All that said, and with the acknowledgement that the plot was implausible to say the least, this was a really fun read. Brenda is plucky, clever, and determined. She's also very lucky, which propels the plot and helps solve some dilemmas and situations within.
The writing is well suited to the genre, the characters are interesting and work well together, the dialogue is generally solid, and the setting in New York City is a lot of fun. There's also genuinely amusing situations and a lot of New York City panache to go with them.
As light reading, this is a great book. ( )
