gourdfellas

I'd really have to give this 4.5 stars instead of the full 5. I wasn't too impressed by the first book in this series, but I tried the second one anyway. This book was a lot better. Mainly, the book was much faster paced, which I think is essential to a good mystery novel. The first 50 pages are a little sluggish, but the plot picks up from there. The ending was a little predictable, though. We learn more about Lili's family too. I still feel that there is something missing from this book, though. Maybe the gourds are the problem. I personally find any passage dealing with a gourd to be incredibly boring, but that is only my opinion. Other readers will feel differently.
