Cocaine Blues by Kerry Greenwood
3.5
adventurous dark funny mysterious tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

I was a little worried going into this. I knew there was a TV show based on this series, but I've never watched it. The writing is very fast paced, flying through events so quickly that sometimes I had to stop to double check the grammar and sentence structure. There's a fun cast of characters and more diversity than I expected.
Though, I really didn't appreciate the unfortunate  implication that asexual people are amoral, immature, and power hungry.
I don't think I will continue with the series, but I am glad I read it and it was a pretty fun wacky ride.
