Manhunter
Manhunter by Janet Evanovich is an okay book. It is a typical romance novel. Girl trades condo in New Jersey for a cabin and hardware store in Alaska. She wants a husband. For some reason, she only finds one man for her. They fall in love, he’s afraid of commitment, she’s ready to start a family. He pushes her away, she stays persistant. Not to ruin it for you, but they end up together in the end. It is a cute story, but makes the main character look weak and not to bright. I hope if a woman moves to Alaska, she actually buys clothes that are fitting for the wilderness, not skirts and stiltettos, etc. This helps add to the stereotype that women are stupid. Grrr!
