A review by mistysbookspace
Frozen Stiff Drink by James J. Cudney
5.0
I was sent a copy of this book by the author as I am one of his beta readers so I just want to thank him for allowing me to do this for him.
This is book 6 in his Braxton Campus Mysteries series and while it could be read as a standalone I highly recommend starting with book 1 and working your way through the series because each book mentions things that happened in previous books as well as people who have been in previous books.
I have such a hard time writing reviews for books in general but that’s especially the case when it’s a book I absolutely loved. There’s so much to say but at the same time I can’t say most of it for fear of spoiling things for people who haven’t read it yet.
We know from the synopsis that Nana D disappears and since she is one of my favorite characters in this series I was speedily reading this trying to find out what happened to her. There are things that happened during the search for her that had my heart racing.
There were some side stories going on at the same time and a lot of them brought out several emotions in me. Of course there was all of that with Nana D, then you have the romance (that by the way does not overpower the story) and oh my gosh April was getting on my nerves with how she was handling certain situations and Fox ugh lets just say I can’t stand him. He’s cocky and I can’t believe the way he’s acting especially since he’s just appeared. If you’ve read the story then you know what I’m talking about.
There was of course some humor in here as well and then that ending!!! I immediately messaged James asking him what he thinks he’s doing. It ends on a cliffhanger like he does in every book and while I am not the biggest fan of cliffhangers only because I am impatient and want to know how things are going to turn out not because they are bad I really was blown away by this particular ending. I mean if ever I loved a cliffhanger this is one of those times. As of the time when I am writing this review this book hasn’t even released yet and I am already wanting to get my hands on the next book.
I will end with this. James has done it again. He has written 8 books now and I have loved every single one of them but this is hands down my favorite of them all. If you haven’t started this series or read any of his books yet you really are missing out.
