Historia
Etta Mae is frustrated with her trailer-park life and her no-good family, and she has big dreams for something better. Working as the home nurse for the elderly but wealthy Howard Connard, Sr., she finally sees her chance - with her sexy curves and infectious charm, Etta Mae is determined to become his wife. Unfortunately, Connard's scheming, money-hungry son and stuck-up daughter-in-law are equally determined to make sure she doesn't.

Very Disappointed
Revisado: 10-26-15
Would you try another book from Ann B. Ross and/or Julia Gibson?
Only if Miss Julia's name is in the title.
What was most disappointing about Ann B. Ross’s story?
The overall tone was completely different. I had a hard time getting through it.
What three words best describe Julia Gibson’s voice?
Not Cynthia Darlow
If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Etta Mae's Worst Bad-Luck Day?
All the ones with profanity. It doesn't fit in with this series.

America's favorite senior citizen takes on thieves who've stolen her jewelry. Although it's not the first time they've targeted her small North Carolina town, Miss Julia vows to make it the last. Soon she and her posse rush to Palm Beach for some sun, sand, and a bizarre stakeout. But how can two elderly ladies, a boy, and a tipsy private eye outfox crafty criminals?

Love Ms. Julia
Revisado: 01-23-15
If you could sum up Miss Julia Strikes Back in three words, what would they be?
Funny, southern, and unstoppable
Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?
This was the first Ms. Julia book. I couldn't turn it off. It was so funny, and well written. I couldn't wait to see what happened next.
What does Cynthia Darlow bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Her speaking voice is very easy to listen to, and sounds exactly as I thought prim Ms. Julia would sound. There are no unnatural pauses, or obvious edits.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Ms. Julia's Jewelry is missing...the thieves better hope the cops find them first!
Any additional comments?
Please, please get the rest of this series!

Christmas is coming to Camden Falls, and Flora and Ruby don't know how to feel about it. It's their first Christmas without their parents, and the memories are both happy and sad.

PLEASE RELEASE THE REST OF THE MAIN STREET BOOKS!
Revisado: 10-06-11
Would you consider the audio edition of 'Tis the Season to be better than the print version?
yes and no. I love to hold a book in my hand, but when we drive, or when my girls are in bed, they don't have to stop reading when the lights are out. Also, for my younger child, she can
What was one of the most memorable moments of 'Tis the Season?
Without giving too much away, it is when 3 of the girls decide to make a special Christmas for someone who, without them, Christmas might have been lost forever. It's written in such a special way that shows compassion without pity.
Have you listened to any of Ariadne Meyers’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I have listened to all the Main Street books available at Audible (see title of this post). The best thing, I think you can say about a reader is that she is very consistant. Her pace, characters, and voice quality are consistant, and that leads to a very favorable experience. This is so important when you are dealing with younger children who are not forgiving when someone changes a character's voice from one book to another.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
Christmas in Camden Falls will forever be changed this year, but will it be for the better?
Any additional comments?
I urge all mothers to listen to these books with there tweenagers. Ms. Martin brings up adult themes (bullying, divorce, death, aging, special needs children, race and others) in a sensitive and positive way. These books lead to lively conversations with your children at an age when they might otherwise be tuning you out. It's a great way to see where they stand on issues, without having to ask direct questions. Thank you Ms. Martin! Please, Audible, add the other books in this series!

Even in Grundy, Alaska, its unusual to find a naked guy with a bear trap clamped to his ankle on your porch. But when said guy turns into a wolf, recent southern transplant Mo Wenstein has no difficulty identifying the problem.

Molly Harper, YOU ROCK!!! I have listened to each of her books numerous times, and LOVE each of them. I was afraid to start another series, because I just knew it could not be as good as the first. WRONG-O!
I LOVED this book! I laughed so hard at the Baby Beluga story, my husband hushed me! He will never understand.
Thank you, Molly, for giving a nod to our friends back in the Hollow, and I hope we have not heard our last out of Jane!
I know there is another book coming out very soon, and my finger is on the BUY button! As with all of Molly's books, I was let down when it was over, because I knew it would be some time before I could get another one. Excellent guilty pleasure book!!!
