What an exquisite find!

Revisado: 08-06-18

A beautifully written story, within a story within a story. A modern ghost story but with so many other stories woven in. It touches upon modern issues but leaves out all the gory details, which in my opinion is what reading is all about - to nurture the mind and imagination. I recommend this book wholeheartedly.

Excellent Characters but just too long.

Revisado: 07-20-18

The writing and narration were terrific,. I think there were too many side trips in the plot and too many bad guys. It's almost as if the author couldn't make up her mind exactly where to focus. But This was the first book in the series and I am going to give it another try. Historical stuff was GREAT

WHAT A LITTLE GEM

Revisado: 03-13-18

Where does The Secrets of Wishtide rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

In the top 10 for new author. I was so pleasantly surprised with both the well written prose and the narrator.

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

It's not that kind of book. But well written and plotted well.

Any additional comments?

I think for lovers of english mysteries and well written cozy you cant go wrong, characters are great and plot complex enough to keep you interested.

The Best of the Series

Revisado: 01-18-18

What made the experience of listening to Of All Sad Words the most enjoyable?

I think the mystery was fun and hard to guess. The characters were shining forth

What did you like best about this story?

I think the title says it all, a lesson on bad decisions.

What does George Guidall bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I love his interpretation of the characters, he brings a book to life.

Good but not Great

Revisado: 01-18-18

If you could sum up Song of the Lion in three words, what would they be?

A little to slow and I miss Chee's detecting. His character seems to have lost something.

What three words best describe Christina Delaine’s performance?

It's more like Italian mafia, Jersey City than Navajo.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

No extremes.

It was surprisingly funny and witty in places

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

I am not sure if my friends read the same type of stuff I do, but I would recommend it just for the narrator and dialogue.

What about George Guidall’s performance did you like?

George Guidall could read a physics text book and make it interesting.

Walked into this one not knowing what I was gettin

Revisado: 10-11-16

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

I don't think anything could, too much s/m reference and rants about everything.

What does Bronson Pinchot bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Very good narrator, totally pleased with style and voices. Wish the subject matter could have been a little better.

What character would you cut from Nightwise?

I skimmed through the book to get to a better place but couldn't find it. Too gruesome and too heavy on the punishment angle.

What disappointed you about The Woman Who Walked into the Sea?

It takes too long to get where it's supposed to be, lost interest

Has The Woman Who Walked into the Sea turned you off from other books in this genre?

This is the second book by him that I have read. I have trouble liking any of his characters, and the ones I do like tend to die.

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of David Monteath?

Narrator was good, kept me listening

Interesting premis, misses the mark

Revisado: 10-11-16

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

The first few hours were good.

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

I walked away with a deep understanding the Stockholm syndrome and can understand it. It dragged a bit and needed more action.

Would you listen to another book narrated by Emily Sutton-Smith?

I would definitely giver her another chance.

Any additional comments?

I think this was a good first book if this is a series. But I am hoping since we have the complete explanation and her history behind us, we can get into some more reading of the body in the next episodes, that was the most interesting part and was barely touched on.

Great Read

Revisado: 02-20-13

Any additional comments?

Louise Penny is one of the best mystery writers out there. This book delves deeply into the psyche of her characters while keeping us guessing as to the outcome. I would read anything by Ms. Penny, and Ralph Cosham makes the listening great.
