About this listen

Parrots are flying loose all over a convention hotel, making trouble and imitating everything everyone says. Monkeys are swinging from chandelier to chandelier. Michael is a teacher moonlighting as an actor in the show Porfiria, Queen of the Jungle, and the cast, crew, and their exotic animal colleagues are performing at the hotel. Michael and his partner Meg have become part of the show’s family—but as with most families, there's a member who's very difficult to like. QB, the actress playing Porfiria, is a true drama queen, with a drinking problem and a bad attitude. When Meg attempts to extract the recalcitrant QB from her dressing room, Meg finds her dead. Now Meg and Michael, despite the zany atmosphere, must solve the murder.

Love the characters and the plot twists. I was able to guess who-dun-it but enjoyed the trip getting there. On to the next book in the series.

Meg Langslow #5

I wasn't sure when I first started this series, I was at the end of all my favorites and must wait for the yearly release which then caught in a few hours. Dread when that happens. This series appealed to me base on reviews, well and the fact there are over 20 already! It will keep me busy. The first 2 seemed a little over the top and the family like a bad sitcom to me. I know I know sounds like a bad review but the last 3 books the quirky family grows on you and reeled in to not be so outrageous. This book was awesome and I didn't even figure out "Who Dunnit" until close to the end. The end had a twist causing me to doubt my final selection which was awesome!

Loved the story, and the plot. This one had me actually laughing out loud in certain parts! I'll admit, I was surprised at the narration. I thought that it wouldn't be as good as it turned out to be.

Perfect mystery series for animal lovers.

The Quirky Characters absolutely make this series.

This book is one of my favorite in the series, with the TV show fan setting, the wayward parrots, and Meg’s parents managing to join in. The narration, as always, is excellent.
