Checkman's Reviews > Skin Tight

What an odd story. It reminded me of Travis McGee in many ways, but an insane version. Normally I don't have an issue with satirical stories, but Skin Tight couldn't seem to decide if it was serious or totally loopy. One or the other, but not both. Mr. Hiaasen seems to have forgotten that old saying about not being able to have ones cake and eat it too. It was just too jarring. So I must say that ,in all in all, I didn't care for the book at all. I know that I should say more, but I simply didn't care for the book. I've heard about Carl Hiassen for years and now that I've finally gotten around to reading him I'm not impressed. I know that one shouldn't go off of one book, but it doesn't bode well.
