Just a fact : I red it in one evening. I was not able to stop reading. I was in love with Lily Bard in the first book. Well, she is doing karate like me, so it helps a lot ;), and I love Charlaine Harris. She keeps her books simple, easy to read, but unforgettable. 
 The second of the Lily Bard serie is more... mysterious. The detective bring something different, like you do not know if she is doing the right thing or not. But at the end, you hate some of the characters you were in love with and ''vice-versa''. Shakespeare is a little city and I live in a little city so I recognized some way to live and I smiled a couple of times. 
 So, I want to recommend this book to anyone, especially the Harris lovers like me.
