A somewhat humorous book that reminded me of Janet Evanovich's books, only a little more serious. I knew how the book was going to end, although I didn't know how Cosimano would get there. The novel was entertaining and would make a good beach read. (

A fun first in a series of a writer who finds herself involved in a situation that becomes a successful story for her writing career. Full of turns and twists with a surprise ending. Goodreads: Finlay Donovan is killing it . . . except, she?s really not. She?s a stressed-out single-mom of two and struggling novelist, Finlay?s life is in chaos: the new book she promised her literary agent isn?t written, her ex-husband fired the nanny without telling her, and this morning she had to send her four-year-old to school with hair duct-taped to her head after an incident with scissors.When Finlay is overheard discussing the plot of her new suspense novel with her agent over lunch, she?s mistaken for a contract killer, and inadvertently accepts an offer to dispose of a problem husband in order to make ends meet . . . Soon, Finlay discovers that crime in real life is a lot more difficult than its fictional counterpart, as she becomes tangled in a real-life murder investigation.Fast-paced, deliciously witty, and wholeheartedly authentic in depicting the frustrations and triumphs of motherhood in all its messiness, hilarity, and heartfelt moment, Finlay Donovan Is Killing It is the first in a brilliant new series from YA Edgar Award nominee Elle Cosimano.

The first chapter of this book was a struggle for me. It was your classic "single mother with a terrible ex-husband" set-up, and not very well done. I put a 3 chapter cap on the book improving and moved on. I didn't even get halfway through Chapter 2 before the author straightened things out. Fun, fun book that made me laugh out loud a few times, and I'm looking forward to the next one. (

I wasn't sure about Finlay at first since it is a extreme book but the humor of her and her people grew on me (
