To me, Twenty-Nine and a half Reasons was somewhat of a better book than the first one. Granted, when I first finished reading Twenty-Nine I said to myself that the first one was better but after some thought I realized that each book is great in its own way.
I loved Twenty-Nine and a Half Reasons because of the love triangle that Rose has to deal with. Ok, so it’s not really a love triangle but we get to meet Mason Deveraux, a crabby, assistant DA that’s working on the case that Rose just happens to be a juror for. You can tell Mason is starting to more than like her and you can see Rose care about Mason a little, but then that’s when Joe, the boyfriend says he loves her more than life itself and wants her to move to Little Rock. At the same time, her older sister Violet is having what looks like a mid life crisis and breaks up with her husband , Rose is torn between Joe and Violet since Violet thinks she is settling for the first man she has had a relationship with.
While Twenty-Eight and a Half Wishes deals with Rose’s momma’s murder, Twenty-Nine and a Half Reasons has Rose trying to get an innocent man off trial for a murder he didn’t commit
The next book Thirty and a Half Excuses is sure to deal more in depth with Violet and Mike as well as what’s happening between Mason, Rose, and Joe. I can’t wait.
