Another awesome Read

I mostly enjoyed the different characters we got to experience in this book. my favorite of all was Frank! he was so well written and I enjoyed the plot! good book!

Wonderful Listening

I loved the TV show so I tried this book. What a great surprise to be able to listen to a superb story from Jessica herself.

Kept my attention at attention!

Excellent reading- the narrator was eerily similar to Angela Lansbury so I had to look her up.

Took a while to get started

Now I love the show Murder, She Wrote but this took forever to get going. The mystery didn't really get revealed until about half way through so it drug a little bit until then.

Satisfying Mystery

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

If one of my friends was a fan of "cozies" and Jessica Fletcher, I'd definately recommend this audiobook.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Murder, She Wrote?

The description of the filming of a TV commercial. The narrative gave me a mental image of what the area looked like and how the filming was done.

Did Cynthia Darlow do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?

Yes. However, I do find her regional accents slightly overdone. I got used to Jessica's New England accent. I'm a midwesterner and I have no idea if the accent is accurate. However the accent she used for one character from Texas was annoying to me.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

No. But I smiled often and relaxed alot.

Any additional comments?

I was a fan of the "Murder She Wrote" TV series. These books are based on the TV series and therefore predictable in some ways. That's OK with me. I like Jessica's common sense and intelligence. I know there will not be descriptions of excessive violence. I know there will be an interesting puzzle to solve. Sometimes I just want to listen to a good, relaxing story. The "Murder She Wrote" series fills that need for me.
