What did you love best about The Busy Body?

This was my first listen to a Westlake book and I enjoyed it. It was a good little mystery with amusing characters and humorous incidents. I plan to listen to more by Westlake.

Engrossing story as usual with a ghostly twist.

It's not at the top, but it was good. This author generally DOES NOT disappoint.

Not sure . . .

Engaging, but over written.

Revisado: 03-16-12

Would you try another book from Eric Ambler and/or Eric Meyers?

Maybe--I would want to see how long it is.

What other book might you compare The Schirmer Inheritance to and why?

Currently, I can't think of any.

What aspect of Eric Meyers???s performance would you have changed?

None it was OK

Was The Schirmer Inheritance worth the listening time?

Most of it was---it just took too long to hit the climax. Too many little distractions and sub-plots.

Any additional comments?

No.

Pretty good adventure

Revisado: 05-10-11

This is my first Brett Battles book and I found it pretty enjoyable. I learned a lot about CLEANERS and this story was basically believable and interesting. I'll try another bllk by him.

Strange Mystery

Revisado: 05-10-11

This story was a little strange--but it kept my interest. Many writers use too much filler, descriptions, unnecessary stuff--but Koryta was pretty much to the point. This was an involved mystery with a "backstory" that was eventually revealed. While interesting, it was basically unbelievable. However, I am planning to read more of his books.

Entertaining.

Revisado: 05-09-11

I'm not necessarily a Perry fan, but this book's description appeared interesting so I gave it a try. I wanted to see how this story ended. There was a lot of action and it was entertaining. Some of the action was a bit far-fetched, but after all, it's a STORY. I'm sure I'll be reading another Perry book again.

Connelly's latest doesn't disappoint!

Revisado: 05-09-11

This is another of Michael Connelly's excellent stories. Gripping from start to finish it totally involves the listener. This latest book is by far much better than last year's "The Reversal". A MUST READ for Connelly fans.

Turow still has it!

Revisado: 05-09-11

It's been A LONG TIME since I've read a book by Turow, so I really didn't know what to expect. I was very pleased with this book. It was much more than a legal drama. It detailed the drama going on in the life of the main character, whose life changes drastically in the opening paragraphs of this story. We're introduced to his family, friends and neighbors; all told interestingly. It's not necessarily high drama, but it is a "page turner". I've already lined up 2 more of Turow's books to follow.
