It’s hilarious, side-splittingly funny in parts. I was unsure as to whether he and Lizzie were an actual couple, why did Diesel have a very moody monkey called Carl, and who or what is Broom?Īs the book progressed, most of the above became clear, except for Carl, who I must say for a monkey can certainly hold his own in the book. Diesel came and went as he pleased and never seemed to stay still for more than two minutes.

Being the third book, I had obviously missed out on the back-story to the two main characters.Īt first I was baffled as to what was going on. ‘Wicked Charms’ is the first book that I have read in the Lizzie and Diesel Mystery series.
