I read Pocket Dial when it was BOTD. I was not that impressed with the book and rated it 2 out of 4 stars. I was hoping Toxic Side Effect would be an improvement. Well, Sandy can always cry, I mean try, again.

Yes, it’s astonishing how two different people can take away completely different opinions of a book.
I was surprised to see other a 4 out of 4 on the BOTD. Thanks for posting :tiphat:

Based on the review, Sandy Magner's "Toxic Side Effects" was an okay read with very few grammatical errors. However, I enjoy realistic and fast-paced crime novels that have more twists and turns. Therefore, I will probably pass on Magner's book. Thanks for the honest review!

Please do, it’s always interesting to know what other people think.
I will. First, I have to finish Hardcore Twenty-Four by Janet Evanovich. That one is a library book, and I'm about half through. But I should get to it in few days. :)
I guess I forgot to come back to say I agree with your 2 stars!
