Good completion of the series

Revisado: 12-22-24

As the last of the 3 sisters enters the Time Stitch, she finds her adventure begins more than a hundred years before her own Victorian Era. Although the protagonist’s views on relationships are unrealistically advanced, that can be overlooked & the story brings a satisfying end to the series.

Not one of her best

Revisado: 12-22-24

In this Robin Hook fan fiction, one of the sisters replaces Lady Marion as Hood’s love interest. That’s a good basis for this series, however, the scenes wherein differences between genders are discussed are filled with so much political correctness that I found myself laughing at what were supposed to be serious scenes. The lovemaking scenes were especially cringe-worthy, unless you are seeking a sex-ed class. Had I not already purchased the next book in this series, this one would have been my last. However, I’m glad I did, as the next book is better (even though the protagonist’s views on sex are still laughably forward thinking,)

Gets Better!

Revisado: 08-06-24

At first, I thought this was going to be a boring YA level romance, filled with “Oh, my…how different women dress in your time!” references, but then the mystery began to unfold with lots of unanswered questions and suspects. My interest grew with each chapter. As long as you aren’t too critical about the time travel specifics, this is a good mystery with a satisfying ending.

Fun Cozy Mystery

Revisado: 08-19-23

This is the first book in a lighthearted, cozy mystery series. Although it's pretty easy to spot the villain early in the book, and the sheriff's crime-solving abilities are questionable, it was a fun read and I'm looking forward to spending more time reading about this quirky haunted hotel.

The only good thing about this book was the narrator's performance

Revisado: 08-19-23

This book started off with promise... a mystery about crooked dealings in the competitive bass fishing world. Unfortunately, with every chapter, the characters and situations became more ludicrous until the unsatisfying end, where almost everything was left unresolved. The narrator did a good job and has a voice that's easy to listen to.

Imaginative & entertaining

Revisado: 07-24-23

I enjoyed this fantasy and its interesting take on how magic enters and works in the world. The ending is open to new adventures, should the author choose to write more stories for Bridget, but if not, the ending is satisfying as is.

Good dramatic series

Revisado: 05-03-23

This series reminds me of James Patterson’s Alex Cross series… good crime mysteries with lots of family & community involvement, as well as a healthy dose of compassion, history, and wisdom about the Native American population. Good book!

Mystery, deception and magic… what’s not to like?

Revisado: 02-02-23

I like Mann’s writing style and character development. He tends to be a bit too callous with regard to getting readers to like characters & then killing them off, but otherwise, good story-telling. I felt a bit like the first story wasn’t finished when the book ended (one of my pet peeves) but I’ll take a gamble & get the second book. IMO, every book in a series should be written as a standalone, with just a teaser at the end to carry you into the next storyline. This book did not resolve anything… more like a two-part book. That’s quite unsatisfying. It was, however, interesting enough that I’m willing to give it one more try…

Syrupy Sweet

Revisado: 10-28-22

Easy read, but super predictable & the characters are so syrupy sweet that diabetics should use caution when listening!

A Book of Muted Conflicts

Revisado: 10-22-22

In an incredibly hard to imagine set of circumstances, a babysitter begins dating the ex HS boyfriend of her boss. Each character keeps their thoughts to themselves and reconstructs events from the past to make themselves feel better, except one little girl, who says whatever is on her mind. It was difficult to cheer for anyone except the little girl, and the end of the book doesn’t provide a satisfactory end for her. An “ok” listen, but I wish the story ended further in the future, with better eventual outcomes for Ximera & Briar.
