Viola gets better and better!
Revisado: 03-29-21
I really enjoyed the first three books of this series, but the more I get to know Viola the more I love her shenanigans. I hope there are more to come!

Historia
A quiet, sheltered, passive girl, Ynith never suspected that the awkward young man she encountered in the library was none other than the Crown Prince Arnsword. Nor would she expect that this baleful character would set his sights upon her as the singular object of his undying affection. But what Ynith could never prepare herself for would be the cost of being loved by a man who is, by all rights, evil. A powerful budding Wizard, Ynith’s beau is about to wreak havoc upon the world, and force Ynith to discover facets of herself that she finds terrifying.

Morally questionable but entertaining
Revisado: 02-19-21
First and foremost I have to say that I've never read anything in this specific genre before, so there may be some conventions that I'm not aware of that are common but just not too my taste (such as the very specific detailing of outfits and repeated descriptions of the heroine's attractiveness). That being said, this was a very imaginative world and story and once it got past the early courtship of the characters and into some meatier stuff, I was pretty intrigued. I don't want to spoil too much so I won't get too specific, but *SPOILER* the hero does something that is AT BEST morally daaaaark gray that the heroine, who is supposed to be really good, never truly seems to be that shocked or upset by, and all should be forgiven because they love each other? *END SPOILER* I kept waiting for this action to be given more weight. I actually wouldn't have really minded if this was meant to be a story about two morally questionable people who put their love first and foremost without caring how it impacts people, but unless I'm reading this wrong, we're still meant to believe Inneth (sp?) is a good person throughout the story. Maybe this will continue to develop in the series? Anyway, overlooking that huge plot point and character development, I did enjoy it overall.
The narrator is a skilled voice actress and I was impressed by the range of the characters. The ogren (sp?) in particular were incredibly vivid and frightening!

Historia
The Corpse in the Cabana: Viola Roberts is headed to a writers’ conference at an exotic Florida resort complete with white sand beaches and swaying palm trees where she plans to lounge in the shade drinking frosty beverages with little umbrellas. And, of course, no sojourn to tropical climes would be complete without her wise-cracking best friend, Cheryl. When Viola discovers the diva of the author world dead (as a doornail) of unnatural causes, the police detective turns a gimlet eye on Viola’s best friend.

Fun, funny whodunnits
Revisado: 10-28-20
Viola Roberts and the other quirky cast of characters really bring these stories to life, as does the fantastic narration and range of character voices. The mysteries are interesting and take some unexpected turns, but most of the fun is following Viola and her friends on the way to figuring it all out. A great collection of short and sweet, snarky mysteries!

Short, sweet, and sassy
Revisado: 09-27-20
The Poison in the Pudding was my first encounter with Viola Roberts but I will definitely be going back for more. Viola is an enormously likable heroine, and despite the short length of the story, I found myself very invested in the characters and intrigued to find out what was going to happen next. The narrator slipped so seamlessly between the characters that I sometimes forgot it wasn't more than one person reading. Highly recommend!
