Kinsey Millhone to the world, she was destined for success. I've read every single Millhone mysteries, and they're addictive like chocolate. This collection is a must for anyone who hasn't read Grafton's works, and a definite collector's item for fans.If you've never read a Grafton mystery, you're in for a treat. It's funny, chatty, intriguing and full of suspense. To date, I've never read a character (Kinsey) with such wit and wisdom. If you haven't read Grafton, do yourself a favour, and get this book. You won't regret it.
