GREAT MYSTERY

Good to read. Good for all ages. Worth your time and effort. Entertaining book to listen to.

Shenanigans!!

This is the first book I've listened to by this author. It had me talking out loud to myself at the shenanigans that were going on. Poor Jenny has returned home after a divorce. Her mom is pretty great. Her Mom's neighbor Zoe however had me praying for strength. She gets herself into so much trouble that the Chief of Police Ed Warner is trying to pen all the murders on her. He looks for any and I mean any excuse to lock her up. Warner goes after Zoe so hard. He's building his case on a lot of circumstantial evidence. Zoe doesn't help her case by making poor decisions against the advice of sane people trying to help her.

Elizabeth Kane Buzzelli is a great writer!

I very much liked this book. The storyline was very believable and easy to follow. The characters we easily any small town gr

Thoroughly Entertaining!

Loved the characters and the story. Couldn't wait to start the next mystery in the series.

Delightful!

I wasn’t sure I was going to like this book. The writing style a quirkiness was so different from books I normally listen to. But it was surprisingly delightful! Just enough intrigue to keep me interested and quirkiness to keep me entertained!

Couldn't get into the story

It felt like it was written (and read) for someone in their teams or teens. Nothing wrong with that, I just didn't find it appealing.

Great cozy

I enjoyed this tangled family/friends drama mystery. The fun but flawed characters seemed like real people. Will look for more by this author!

Great story

I greatly enjoyed the story, even got a few ideas for my own little free library from it.
The mystery was great & I enjoyed the characters. However Jenny's obsession with her old high-school boyfriend bugged me & made it hard for me to get through the story.
Narrator did a great job

interesting but needed more editing

I struggled through most of this. Zoe was an interesting character. Dora was not accurately representative of older women. The mystery was intriguing but the story bogged down with the odd quotations and distractions. The ending felt rushed and like connections were left out.

This book was frustrating…

It was long. It was slow. It was meandering. It was clunky. It was obvious.

But I loved the characters.
