Fun and Easy Listening

I enjoy the story lines and the steady characters. Just when you think you figured it out, you realize you don’t.

A history of reality in a Cosy

Sadly I suspect there is truth within the story. Mines in miners of Kentucky had a challenging life. This was a great story of romance love and friendship but it also showed courage fortitude bravery and heart

I enjoyed the story line

I loved many things about this series..
I liked the building of characters, the descriptions of there surroundings in Kentucky and all there goofy relationships.
I appreciated that they used the same narrator, since the southern inflictions stay consistent. I had not read this author or heard this narrator before so I will keep my eyes out for more books with them.

Reliable simple entertainment

As always, it’s great to hear positive stories that include supportive women and their ability to solve a murder or mystery. It’s like a little comfort wrapped in a cozy camp trailer with friends.

Love the characters and overall story.

Sofar I've listened to all the books available on audible. I love the overall story and the characters. The only complaint, story consistency. In first book Hank's granny is his mom, then she's his granny, then shes his mom again, then back to granny. She's 14 when her family dies, but in later books she talks like she's been in foster care since a young girl and lived with Mary Elizabeth for forever not just 4 yrs. She has a bio brother and sister in one book, then two sisters and brother in another book, then back to one of each again. Original story line of fire she was asleep in her room, then in another book she was asleep on the couch in the living room. In the ER Hank says he's only found her "AGAIN" after a few years, then it's dropped. May never questions it. No mention again of how he knew her in the past and lost her? Perhaps in future books Tanya will revisit this revelation? Editors have kind of dropped the ball on story flow.

The story is good

So the overall story is interesting. Something’s I notice is details change from one book to another. Like Bobby Rays hair. Or where she was when the fire killed her parents. Makes me think maybe different writers. I do enjoy the story

inconsistency with a story

the only thing I didn't care for is that the story changed along the way. At first she had three siblings, this book she only had two. earlier she didn't care for the pharmacist guy, this book she dated him. in other books she got the first car from the church then it said she got it from the garage. if you're going to write a book keep all the books with the same story lines

Good storytelling

Another set of awesome mysteries with a lighthearted feel fun listen definitely worth the reads

hooked

I am hooked on this series and will hate to read the last one. I will miss these ladies.

Less than average cost mystery series

I’ve listened to all of these. The fact that they are “less than average” made them perfect for what I needed - background noise while working and completing tasks around the house. LOTS of filler - especially if you listen to them consecutively. AND, if I hear “Daniel Boone National Forest” ONE MORE TIME…would make a great drinking or auto sit-ups or push-ups game. The author uses this term/phrase so often and so unnecessarily, I almost took the time to look up and see if she was being paid to advertise this specific forest. So - probably not worth credits unless you need some white noise.
