Have I heard this before?

Revisado: 11-06-24

This book was just released, but I could swear I have listened to this very book before. Is this a re-release? I’m very confused.

Annoying Misandrist!

Revisado: 09-24-24

I thought this book would dive deep into the collapse of the Murdaugh dynasty. It doesn’t. If you have seen any of the true crime specials on this family then you have all the information that you would get from this book. I am over halfway through, but about to quit because I am so sick of her bashing white males. I am a white female and it’s gotten tedious. This book is about the authors life while she is investigating the murders and how much she hates white men, especially of the south. They can’t ALL be bad, but she would have you think so.

It seemed to go nowhere

Revisado: 09-15-24

Full disclosure, I didn’t finish the book, but I listened to many hours of it and it just didn’t seem to go anywhere. The narrator was terrible, she was just very annoying. I will be avoiding her narrations in the future. If I heard her call a boutique a “bowtique” one more time I was going to pull my hair out.

Fantastic thriller!

Revisado: 09-01-24

I am so glad I listened to this book! It’s been sitting in my library for a couple of weeks. I wish I had listened to it as soon as I purchased it! The characters are extremely well developed and the narrators did a great job of bringing them to life. I highly recommend this book!

Get this book!

Revisado: 07-04-24

The first book was going to be a tough act to follow, but the sisters definitely did it! I felt like I was going into it cold as I couldn’t really remember the details of the first book when I first started listening, but they did a great job of filling in with backstory so it was easy to get caught up and sucked in! I loved the direction they took the story. They definitely left me wanting more!

Yawn…

Revisado: 06-26-24

I have really tried to get into this book, but I just can’t. I’ve tried to figure out why because I have enjoyed this author in the past and bought this book w no qualms. I think the problem is the narrator. She is so bland that she’s inhibiting my ability to invest in the characters. The characters feel bland. I tried to return the book, but my determination to push through in hopes of feeling engaged, got me and I’ve listened too long to return. I’m curious for other reviews because I’m wondering, is it just me?

Great historical fiction

Revisado: 11-29-23

I really enjoyed this book. I was drawn in by the characters right from the start. The story was well written. I binged it in a weekend as I found myself just wanting to know what happened next. The narration was perfection as always, with Cassandra Campbell. Definitely recommend!

Best Book Yet!!

Revisado: 08-10-23

I have listened to several Lisa Jewell books and enjoyed them all, but this one is so unbelievably good! To think I almost returned it, because it said it was a full cast with music. I generally don’t like books like that, but this book is done extremely well. I highly highly recommend.

Overhyped

Revisado: 04-11-23

You know when someone tells you you have to see a movie and you go see the movie and you have such high expectations that you’re kind of let down? That’s how I feel about this book. I think it would have been much more entertaining to me, had I not read the glowing review from the audible editor on my weekly audible edit. I enjoyed the book okay, but it was not the thriller I was expecting. I will say I did not see the end coming, that was a fun twist. All in all, OK book but by no means not a can’t-put-it-down book. Narration was great!

I loved this book

Revisado: 04-26-22

When I first started this book, I thought oh no, I’m not going to be able to understand it because one of the readers was very heavily French accented English. I quickly got used to it and equally quickly fell in love with the character. All of the characters in this book are very well developed and I was deeply invested in each of them. This is the first book I’ve read by this author and look forward to future books by her.
