A big, fat, resounding nope, I managed to get through 21% and gave up. As if it wasn't bad enough that the author managed to put down the Buffalo area by labeling it as, "bitter cold for most of the year" (it's not.) but the whining got old very quickly. Yeah, I get it, your husband cheated on you with the town bitch and you're a klutzy, chubby Italian girl that melts everyone's heart. But reiterating that on every damn page makes for a crap book. As if that wasn't bad enough, all of her friends and family constantly gave her pained looks and sympathetic pats because life is soooooo terrible because said no-good-louse-of-a-cheating-husband is a no good louse of a cheating husband and well, you get the point. Unfortunately, it was the town bitch who got bumped off. I'm surprised no one thought to poison the MC's cookies. (No, that's not a euphemism.)

DNF, zero stars and a PLUNK as it lands in the trash basket. If I could rate this lower than zero stars for mocking my beloved WNY, I would.
