Nature Girl is the latest Carl Hiaasen novel, and once again we have the usual set of misfits and ne’erdowells. The novel mainly takes place amongst Florida’s 10,000 Islands in the Everglades. The story is the usual complex affair of inter-twined happenings that, unlikely though it may be, all manage to be in the same place at the same time.
There’s not a great deal else to say really. I’m not going to pretend that this is Hiaasen’s best novel of recent years, but then it’s not exactly his worst either. It’s a little like he’s on autopilot, but that’s not a terrible thing. There’s plenty of enjoyment to be had here.
