A Novel

By: Elle Cosimano

Narrated by: Angela Dawe

"Angela Dawe's narration makes YA author Elle Cosimano's debut novel for grown-ups a wild and funny romp...Dawe offers Cosimano's laugh-out-loud moments with just the right sparkle." (AudioFile Magazine)

IT’S MURDER BEING A HIT-MOM

"Getting the job done" for one single mom takes on a whole new meaning in Finlay Donovan is Killing It, a deliciously witty adult debut - the first in a brilliant new series from YA Edgar Award nominee Elle Cosimano.

FINLAY DONOVAN IS KILLING IT...except, she’s really not. The new book she promised her literary agent isn’t written, her ex-husband fired the nanny without telling her, and this morning she had to send her four-year-old to school with hair duct-taped to her head.

When Finlay’s overheard discussing the plot of her new novel with her agent over lunch, she’s mistaken for a contract killer and inadvertently accepts an offer to dispose of a problem husband in order to make ends meet...and she soon discovers that crime in real life is a lot more difficult than its fictional counterpart.

OMG!!

OMG!! This book will have you laughing, gasping, guessing and sitting on the edge of your seat for the next twist and turn of events. Make sure you have plenty of free time because once you start you won’t want to stop until you’ve finished. Waiting until February for the next one is going to be torture! Don’t waste time debating if it’s worth using a credit or purchasing it… just do it already!

Epic First Line

When you have an epic opener, the story must rise to its standard. This story rose and certainly did not disappoint.

A little darker than expected

Very well written, and excellent narration. Story = Someone mis-heard a conversation and “things got out of hand”. There were quite a few funny bits and I really like the ending but the summary glossed over that this is really a murder mystery.
It has some well-described dead bodies in it, and I wasn’t expecting that. So, now you’re warned. If you are ok with that, you’ll probably enjoy this book.

Great read

This was another great read that I really enjoyed. It kept me interested and it had some funny moments

Funny and unexpected

This read stood out because it did not fit the typical storyline. The characters were unexpected and provided lots of laughs! Will be fun to see this author continue to develop.
