Szczęśliwa siódemka

The book mixes comedy with crime so seamlessly — I wonder how much of that was planned versus developed during writing. Did anyone else find the humor made the stakes feel lighter or more intense?

Her quirky, no-nonsense attitude really stands out, but sometimes I wondered how much of her character was shaped by Evanovich’s own voice. What makes her such a memorable protagonist for others?

The small-town vibe adds so much charm and humor. I'm curious whether the setting was inspired by the author’s own experiences or purely fictional world-building.
