From the review, Crimeline Hollywood , looks like an interesting book filled with humor and suspense . It involves an astrologer Dash who has an encounter with a hitman and so he flees for security to a small town to continue with the astrology but when his most famous client is kidnapped he comes to help. I'm in love with the book since it seems interesting, though the reviewer has said that it has lengthy chapters I don't mind.

A mix of suspense and humour sounds just like the thing for me. I am not too worried about chapter length, as long as the pace of the book is good. I am ready to find out about the mystery and codes.

Thomas Collins immerses readers in the crazy and chaotic realm of Hollywood's underbelly with his gripping and clever story Crimeline Hollywood. The humor caught my attention the most; it's a real standout. The main character, Dash Harwood, is hilariously self-deprecating and refreshingly self-aware. His astute insights on the conceited and frequently absurd Hollywood elite give the novel a delightfully funny depth.

What an engaging and well-rounded review! I love how you highlighted the perfect balance of suspense and humor, especially with Dash's interactions with his GPS, which sounds like a fun twist in the middle of the tension. Your comment on the short chapters being slightly choppy shows your attention to detail while still appreciating the fast-paced plot. It's clear that this book really captivated you, and your enthusiasm makes it hard not to want to dive right into Crimeline Hollywood! :tiphat:

Suspense and humor in a book is a great blend that I will want to read. I would like to know why Dash is hunted down. Congratulations to the author.

Thomas Collins' "Crimeline Hollywood" follows astrologer Dash Harwood, who must team up with a self-absorbed P.I. to decipher coded ransom messages and save his client Sparklynn. I would love to read more of this book.

This novel seems like an exciting mix of humor and excitement, with a novel idea of an astrologer sucked into an abduction probe. a variety of tense scenes, including the fast-moving vehicle pursuit. Congrats on BOTD.

A personal highlight of the book was the mix of suspense and humor. For example, during the car chase at the beginning, Dash is fighting with Nigel, his GPS, the entire time. Poor Nigel recalculates each time Dash makes a wrong turn to save his life. Little details like the characters bickering with technology add moments of lightheartedness and humor to juxtapose the suspense of the kidnapping. I love it when books can leave me laughing out loud while frantically reading to find out if they can solve the case in time.
- I love that feeling too. It leaves one wanting more. A very good tactic to get the book read. Even though the book chapters being short were disliked, I liked that the review was short and sweet. Thank you.

Crimeline Hollywood is a suspenseful novel that starts out with Dash Harwood being chased by a hitman in a chase. It is a lovely novel and worth being the BOTD.

Will they be able to find Sparklynn in time? Will the hitmen catch up with Dash? I will endeavor to comb this book to find out answers to these questions. I will find and read "Crimeline Hollywood" by Thomas Collins.

Crime thriller is a personal favourite genre. Addition of humour will make this an interesting read for me. I also look forward to seeing how the author builds up the Code breaker cum astrologer’s character.Thank you for the review.
