It’s mostly a lesbian love story

I wanted a mystery, which this sort of is with long digressions about two lesbians getting together, but don’t really have much to do with the plot and is really annoying. Lesbians are about 4% of the population. How many people enjoy reading about women, touching, locking eyes feeling things they’ve never felt before their bodies against one another there helping understanding sensitivity —oh for Pete’s sake just get back to the mystery!!!! I wouldn’t want this much blather about a couple of heterosexuals, locking eyes, touching hands, sweating, bodies, blah, blah blah.

Totally unexpected endings for both stories, which makes sense perfectly —but only in retrospect. Completely original. cleverly written with amusing dialogue from distinctive characters.

I liked the story, and I tried to plow through the screaming narrator, but I can’t do it. Please don’t let this narrator do any more of your books. Maybe I’ll read it in Kindle, but this is unlistenable.

I did not know I would like a romance novel until listening to this one! I’m not sure if a man would like it, but I think any woman would. Funny and charming and very romantic. Good plot too.

Good story, kept me interested. I liked the flashbacks to a different story Explaining the protagonists, psychology and behavior. Some of the behavior of certain characters didn’t completely make sense to me, but it was a good enough story that it didn’t really distract.

It’s a fun read. Maybe this is unfair because it is fiction but it’s a little implausible.

Pro; lots of killings

Cons: completely implausible story —even suspending disbelief for the fun of it. It’s almost difficult to follow the plot solely because of how unbelievable it is.

also, white people who know absolutely nothing about Black people should not include them even as tertiary characters. Has the author ever heard of O.J. Simpson? FBI statistics ? It appears not.

Further, authors, who know nothing about human beings should maybe not write at all. A person who has been very very very well framed for a murder he did not commit — a framing, so perfect that it could never be pulled off in real life —, would be shocked and desperately explaining that this was a set up!!! But seeing the wide array of evidence against himself he would NOT just sit back and call the police racist. It would be more like “please! you’ve got to believe me! that wasn’t my heroin. I was never in her room. I don’t know how my DNA got under her fingernails!” NOT “screw, you, crackers.”

And be serious — how many Vermonters go around calling Black people the N-word for no reason, (or even for a reason)? Can we please give this a rest?

The antagonist has supernatural powers, pulling off tricks that even Superman couldn’t — and Superman is an imaginary non-human being. This villain is allegedly human, and he can do even more than leap, tall buildings in a single bound. He’s more like a ghost than a human being. The entire explanation for that is that he’s ex military. Please.

In the climactic scene, the hero, a longtime police detective, who has been on the serial killer’s case for the entire book, holds a gun on the serial killer AS HE IS POINTING A CROSSBOW AT SOMEONE’S HEART. the cop is totally unaware that he’s allowed to shoot in order to protect another human life. Instead, we get a long internal dialogue about how to shoot the serial killer — who, again, is about to murder someone — would be a “cold blooded murder” and would make the cop as bad as the serial killer . Glad this guy isn’t a cop in my town.

Smaller horrors: Why would an author torture readers with an endlessly long description of what a hideously fat old diseased woman’s body looks like, as it is being autopsied? Not fun reading. and it didn’t move the story forward or really have anything to do with the story at all. Just a little digression to torture readers.

Also, maybe don’t include romantic scenes when the audioboo performer might make the characters sound like octogenarians. not an image anyone wants in his head.
