A fun murder mystery set in Venice. ( )

Seventeen year old Jasmine is on an extended stay in Venice, Italy at the start for her senior year in high school. Unforntantly this is not the place she wants to be. She would rather be in the states where she has left her best buds and her boyfriend. Oh Heavens!!

While in Venice she befriends an odd bird of a girl who just happens to get her self killed. The police have decided it is suicide but Jas knows better. Using her sleuthing skills and the
unannounced arrival of her fab friends and not so fab cousins she uncovers the truth with a bit of hijinks and dodging near misses by the killer.

I didn't like the book because I thought it was to predictable 3/5 BS (10th grader) I selected this book because I thought the summary. ( )

Posted to my Livejournal in January 2009:

I loved Bad Kitty and its ridiculously funny plot and characters, so how could I resist a sequel? In this one, Jasmine Callihan has been forced to move to Italy with to her father Dadzilla and step-mother, Sherri! (yes, she spells her name with an exclamation point). While Jas plots out a way to return home to her friends and new boyfriend, she is of course embroiled in another mystery when one of her only friends in Italy is murdered right after confiding to Jas that she is being followed. Like the previous book, the plot is wonderfully ridiculous and the cast of characters (including the return of the Evil Hench Twins) is just as kooky, with Jas and her friends creating more MacGyver-esque spy equipment, speaking to each other in silly footnotes, and engaging in madcap hijinks. These books remind me of Evanovich's Stephanie Plum series for teens, but Jaffe's series has more fast-paced zaniness and uniqueness. ( )

I love love LOVE this series and I wish that Jaffe would write more. Kitty Kitty was hilarious and clever. The footnotes (and chats) make the book even more amusing. I wasn't sure that Kitty Kitty would be as good as Bad Kitty, but I needn't have worried. It was pretty great. ( )
