Chronicle As Books Big Boned (Heather Wells #3)
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 shortlist 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 . . .

Big Boned is book 3 in the Heather Wells Mystery. This series is so funny. Heather is the administrative assistant in "Death Dorm" aka Fischer Hall. Seriously, how many people can die in one dorm?As Heather finds out, at least one more. This time it is her new boss, Owen and with a bullet to the head, at close range. Owen wasn't well liked and there are a lot of suspects one is a friend of her grad assistant Sarah, who is fighting with the President for rights for the student workers.AnotherSpoiler Alert! Im sorry, I cant talk about this book without giving away some major details. After reading the first two books in the series, I had mixed feelingsbut I was really enjoying the third entry until the last few pages. What really, really disappointed me was the fast-forward of Heather and Coopers relationship. Yes, I wanted to see them end up togethereventually. Heathers been crushing on Cooper for roughly a year but theyve just been friendsroommates, yes, but just friends. She
I was so excited to finally read this book! Im a huge fan of the Heather Wells mysteries, and I couldnt wait to see what one of my favorite heroines had in store for me this time. I must say that it was better than I expectedSo, the last wed heard from Heather, she had just met her remedial math teacher who turned out to be a hottie. Now, in Big Boned, remedial math teacher Tad is now Heathers boyfriend! Which is totally forbidden, since its against the rules for teachers to date students.
Even though Big Boned is pretty much the same book as the first two books in the Heather Wells series (Size 12 Is Not Fat and Size 14 Is Not Fat Either), it's still a fun, fast read. Heather, a former teen pop star and now assistant residence hall director at the fictional New York College's Fischer Hall, tries to solve the dormitory's third (or maybe fourth, I've lost track) murder to occur in the year she's worked there, while at the same time figure out what to do about what seems to be a
I did not know this was the third book in the series. Hopefully 1 and 2 were much better than this one, because I found it ridiculous. The main character Heather is so annoying. She has a boyfriend, a crush and Cooper who are all dying to be with her and all she does is complain about her size. The romance with the cafeteria lady and security guard was silly. The murder mystery, murderer, solving the mystery and ending of the book were all dumb. I will not be reading a book by Meg Cabot again.
This is probably my least favorite book in the series so far. I thought the mystery was a little formulaic and I didn't really love the ending. There was a progression in the main relationship that seemed very sudden and random to me. But I still had fun while reading this and look forward to reading the next book.
I'm loving all the books in the Heather Wells series!"Is your boss in? Because I think we'd better speak to him.""Well," I say. "That's going to be hard.""Why, for heaven's sake?" Brian wants to know."Because he got shot in the head yesterday," I reply.Brian flinches. But Mr. Rosetti just nods."It happens," he says, with a shrug.
