Sybil Van Antwerp has throughout her life used letters to make sense of the world and her place in it. Most mornings, around half past ten, Sybil sits down to write letters—to her brother, to her best friend, to the president of the university who will not allow her to audit a class she desperately wants to take, to Joan Didion and Larry McMurtry to tell them what she thinks of their latest books, and to one person to whom she writes often yet never sends the letter.

Perfect performance
Revisado: 05-02-25
I know several people are turned off by this format for writing but it really worked and made this book special. It was the best way to get to know each character. The performance was outstanding.

Read it in a day
Revisado: 08-21-24
Fast paced and was drawn on the first page so to speak. Could not put it down or pause in this case. Author did a great job in refreshing my memory of details from book one. Could be enjoyed as a stand alone but why would you when book one is equally as good. If you like The Gray Man series, this series is for you.

Refreshing. NOT the same old same old enemies to lovers trope. Lovable characters. Satisfying ending.

Riverside Close is a picture-perfect community. The six exclusive and attractive houses are tucked far away from the noise and grime of city life, allowing the residents to enjoy beautiful gardens, pleasant birdsong, and tranquility from behind the security of a locked gate. It is the perfect idyll, until the Kentworthy family arrives, with their four giant, gas-guzzling cars, gaggle of shrieking children, and plans for a garish swimming pool in the backyard. Obvious outsiders, the Kentworthys do not belong in Riverside Close, and quickly offend every last one of the neighbors.

Best book in the series!

I did not want this book to end. My only complaint is that in a 34 hour long book. It is difficult to recall all the characters and what their relationship was to the plot of this book.

Fun Read
Revisado: 03-02-23
There should be more books like this. Refreshing to see women portrayed as something other than victims or as a princess in a romance novel. Loved the humor in writing about women’s issues as well as age issues. Five star read for me. It was like the Golden Girls meet The Gray Man.

Very entertaining. I don’t think this book would be as good in print as it is an audio.

A decade-old cold case—their favorite kind--leads them to a local news legend and a murder with no body and no answers. Then a new foe pays Elizabeth a visit. Her mission? Kill or be killed. Suddenly the cold case has become red hot.

Loved it!

This was my favorite book in the series. Narrator was spot-on. Loved The quirky characters and of course the British sense of humor. The story was jampacked with absurd and quirky situations. Highly recommend it for anyone.

He dreams of glass towers and cityscapes, driven by his desire to be anywhere other than Jessup, Missouri.
