A Match of Wits: A Book Review

Agatha Watson is a fiercely independent., female writer (writing under a masculine pen name) for a New York newspaper, and is currently trying to keep from being killed.  So, A Match of Wits, begins.  While the story is supposed to be funny, I found the story quite dry and boring and ultra predictable.  It's almost like it's written for a 4th grade level or below.  The plot and intrigue of a mystery wasn't there for me and I had guessed who was responsible for what a couple chapters in to it.

I liked the premise of Ms.Watson and that she was determined to dredge up news that would expose corruption and crime, but the book was entirely too silly for my taste.  Definitely a "light" read, nothing intense or serious.

I received this book from Bethany House non-fiction, book reviewers club.
