I have largely given up reading this style of book anymore, I wasn't enjoying them, but actually this one I did enjoy. Yes, it was all of the usual stuff predictable, fairly basic characters whose ending you could spot a mile off but it was fun too. It does bring the Lucky Santangelo story to an end I think and I've enjoyed dipping into that over the years. All the Lucky characters are here still - Lennie, Gino, Venus, Alex and her children are growing up bringing some new stories into the mix. Lucky is building a mega hotel in Vegas and the story covers the problems she has with that, her headstrong (wonder where she gets that from) daughter and her search for love and the still bitter rivalry between Lucky and the latest in the line of Bonatti's who try to stop her.
It does all come to an impressive conclusion, in Vegas, of course - a fun summer read and an enjoyable guilty pleasure.
