A Question of Belief Audiobook

" I do enjoy the Brunetti series, but I really feel this was unresolved. The end came too quickly, too tidily, without real resolution for either story line. "

" This was a nice, easy holiday read recommended to me by my Grannie. It was set in Venice and had a lot of Italian words in it. I managed to work out what a lot of them meant from the context and from my knowlegde of French and Spanish, but I think someone who had some knowledge of Italian would get more out of it. There was enough mystery to keep me wanting to read on but not so much suspense that I couldn't put it down. "

" More satisfying than the last few books in this series, this time Brunetti simultaneously chases down a charlatan and a murderer. Wait until winter to read this story or you will surely be sweating along with Guido. "

" Another excellent Guido Brunetti mystery. "

" I love this author. Pure pleasure from canal to campo, from prosecco to proscuito. "

" Leuk boekje om te lezen, maar niet de beste in de serie. Het verhaal is wat dun en het boek moet het vooral hebben van de beschrijvingen van de Italiaanse taal en cultuur (die overigens ook niet al te rijk aanwezig zijn). "

" Not my favorite of Leon's books, but still enjoyable. Guido Brunetti is never a disappointment. "

" I always enjoy these books. Light reading. Good charsacters. You should start with the first in the series. "

" I love all the books about Commissario Brunetti. They are light and easy reading with just enough intrigue and mystery. Plus, they bring back to me some wonderful memories of Venice and Italian life. I hope I get to go back! "

" Donna Leon at her slowest, probably evoking the heat of a Venetian summer. "

" I love Donna Leon. Easy reading and always a twist. "

" Good sleuthing, lits of literary innuendo, family and office dynamics: Donna Leon writes for people who have wide literary experience. I love Commissario Brunetti "

" Very enjoyable, combined crime fiction with detail about Venice- Political, much made of the corruption. Also comment on the class system in Venice. "

" Heat wave in Venice, corrupt judges, a dead clerk, a charlatan of a soothsayer...Guido Brunetti has his hands full! I really think the last 2 Leon books have returned to the glory days of the early series--they make me desperately want to visit Venice! And eat lots of Italian food. "

" I enjoyed the setting of Venice and this story was a satisfying quick read. I will seek out more in this series. "

" These are always elegant, graceful, and very Venetian. But this one did not have enough of Paola or the children, nor enough about food. Instead, the focus was on the unrelenting Venetian heat and the unrelenting human capacity for both love and dception. "

" Instead of focusing on Commissario Brunetti's family, something on his colleague Vianello makes it less repetitive. "

" Not as good as the book I previously read in this series. The plot wasn't complex enough and ended quite simply. But still overall, a great historical mystery "

" Another wonderful book by Donna Leon. "

" Not one of her best. Discrepancy with her first book taking place a few years before where she states he knows his home was built illegally. "

" not as good as her usual... two stories -- one about a charlatan healer who takes money from old people with promises of cures... plus a murder of a 40 year gay bank employee... "

" 3.5 Much the same as all the others in this series. It's very predictability is what I like. "

" Thoroughly enjoyable but I'm beginning to wonder if any of the villains in Venice ever get brought to trial! If the corruption is real, it's a helluva corrupt place! "

" enjoyed the setting.... Venice "

" Donna Leon's mysteries with Commissario Brunetti in Venice are becoming my go-to reads for good escapism reading. Read with a glass of wine for the best effect. "

" Donna Leon's series always reminds me of my visits to Venice, Italy. Her characters are superbly developed, the place comes alive, and the mysteries are solved without violence from the police. "

" Good read as usual. And yeh - too many references to the heat... In general Leon does tend to talk about the weather A LOT. Too much really but aside from this I really like the series. "

" Another excellent and intelligent story from Donna Leon. She has such a fine eye for a good plot, and her knowledge of Venice and her well-rounded characters are engrossing. Vianello has emerged from Brunetti's shadow --- I'm enjoying getting to know him more thoroughly. Thanks. Don't stop :) "

" Guido's family vacations in the mountains while he has to return to suffocating heat of Venice to investigate murder of gay civil servant. "

" I love all the books about Commissario Brunetti. They are light and easy reading with just enough intrigue and mystery. Plus, they bring back to me some wonderful memories of Venice and Italian life. I hope I get to go back! "

" Loved this Donnal Leon (but then I have loved them all!) "

" Love all the Brunetti books! "

" This is the 19th installment in Donna Leon's Commissario Guido Brunetti series of mysteries set in Venice. I really enjoy this series, the setting and the characters of Brunetti, his coworkers and family. I seemed to be just in the mood for this kind of read and particularly enjoyed this one. "

" I love this author. Pure pleasure from canal to campo, from prosecco to proscuito. "
