Grey Areas by Jessica Dall

3 stars
R- 3
language
received for review (older than 2 of my kids... as old as a third.....)

I ended up liking this SO MUCH MORE than I expected.

So why only 3 stars?

Well, it lost a star for general first-novel issues-- needed tightening for sure.

And it lost another entire star for serious overuse of the F word.

I get it, they're the "bad guys".  Having them use the F word every other sentence is a ridiculously not subtle way of proving that.

Overall, though, fun characters and an interesting premise.

(Plus, from what I saw doing some blog-stalking.... I'm willing to bet Jessica Dall has come a long way.  I doubt her later stuff needs tightening.)
