Customer Reviews
Fast-paced, holds interest, fun, quick read
From the onset, this book pulled me in and held me to the end. I enjoyed the main characters, the mystery, the fast pace. For a short, easy, enjoyable read, I definitely recommend “State of The Onion”
State of the onion
The book was a fun easy read...the secondary story had a card board nemesis which lowered the quality of the book. The main characters were likable and it was interesting to read about the White House kitchen.
Really great mind candy
Great mystery keeps you interested without being taxing but eat first because there is constant talk of food
