Women Rule, But Has Anyone Told The Men?
Mex is heading for the Edinburgh Festival in search of Legless. Hot on her heels is Beryl a leader who has already dropped Mex in it once and now plans to do so again. Beryl must make contact with Mex before Mex finds Legless; retrieve the spark plug but not Legless, find a way back to Planet Hy Man, without Legless and save her planet. And all before the Edinburgh Festival finishes!
A feat made near impossible when considering her arch-rival Hilda, a woman as ruthless as a politician (and with the same dress sense) has access to every high- tech spying equipment going.
A Rebel Without a Bra is the second in the Planet Hy Man series where every hero is a woman old enough to know better and old enough not to care.
I chose to read this book, because I was reading four books at one time, all of which were a bit too serious. I thought picking this would make reading a little simpler. Who would have thought, that I wouldn’t put it down?
The book is well-written, well-edited, and thought through. However, there is this one thing that kept bugging me, or to say driving me away. This belongs to the category of fiction and fiction takes a lot, I mean ‘A LOT’ to be believed in. For me, it just lacked that. I mean I was intrigued, absolutely, and yet I knew I was reading something and not living it. I know that this is possible, for me at least, but since this book didn’t take me there, I felt a little disappointed.
But Kerrie Noor has done a fair job of executing her thoughts, and bringing humor in. Only I felt like I wanted a little more.
PS: This book was a giveaway from BookHub.
why is is called ‘rebel without a bra’, I was all excited by the title only to be disappointed and to add you say it was not convincing enough. Humor by the way is most difficult to write, so we must give the author some leeway, which I now see you did.
What about the other three?

There are a few references of ‘without the bra thing’ but overall, I know I wouldn’t read it again.
The other three books? Well, I am still reading them and don’t have much to say so far.
By the way where are we the whale?

You’ll have to read it for that, and even I know that is not going to happen till you finish your TBR which might take who knows how long.

I agree with you. I don’t know how but most of the reviews I find, are so full of praises that I wonder how much of it is the truth. However, I couldn’t help but write the truth. If I like the book, I will drool over it’s every aspect, but if I don’t believe in the stuff, I am not the one to to paint wrong colours on it.
