My Review:
3 out of 5 stars
Title Wave is the first book I have read by this author, so I have not read the previous books in this series. I feel like this book can stand on it's own though since the characters are described and developed enough that I wasn't really confused about who everyone was. I thought it was really neat that there is a "Cast of Characters" in the front of the book. That proved to be really helpful as well. I liked learning a little bit about Stoneham and enjoyed the descriptions of the cruise setting. A Mystery Lovers cruise was a really neat idea for a book setting and the author described everything well. The reveal of the killer took me by surprise since it was someone that I wasn't suspecting. My only complaint is that I wish there had been a little more sleuthing. I also didn't really like Angelica's character. Tricia was okay for me. *I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
