A Is For Alibi (Abridged) Audiobook

" Ik overwoog de reeks te lezen, maar ik denk dat ik het bij eentje hou... "

" Fun series but sometimes a bit descriptive but as I have recently visited Santa Barbara are looking forward to the next in the series "

" The last 20 pages were great. The secondary subplot (insurance fraud case) was more fun than the main story. "

" I am such a fan of Sue Grafton and Kinsey Milhone. I have read every one of her books; I anxiously await the release of each new title from her. This first book is still my favorite, although they are all good. "

" Not to terribly impressed with the character or this author's writing. The descriptions were not very well thought out. The mystery, however wasn't bad, and some of the other character's were pretty good. I just wasn't to impressed with the main character. "

" This was a pleasant enough little romp and I enjoyed it for what it was. The characterizations were a bit stiff, the plot was obvious and I figured out who the killer was before the first body fell, but it was a pleasant enough way to pass the time. I enjoyed it enough that I will read more, although not perhaps too rapidly. "

" I actually read these a long time ago. I can't believe I remembered who the bad guy was going to be from the beginning of the book. Hmm. "

" I think I have read all of these also altho I did not read them in order and so the sequencing is confusing to me. Initially I liked the fact that the detective stayed frozen in time but now I find the lack of technology to just be frustrating and playing to the reaganesque nostalgia crowd. I hope she finished Z and starts a new series with a heroine that actually has a cellphone. "

" Sue Grafton and her PI Kinsey Milhone have given me a good ride, I mean read! I have read all of these novels, and she has never let me down. Genuine characters and a great detective with a lot of heart. "

" I liked this book. It was a little predictable and I am not yet sure if I will continue reading her series... "

" Tough talking renegade P.I. with a soft side. Guess it wasn't as much of a cliche when it was written. Lightweight, quickie murder mystery. "

" It was fine. Ending was one of those rush jobs where everything is tied up nice and neat. I wouldn't recommend this book to a friend. "

" Though portraying vastly different worlds, I noted a structural similarity between this and Margery Allingham's Death of a Ghost. In both books the evil perpetrator is known fairly early on and in both a very tense stretto finale is achieved in which the hero-heroine is seriously jeopardised. "

" It was hard to really get into this book. The narrative was hard for me to get through at first. "

" I'm pretty sure I haven't missed a "single letter". So, cool is Kinsey Millhone and truly an old friend when one needs a fun read. I give all stories 5 stars. "

" Light, fairly interesting mystery, but don't know if I'd get into all the other letters with her. "

" This book was a good mystery but it was just another run of the mill book to me. I didn't get nervous or have a hard time figuring out who did it. It wasn't a terribly exciting read but it wasn't a bad one either. "

" Very average; don't need to read anymore of the alphabet mysteries "

" Enjoyed first books but find reading the last few is more of a chore. "

" Have read the entire alphabet series and love them all "

" Very easy to read. Plot was ok and fairly standard. Will read at least one more of the series. "

" This was the first in the series. Sue goes throught the alphabet with her titles. Kinsey is a great PI....and you can't wait to read the next book! "

" meh ... it was too easy to figure out "

" Easy, entertaining, predictable without overly complicated plots. Ms. Grafton's earlier novels are much better than the ones after Kinsey discovers she has living family, IMO. "

" I have read every book in the series thus far and love each one of them! "

" I listened to this book on tape back when I was homeschooled. I loved listening while doing origami or drawing. "

" Excellent start to this series!!!!!! "

" have read just about all the alphabet stories by Sue Grafton...have one first edition book signed by her obtained at a reading in Northern California...will probably finish out her series "

" As poorly written as the first in the series, but with way too much foreshadowing. The "mystery" was obvious from the beginning of the book and I only finished it to see if I was wrong. I wasn't, and I don't believe I'll be reading any more of Sue Grafton's work. "

" Masih sama seperti seri sblmnya, malah lebih tertebak lagi jln ceritanya. Kayaknya mau dibikin tradisi neegh, tiap akhir novel, si Kinsey masuk rs mulu. ^_^ "

" Another good one. Keeps m e reading!!!!! Hard to put down.... "

" Easy read - nice little twist at the end I didn't see coming. "

" The book was ok. A very fast read. The person who hired her and her husband might have made for an interesting side story, but they felt like nothing but a red herring. They were dropped in the middle of the story and then forgotten with the sole purpose seemingly to make them suspects. "

" Ok, but liked "A" better, lets see what the rest of the alphabet has to offer. "

" I liked this one in the series more than the first. It had some good thrills, filled with great characters and was a quick read I finished in one day, can't wait to read more in the series. "

" Totally different than her first book but just as great. I figured out who was the killer but didn't realize who they actually were. Can't wait to start "C". "

" A very compelling tale of missing persons, burglary, murder and investigation. Grafton's heroine is genuine, flawed, courageous, and relatable. This series is a must-read! "

" I think it's time to end this series for me "
