So I understand this is supposed to be a "humorous chick lit" but it opens with an SA scene and spouts the words - dyke, slut, hooker, bitch etc - and I couldn't push through.
It's a really dumb version of Legally Blonde and Police Academy.
I also wish the main character did NOT share my name.

Enjoyable

I loved this book. The main character, Chanel is lovable and she treats everyone the same way i.e. not to judge. Even though it is a work of fiction, it is quite realistic . A great read! ( )

I liked the humour and the thought of Cocoa as a police dog ( )

Chanel makes the excuse of joining the police force to stop her boss’s husband from forcing her into an affair. After she said it, the lie gained momentum, her entire small town thought she was joining the police.

So, of course, she applied and was accepted. At Police Training she discovered she really wanted to be a police officer, to make a difference.

Assigned to King’s Cross station she sees her first dead body and learns there is a serial killer; a serial killer who targets prostitutes.
But as Chanel keeps saying “prostitutes are people too”; she wants to get justice for these women. She begins her own investigation of the crime scenes …

Fun, cozy mystery with drag queens and a Mum that decides to shed her Mum image. The plot is believable, the characters are slightly enhanced to the eccentric. I enjoyed it! ( )

The character reminded me a lot of Elle Woods from Legally Blonde. To get out of a bad situation at work, Chanel somehow ends up joining the New South Wales’ Police Force. This book is a good combination of a chicklit, cozy mystery, and comedy rolled into one. The perfect type of book to take the beach to read on a sunny day. ( )
