narrator,writing style

Revisado: 10-24-24

I did not like the story at all. I struggled to finish. Setting in Paris? Very little description of a magnificent city. I want to go back to Three Pines.

my favorite in the Series

Revisado: 03-12-24

I have listened to every book in this series. This one is my favorite. Great story, excellent character development,intense suspense and I even learned new things. The narrator is wondeful. I can't imagine anyone else narrating this series. I hate that I need to wait so long for the next installment.

wanted time it

Revisado: 09-25-21

I wanted to like this but the story just bored me to tears. Couldn't relate to the characters and cats were not magical to me. The narrator was very good though.

lovely Christmas Story

Revisado: 12-19-20

I loved this story and production. It was like the old time radio plays. The actors were very good,the story so charming without being too sweet. I highly recommend this Audible Original.

Unexpected love story

Revisado: 11-03-19

I can't tell you why I decided to listen to this. Perhaps it was the unusual title,or the unusual story line,but I am so glad I did. It was a lovely story,very well narated.

where are the characters

Revisado: 06-09-19

I look forward to reading the books in this series. But most of the characters that make the books so enjoyable were not in the story. Even the animals were not as prominent. Harry and Susann were there and no one else! I missed them. I also struggled through the hunting with the beagles and bassets. Way too much emphasis on that and not on the story. I enjoyed the secondary story from the 18th century and hope in future books it continues. I also hope Fair,BoomBoom,Little Mim and the others come back in the next book. I just did not care for the Beagle/Basset Hound hunting club characters at all.

about time Kate returned

Revisado: 09-16-17

I was thrilled to have Kate Shugask back in my reading/listening life again. This book was excellent. The naration was,also. No one in my opinion could render Kate and all the characters as well as Margarita Gavin does. The story was very interesting and it was a pleasure to listen to. I hope that Dana Stabenow has decided to keep writing the Kate Shugak books for a long time to come. There are many more stories to tell,I am sure.

Wished I had bought the print edition

Revisado: 07-12-17

What did you love best about The Weight of Night?

I really enjoyed the mystery and some of the characters. I could not stand Gretchen. The narrator for Gretchen was not terrible but not good either. I found Gretchen's over thinking her tragedy to be tedious and every time another of her chapters came up I wished I had the print edition to be able to skim through her melodramatic wonderings into her past. I felt her sleepwalking added absolutely nothing to the story. While i felt sorry for her plight,I got sick of her constant whining about it. Otherwise the characters were well developed and the story was engrossing.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

At times,until Gretchen started her depressive rants.

What three words best describe R. C. Bray and Sarah Mollo-Christensen ’s voice?

R.C. Bray: excellent,strong and perfect. Sarah Mollo-Christensen: depressing, non-expressive and tedious.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

No

Any additional comments?

I really enjoy Christine Carbo's books and am glad I bought this one. The first two I listened to were much better.

Fun easy listening

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would recommend this audio to anyone looking for a fun,easy lisstening experience. The story was fun,not great literature,but engaging. The narrator was such a pleasure to listen to. Having too much stress in your life? Great commute book or wind down after a hectic day book.I hope for more from this author and marrator.
