Too many words, too little said. Few conflicts to keep the reader interested. AI voice tiresome.

I'm hesitant to write a negative review, but I do so with the hope of encouraging Jane Fadely to improve in the areas mentioned. Ms. Fadely has a lovely skill of writing.

Charles Martin makes unbelievable circumstances seem real as he takes the listener to the middle of every scene. When the book ended, I regretted that it was finished.

The honest reflections in Savannah Guthrie's book reveal a human being with flaws. She dares to show her shortcomings without the pretense of perfection. It is easy to identify with her walk through life as she interacts with God, who leads her. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this book with its humanity.

Have you read or listened to any good books lately? In other words, have you started a book you couldn’t put down until you finished it?

I did this week. Marguerite Martin Gray’s first book in her Gardens in Time Series captivated me. I was looking for an Audible book, but I didn’t realize that Marguerite had produced any of her books as recordings. According to the Audible dot com page, Labor of Love is her only recorded book that has been produced.

What a delightful book it is! After Marguerite catches her readers in the romance of the book, she introduces suspense-filled crime drama. We readers and listeners always expect stories with these elements to turn out well, but she presented problems that could not be solved without divine intervention.

The recording is ten hours long. I listened to it in two days. It was impossible to stop. First, the writer’s clever use of language and exquisite details of courtly Italian life in the sixteenth century fascinated me. I don’t know how Marguerite does so much. She has written a series about life during the Revolutionary War period (I’ve read all those), an instruction book to help short-term missionaries speak Spanish, and some island romances. Now she’s publishing her Garden Series. Meanwhile, she teaches Spanish and French. She still has time to be a wife, mother, promoter of her writing, and thoughtful friend.

In the beginning of the book, her scholarship amazed me. Her word pictures enticed me to keep listening. Then I fell in love with the characters. As the suspense developed, I found myself listening while I went through my activities of daily living.

When I started listening to Deception, I was glad no one else in my family was home that day because the book captivated me. All day long and into the night, I listened to it--couldn't stop...it was that good. The next day I went back and listened to the last third of the book again. What made it so good? The romance. It's impossible not to listen to a good clean, well-written romance. The mystery. Not wanting to divulge too much and write a spoiler, I'll just say that the book begins with confusing actions that seem illogical, possibly from mistaken identities. The setting. Having grown up in Mississippi, where my husband received a speeding ticket on the Natchez Trace and where we spent time visiting relatives in Natchez, I enjoyed going back there in a book. The plot. It was impossible to predict the outcome of all the twists and turns of the novel. The characters. The people came to life.
