Publisher's summary

Life is reasonably rosy for plus-size ex-pop star turned assistant dormitory director and sometime sleuth Heather Wells. Her freeloading ex-con dad is finally moving out. She still yearns for her hot landlord, Cooper Cartwright, but her relationship with "rebound beau", vigorous vegan math professor Tad Tocco, is more than satisfactory. Best of all, nobody has died lately in Death Dorm, the aptly nicknamed student residence that Heather assistant directs.

Of course every silver lining ultimately has some black cloud attached. And when the latest murdered corpse to clutter up her jurisdiction turns out to be her exceedingly unlovable boss, Heather finds herself on the short list of prime suspects - along with the rabble-rousing boyfriend of her high-strung student assistant and an indecently handsome young campus minister who's been accused of taking liberties with certain girls choir members.

With fame beckoning her back into show business (as the star of a new kids' show!), it's a really bad time to get wrapped up in another homicide. Plus Tad's been working himself up to ask her a Big Question, which Heather's not sure she has an answer for.

Lighthearted Murder Fat Jokes Comedy

It's probably the worst book I've listened to here and not returned. I bought on a 2 for 1 credit deal so returning was not an option. Suffered through the endless bad fat jokes and insufferable murder comedy routine. It was like a murder mystery/stand up comedy club after 1AM. If breezy, lighthearted murder-humor-romance is your bag, this one is for you.

Immature and unpolished

I stopped after chapter 5. I could listen any more. It felt like I was listening to the writings of a middle schooler. And honestly, it presented as slightly offensive for those who may struggle and weight and food - I’m quite sure they would have more to say than ruminate over waffles they way Heather does.

Fun

I thoroughly enjoyed this audio book. It was intriguing enough to keep me interested while recovering from spinal surgery but not frightening.
