 | The Bernini Bust (Art History Mystery) |
 | "Tedious and not-credible, I reckon." | 2006-07-22 |
This author came highly recommended, but what a disappointment. The plot was difficult to follow and, ultimately, not at all credible, and the writing is labored and sprinkled with contrived passages which are intended to be amusing. Most aren't. But the worst thing about the book is the author's incessant use of the term "I reckon." I don't know where he picked this term up, but obviously he loves it as it appears in dialog every few pages. He should drop it.
