Big Bones (Heather Wells Series, Book 3) by Meg Cabot
Publish Date: November 2007
Product Description:
Life is reasonably rosy for plus-size ex-pop star turned Assistant Dormitory Director and sometime sleuth Heather Wells. Her freeloading ex-con dad is finally moving out. She still yearns for her hot landlord, Cooper Cartwright, but her relationship with "rebound beau," vigorous vegan math professor Tad Tocco, is more than satisfactory. Best of all, nobody has died lately in "Death Dorm," the aptly nicknamed student residence that Heather assistant-directs. Of course every silver lining ultimately has some black cloud attached. And when the latest murdered corpse to clutter up her jurisdiction turns out to be her exceedingly unlovable boss, Heather finds herself on the shortlist of prime suspects—along with the rabble-rousing boyfriend of her high-strung student assistant and an indecently handsome young campus minister who's been accused of taking liberties with certain girls' choir members.
With fame beckoning her back into show business (as the star of a new kids' show!) it's a really bad time to get wrapped up in another homicide. Plus Tad's been working himself up to ask her a Big Question, which Heather's not sure she has an answer for . . .
My Review
4.5 out of 5
I love any adult Meg Cabot books since her genre is romantic comedic. In other words, she writes chick reads.
As much as I love Meg Cabot's writing, this character, Heather Wells, I'm not to fond of. How can she justify that her weight and her food choices are healthy? It was a bit annoying to read that it's okay to be overweight and eat "junk" food as well as her stupidity by plunging herself in the most dangerous of situations. However, I do love the murder mystery incorporated in this novel. I also love to read about her relationship with Cooper, her ex-fiancee's brother. I keep hoping that Cooper would realize his feelings for her.
All in all, this final ending to the Heather Wells series is beautifully done. Meg Cabot didn't leave any holes out in the story. A good final completion to Heather's story.
