Historia
The Corrections is a grandly entertaining novel for the new century--a comic, tragic masterpiece about a family breaking down in an age of easy fixes. After almost 50 years as a wife and mother, Enid Lambert is ready to have some fun. Unfortunately, her husband, Alfred, is losing his sanity to Parkinson's disease, and their children have long since flown the family nest to the catastrophes of their own lives. Enid has set her heart on an elusive goal: bringing her family together for one last Christmas at home.

Vile characters
Revisado: 01-11-24
It was a very difficult story to get through. The characters (except Denise) were hateful, horrible people. I had to listen at double speed just to finish the book. The only redeeming part of the experience was that I knew it was only story and I would NEVER HAVE HEAR FROM THIS ODIOUS CREW again.

Historia
Charlene, recently widowed, has renovated her historic mansion just in time to greet guests arriving for the town's annual Halloween festivities. She's lucky to have a helpful staff to provide support - as well as a handsome ghost named Jack standing invisibly by her side. Unfortunately, while the revelers head out on haunted tours, have their fortunes told, or grab a drink at Brews and Broomsticks, a killer walks among them. When Charlene discovers Morganna, a local Wiccan, dead in her shop, she starts getting cozy with the local coven, looking for clues to locate the crafty culprit.

Story 4 / Narrator 2
Revisado: 04-27-22
STORY: This is an entertaining series with decent development of cozy characters and imagery. i am intrigued enough to continue.
NARRATOR: OMG. The “British” accent was sooooo bad. And “JIM-iminez.” C’mon. Seriously?
In an audio book, these are important things that take you out of the reverie of the story.

Revisado: 12-12-21
LACKING Humor, character development, plot, relevance, prose. Very disappointing. Annoyingly cliche. It’s a waste of a credit.

Thirty going on Seventy
Revisado: 09-13-20
In general, NO THANKS. This series has some fun, escapist plots; it's quite suited to the Cozy Mystery genre. The problem for me is the main character's voice and general depiction. The enjoyment of the mystery was repeatedly interrupted with vernacular and sense of self supposedly experienced by a 30-year old female in the 21st century that screams this was written by someone MUCH older and out of touch with the generation depicted. I feel like my former-English-professor grandma was the voice of the antagonist. It was irritating and ruined suspension of disbelief.

I enjoyed the book and the clever plot. Character development was good. The audio was so annoying. Sounded like I was listening through a tin can.

Not my kind of characters.
Revisado: 04-06-19
I was repeatedly disappointed in the characters. They were annoying, childish, failed to redeem or grow in their arcs. I don’t plan on spending any more time with them.

Historia
Former English professor Cat Latimer is back in Colorado, hosting writers' retreats in the big blue Victorian she's inherited, much to her surprise, from none other than her carousing ex-husband. Now it's an authors' getaway, but Cat won't let anyone get away with murder. The bed-and-breakfast is open for business, and best-selling author Tom Cook is among its first guests. Cat doesn't know why he came all the way from New York, but she's glad to have him among the quirkier - and far less famous - attendees.

Flat characters, awkward prose, poor grammar, and lack of imagery. This book reads like a first draft by a student. On top of that, the reader was awful.
