C'est le souci avec la méthode d'écriture américaine, c'est dynamique, bourré d'action, parfois inattendu et avec des rebondissements.

Review of 'Fool Moon' on 'Storygraph'

I enjoyed the story. I still have a bit of a tough time with Harry's "chivalry" but the fact that he fully admits he's sort of a sexist but because he wants to treat a woman well and protect her helps me not want to punch him sometimes.
