Review: While Sunset Beach by Mary Kay Andrews is a good book to pick up and read on a beach during the summer months, it's just an okay read. My two biggest issues were with the main character and with the implausibility of her detective skills. I found the main character annoying and full of herself. She becomes obsessed with solving two murder mysteries but is not a detective or a lawyer or a part of the police force. And she doesn't have any training or experience whatsoever to qualify her to check into these cases. I literally had to roll my eyes at some parts in the book. It's an easy and a fast read, but I wouldn't recommend it.
