I find these books to be campy and fun. Benjamin Stevenson has a way of making Ernest come across a bit full of himself yet naive. You are surprised by his astute observations once he figures things out because he definitely has a bit of a bumbling detective thing going on. These kind of whodunnit stories are some of my favorites because they really pack a punch and still have a lot of the humor that can be lacking in other thriller/detective stories. Can’t wait to read his next one!
