Could not finish the 3rd book

The narrator is utterly terrible. She has four voices (a forced husky male voice, a whiny high pitched female voice, a rich pompous female voice, and her regular voice), and she switches between almost doing accents and then not doing any accents. The narration is completely distracting.

The stories start off kind of cute, but then the main character turns into a woman who needs saving, is almost helpless despite the fact that she can do magic, and is easily manipulated by her big strong man. He doesn’t respect her ability to function as an independent woman and she just goes along with it. It is insulting. Plus, the cutesy gushy banter between the main characters gets so over the top that I find myself gagging. I could not finish the last book. It was painful to listen to.

It is such a shame because I really like the premise of the books; I just can’t get past the characters (or the terrible narrating).

Cute and cozy, but completely predictable

I found these three books to be kind of cute, but the main character is a bit indecisive and helpless. As far as cozy mysteries go, I found it to be a bit too cozy and highly predictable.

I really like the Irish Village series, so I thought this one might be a good fit for me. I found this one to be too predictable, overly redundant, and the main character was selfish and unlikeable. I prefer smart and logical strong woman lead characters. Instead I found myself yelling at the character. To make it worse, the narrator was really not so good. The American accent was painful to listen to, and many times the tone for a character’s line was at odds with the words and description of it (emphasis was off or lighter lines were delivered with too much force). I wanted to like the book, and forced myself to stick it out to the end, but I will not continue with the series.
