Based on a True Story by Sarah Vaughn

 

So dumb.

Murder Takes a Vacation by Laura Lippman

 

Fun.

Insane City by Dave Barry

 

Lots of fun.

Blackman's Coffin by Mark de Castrique

 Solid.

Social Animals by Camille Perri

 

Basically solid, and I appreciated a sort of unusual plot twist as well as an excellent twist at the very end. However, it seemed like it couldn't quite decide whether it was a farce (see: the gala) or more serious (see: issues faced by characters).

Obstetrix by Naomi Kritzer

Very solid. There was some dimension missing stopping it from being fantastic; it felt somewhat predictable.
