Everywhere That Mary Went

By Lisa Scottoline

‘What fun! Lisa Scottoline brings something new to the lawyer-mystery – a brilliant sense of humor. Grabs you with its intelligence, wit and energy and doesn’t let go.’ Susan Isaacs

Mary DiNunzio has been slaving away for the past eight years to make partner in her cut-throat Philadelphia law firm. She hasn’t got time to worry about crank phone calls and hate mail – until a sinister pattern begins to form: someone wants Mary out of the way enough to kill her. But who can she trust when everyone she knows is a lawyer?

Taut, tense, fast-paced and funny, Everywhere That Mary Went was Lisa Scottoline’s first novel and earned her a nomination by the Mystery Writers of America for an Edgar Award, the equivalent of an Oscar in the suspense business.

Great characterization and depth. Story was a little thin. I had a hard time concentrating on the "mystery" because I cared more about the individuals. But all in all a fun read that went very quickly. I'm going to enjoy reading the rest of this series I believe.

Very good mystery! Little cliff hanger at the end!! Liked the characters and just overall really enjoyed the book! Can't wait to read/listen to the rest of her books!!

It was interesting to read about the early career of Mary, especially since I was exposed to her career later in her professional life. Not as well written as the later books, but enjoyable. I'm curious to see which of the associates is brought into the later books.

I enjoyed reading this book. It was a quick, easy book to read and I didn't guess who the stalker was. I liked the main character.

I was going along with the whole story - despite the useless pop culture references from the early 1990s - right up until the killer is revealed. What an idiotic climax. I won't be reading the rest of the books in this series.

Marvelous! What else do you need to say but that it’s by Lisa Scottoline. Doesn’t matter if it’s Rosato & Associates, Rosato & DiNunzio, standalone thriller or humorous non-fiction, you know before you pick it up that it will be terrific and totally satisfying. Going back to the beginning of her books, reminds me why I was right to choose her as my favorite author.

I was extremely disappointed in this book. The plot was decent, but the characterizations and the dialogue were, at times, cringeworthy. I know that it was a first novel so I suppose I should be a little more lenient in my criticism, but how in the hell was this a finalist for an Edgar?For one thing, I like smart women characters, not characters who put themselves and others in danger because they might not make partner otherwise. What the hell was that? And jumping into bed with Ned was just weird. She acts like a prude one second and then shacks up with a weirdo the next. Not to mention the eff bombs that seemingly came out of nowhere. I did not like Mary at all. So, no more Scottoline for me!
