I really like the way this story is written. The characters aren't perfect. They are human and make mistakes. Their relationship with God isn't forced or whitewashed on by the author to make the story a spiritual tome. The twists and turns of the plot really hold your interest. Once again I am sorry to see this series come to an end. So why only 4 stars? I don't know if it is because I am reading this on a Kindle app on my phone or what, but there are an extremely large number of words pushed together without spaces between them. It interrupts the flow of reading to have to stop and say "What was that again?" Probably a programming glitch, but annoying just the same.
Review by Jill WilliamsonJust when we all thought that Bella's life was roses, things start to smell bad. While she's on assignment, covering the circus that's come to town, Bella discovers a dead body. The police make an arrest, but Bella is sure they've got the wrong guy. Then Bella catches her boyfriend kissing his ex! So she focuses on finding the real killer. Only problem, the real killer might be focusing on her!Sigh. I love me a good Jenny B. Jones book. Yes I do. Here's another wild tale of Miss Bella Kirkwood and her charmed life. It made me laugh, it made me cry, and I may have had to lock the door just in case there were any deranged circus performers in my neck of the woods. All in all, a completely satisfying end to this series. Nothing left to do but make everyone else read these books while we wait for Jenny B. Jones' next installment of hysterical teen novels. Hope the wait isn't too long.
I have read all three books in this series and really liked them. I do have to say that there were terrible typos in the Kindle versions of all three books. I also have to admit that the setting of the carnival pushed the farce a little far for me and consequently my rating went down one star but there was still the zany cast of characters I really like. Rating 3.5
I love being inside the heads of her characters. Fascinating dialogue and plot. But the formatting for the kindle version was full of run together words. It made reading difficult. Still Jenny B Jones is one of my favorite authors.
funny, mystery, drama and romance all wrap up in one. The only thing I have bad to say is the series is over. I absolutely enjoyed these series and looking forward to reading more from the author. I love the books I have read so far.
The Carnival has come to town. But Bella gets more than she bargained for when she goes into the trailer of one of the performers for an interview and stumbles across a dead body.So this was definitely my least favorite of the series. Maybe it was just me, but I just didn't think the humor was as good. And the actual mystery wasn't as interesting...and took a back seat to the major love drama throughout the novel. I liked that the other books had more of the "whodunnit" feel, with the relationships being fun added value instead of the main focus.Still, it was a cute, fun read. Bella is a charming main character who is sure to put a smile on your face when reading about her crazy antics.
This series has left me with the need to get a fluffy white cat and a new home right next to cow farm.Jones has ended our adventure with lovable fashion finatic Bella and her mystery solving side job. I must say that it was a brillant novel for this crime stopping, shoe loving, danger magnet chic.The only problems i had with this book were very minor. First i did like the new addition of her new nunchuck wielding friend but after the first two books i was disapointed that Linda was practically non existent. Another thing i found irksome was Luke and Bella not being together. I mean i have been waiting two whole books for their relationship and as soon as the book starts they breakup??Other than those two things i loved this finale. It settled things between Bella and her father, Luke and Bella, and i loved the way things ended with Cheery.I suggest this hilarious novel to all ages. Thank you Jones to adding to your collection of book!
Another wonderfully written book by Ms. Jones! It sums up the Charmed life series really well. I would recommend to teens of all ages. Bella and Luke are the perfect team and you will fall in love with them!
