genius narration

Revisado: 11-19-24

Marin Ireland dies it again - she’s just so darned good. And this novella like a delicious confection. It made me laugh out loud and after a thoroughly miserable week, that’s saying something!

stellar narration and very funny

Revisado: 06-06-24

this was for me an absolutely delightful romp — clever, terrific character-driven dialogue and if it hasn’t been optioned for a film or series, someone is missing the boat.

brilliant narration

Revisado: 02-11-24

i am SO tempted to say “out of this world!” but i’m going to restrain myself and say this is a must-listen for anyone who is a Star Trek fan. And even if you’re not, it is absolutely worth your time!! an engaging, delightful tale told gorgeously by the author (which almost never happens in my experience).

great story! even greater narration!

Revisado: 11-04-23

so lovely, so odd, and so perfect. my only regret is that i can’t discover for the first time again. i dare anyone to listen to ms. ireland’s Bessie and Roland and not fall hopelessly in love with them.

terrific book!!

Revisado: 10-01-23

simultaneously luscious, heartbreaking and delightful. i was surprised by the sensitivity of the writing and the narration and grateful
to Mr. Osman for giving us elderly characters who are not the too-typical caricatures one often finds in mysteries but instead offers us human beings who are complex and fully realized.

don’t miss this

Revisado: 09-22-23

this is a gorgeous book with beautifully crafted, surprisingly poetic and fully realized characters. the real revelation for me was the narration, which was subtle and nuanced and finely honed. it was for me powerful and simultaneously restrained without ever drawing attention to itself. do yourself a favor and don’t let this book pass by.

everything and more

Revisado: 12-05-22

i loved everything about this book. the wait for it felt interminable but even with that anticipation it did not disappoint even for an instant. Ms Penny is a master storyteller, the narration was excellent and my only regret is that i arrived at the inevitable end of the book only to have to wait once more for her to begin again.

keep walking

Revisado: 11-29-22

Such a disappointment. It had all of the ingredients for a wonderful ride but try as i might i couldn’t even make myself finish it. The characters felt like caricatures and in many ways so did the plot with the main character serially spelling things out for others and the (reader). Perhaps things picked up in the second half of the book but i found i really didn’t care who ‘done it’.
