Sculptress

Revisado: 09-18-15

What made the experience of listening to The Sculptress the most enjoyable?

I think the narrator was great, but the story was riveting to me.

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

Yes, it did. There were two mysteries going on at the same time, the old mystery and the new one created by the writer.

Which scene was your favorite?

Hard to say, the love story was lovely. But several scenes from the investigation and subsequent reveal were also.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

A different kind of locked room mystery.

This is a kind of timeless mystery that still leaves you wondering. I really like this author's work.

Cards on the Table by Josh Lanyon

Revisado: 11-25-14

Would you listen to Cards on the Table again? Why?

Yes, I already have listened to it a couple of times. It is one of my favorite short stories by Josh Lanyon. I really enjoy his work, and I think this is one of his best.

What did you like best about this story?

There are really two things. First is the mystery and how it gets solved and the second is the relationship.

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

Yes, I think it does. I am partial to audio books over reading but I have read this book so many times I have practically memorized it. Hearing it in audio is really a treat.

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

It made me laugh and feel sad at certain points. However, the fact that there is always hope that makes the book fun and interesting.

Any additional comments?

Josh Lanyon is one of my favorite authors so I am very biased about his work, that said, I really did enjoy this book in the audio format.

Criss Cross: PsyCop, Book2

Revisado: 11-25-14

Where does Criss Cross rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

It is very good. I think in a lot of ways asking this question is trying to compare apples and oranges. I love the book and the author. It is a very good audio of the book.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Criss Cross?

When Victor's body gets taken over by the ghost of his old doctor so that the doctor and help him put Roger out so that Vic can escape.

Have you listened to any of Gomez Pugh’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Yes, I listened to the first in the series and it was great, also.

If you could rename Criss Cross, what would you call it?

I don't know, it kind of describes part of it. The problem with his partner, Roger really gets caught up in the mess with the Criss Cross Killer.

Any additional comments?

I love the PsyCop series and am so glad they are being put on audio.

Among the Living@ PsyCop, Book 1

Revisado: 11-25-14

Where does Among the Living rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

It is right up there with the rest of the books I have listened to.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Among the Living?

I think when Victor zaps the succubus. He gets his bearings and goes all cop!

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

I think he brings an understanding of Victor's lameness and Jacob's finesse. It is so clear in the audiobook.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes, but life interferes a lot. It is one I re-read and listen to so I can get the feel again if I have to leave it.

Any additional comments?

The Psycop Series of Jordan Castillo Price is one of my favorite series and I am so glad they are coming out on audio.

Isle of Wishes

Revisado: 04-08-14

Would you try another book from Sue Brown and/or Max Lehnen?

If the couple had developed a plan of action to make a HEA.

Which character – as performed by Max Lehnen – was your favorite?

Both of the lead characters were sweet.

Did Isle of Wishes inspire you to do anything?

No

I don't like to do spoilers but maybe does not appeal to me and I wish they would let you know that when the book is described.

Deadly Wrong

Revisado: 06-02-13

Where does Deadly Wrong rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

This book is the second in Victor Banis' Deadly series and it is one of my favorites of his. It makes up for the ending on Deadly Nightshade and continues the series. I don't do spoilers but it is fun and Stanley is a hoot in it. Also, this vocal performance is much more in line with the characters. While I love the book Deadly Nightshade I did not particularly like the narrator. This really enjoyed this narrator and would highly recommend the book.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Stanley

What about Guy Veryzer’s performance did you like?

I truly enjoyed it.

If you could rename Deadly Wrong, what would you call it?

Couldn't

What did you love best about Somebody Killed His Editor?

What did you like best about this story?

I really enjoy series. I liked the fact that this was the start of a comic mystery series.

Which scene was your favorite?

The beginning of the book when the MC when fighting for his life on the bridge. It was funny and scary at the same time.

If you could rename Somebody Killed His Editor, what would you call it?

How Kit and JX restarted

Any additional comments?

I always like anything Josh Lanyon does, but this narrator really brought out the best in this book and made me laugh throughout the whole thing which I did not do when I read it. I smiled a lot but did not laugh out loud like I did with this narrator.
