Deals with the very real and serious issues of the day while still very entertaining

Revisado: 05-20-24

So often Regency stories only touch on the issues for women of the time. This book reveals some of the worst in an unvarnished way. Yet, the story is both funny and very engaging. By far the best book I've read in awhile. I can't wait to read the next in the series.

Wonderful series

Revisado: 03-21-24

I doubted I'd enjoy it much since the main character wasn't a woman like I usually read, but I was surprised how I could still relate and impressed by how many plot twists there were. I've never been much into dog stories either, but this highly communicative dog is endearing. I look at my two little dogs now and think what fun it would be to know what they are thinking. Is it realistic? Not at all! But what fun would it be if it was? This is fun reading that holds your attention and keeps you wanting to know more!

Absolutely delightful!

Revisado: 12-08-23

I don't know what other book the people read who complained; this is a Cozy Mystery and not a Pulitzer contender. It is great fun, and has a unique storyline unlike so many Cozy Mysteries. The characters are also unique and pleasantly unpredictable. I read many Cozy Mysteries and this is my new favorite. I look forward to reading more adventures!

A must read for anyone interested in mental health

Revisado: 05-03-23

This is an incredible story of the struggle of a person surviving unimaginable trauma as a child. While not knowing any other life she fights to find a "normal" life. All the while the story portrays the horror of the early mental health treatment of the early 20th century while portraying the humanity of the victims.
Anyone who has experienced long term trauma may find inspiration in the story of the journey of a woman to find a way forward through life after trauma. It is realistic too, in that even as an older adult, the issues still persist for many. So many stories try to portray quick resolution without acknowledging the life long process required to deal with such profound trauma. And still the story shows how life can still be fulfilling during the process,.

Excellent, innovative, hard to put down

I found myself going to bed exhausted by the day but listening to the book. I couldn't stop listening. At one point I fell asleep but woke up, backed up and kept listening until the big question was answered.

Not predictable!

Revisado: 11-21-22

So often you have a. general idea how the story will end a few chapters in. Not this book! It has a lot of unique twists, and yet they are all believable. It shows up the characters in a more complex way, and doesn't fall into stereotypes. I like faith incorporated in books, but even when written by famous authors of the genre, the inclusion often feels contrived. But in this book it feels genuine and realistic. What a great book!

Love this series

Revisado: 11-11-22

I'm always in such a hurry to get to the next book that I don't fill this out, so this is for all but one of the books. It is such a comforting and humourous depiction of a family over the years. It always makes me feel good to spend time listening.

An old fashioned feels good story

Revisado: 08-23-22

Nothing wildly new but so nice to read about an era where respect and a person's word meant a great deal; where even the rough guys could be seen as good, and people looked out for each other. No steamy romance, just a good story. I think it could easily be a play that a highschool could do. Just a comfortable, nice read/ listen.
