The Unfortunate Decisions of Dahlia Moss by Max Wirestone
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Okay, when I first started reading this book, I was a little leery. It’s about gamers. I’m not a gamer and don’t really know the genre but I had to keep reading.
Why? Because it’s so funny and quirky and I wasn’t sure what was going to come next.
Dahlia Moss is an down and out, unemployed girl who has lost her boyfriend. It seems that her life is never going to get better when she is approached by Jonah to investigate the theft of one of his game pieces – the Bejeweled Spear of Infinite Piercing.
Then Jonah winds up dead. The story takes us through her sleuthing to find out who stole the spear. But ultimately, Dahlia also figures out who killed Jonah.
Funny, zany, loved it!
