"Rose reports for Fenton County jury duty and, despite a disastrous encounter with the new assistant district attorney, Mason Deveraux, she's picked as a juror on a murder case. As the trial progresses, she realizes an ominous vision she had in the men's restroom proves the defendant is innocent"--

A Rose Gardner Mystery

Twenty-Nine and a Half Reasons

For Rose Gardner, working at the DMV on a Friday afternoon is bad even before she sees a vision of herself dead. She's had plenty of visions, usually boring ones like someone's toilet's overflowed, but she's never seen one of herself before. When her overbearing momma winds up murdered on her sofa instead, two things are certain: There isn't enough hydrogen peroxide in the state of Arkansas to get that stain out, and Rose is the prime suspect.

No surprise here... but, Denise, you've done it again! I quickly became a huge fan of Denise's after reading Chosen, her action-packed triller. Then after reading Here, her paranormal romance, I was hooked. And here I am again, thrilled to have had the chance to read Denise's mystery novel, Twenty-Nine and a Half Reasons, and I can't say enough good things about it! Denise is quickly becoming one of my very favorite authors.

Rose, the main character, is just awesome. She's adorable and lovable, totally relatable, makes terrible choices at times (actually, most of the time)... but man, she's got guts! She's not scared to do anything if she feels it's right. She drives everyone in her life nuts with her fearlessness, but they just can't help loving her for it all. And honestly, I couldn't help loving her either.

And I would be remiss if I didn't mention Neely Kate Rivers. Really?! She's maybe one of my favorite characters of all time. Love her!!

The story starts off fast and never stops. I was sucked in immediately. I haven't read a huge number of mysteries, but this is definitely one of my favorites. The fact that it's more of a chick-lit mystery novel really had me hooked... and it turned out perfect.

When I got to the last page I thought, "Oh, crappy doodles!" and found myself wishing there was just one more chapter. :) I would absolutely recommend this book. Another 5 star review for Denise!!
