Deadly Nightshade Audiobook

" This mystery ended a bit abruptly, but was okay. I still love the strong women and Dojan a lot. "

" This could have been a cute cozy- except for the awful language from everyone! "

" I had never heard the term "geezer lit" prior to reading other people's reviews of this book. The heroine is 90, so I guess she qualifies. She's much more active than Ms. Marple and doesn't draw on her experiences as a youth for her crime-solving, so I'm not exactly sure why the author made her so elderly. The clues for this mystery were a bit ham-fisted. I found the weapon. Here is a note, etc... I would stick with Agatha Christie. She's much more of an artist. As a side note, I listened to this on audiobook and although it was set in Martha's Vineyard, MA, the reader was British and gave all of the old men Scotch and Irish accents. Weird. Couldn't they find a northeastern reader? "

" I didn't think this book was all that great, but it wasn't bad either. It was an easy read and that was about it. It was easy to figure out from the beginning who the bad guy was. "

" Pretty boring and hard to follow "

" listening on cd, the british accent of the elderly protaganist is already getting annoying. Characters are overdone so far, only just started yesterday... "

" The book was interesting if a little predictable. I liked the fact that the main character was 92 and a spitfire. "

" You can get Victoria Trumbull's Boston Baked Beans on the author's website. It looks pretty good. "

" I tried. I really tried. But I just could not get into this book. I usually force myself to finish a book even if I end up skipping half of it but I didn't even read the end of this one because I just didn't care. I have never read gezzer lit before and maybe I shouldn't. "

" Has the potential to be a good series. Like the characters. "

" All in all a good book, kind of lags in the middle though. Really good ending,though slightly predictable. "

" Book on CD. I am having trouble getting past the English accent of the reader when this book is set on Marthas' Vineyard. The reacer tries to do different voices but in the end all the characters speak with an English accent. Annoying. "

" Some good characters in this New England yarn, and the plot isn't bad. But the pace is slower than I like and the plot rather straightforward. "

" Book was o.k. nothing to write home about. The author used the word sweetheart so many times I wanted to slap her. Three times in one pragraph - really... The story line was o.k. I don't think the book was very well written. "

" Hard to stay focused on this book. I will have to try again at a later date. "

" Good mystery. Enjoyed the gardening references, great creation of a small east coast port town. Will probably read the next one. "

" Charming characters, but we're asked to accept frustrating plot inefficiencies and frustrating character blindness to what's right in front of them. I was entertained and glad that I read this book. I'd recommend it to anyone looking for light diversion. "

" My first book from this author and I thought it was a good cozy mystery. I loved the setting and learning about boating. I could tell the author is really informed about boating and has had experience. The characters are fun and murder mysteries light in severity. "

" Most cozy mysteries are yawners, and not very well written, so Deadly Nightshade came as a pleasant surprise. Light, fun, and intelligent. "

" i thought i'd enjoy the local setting but couldn't understand why a woman with an English accent would be the narrator "

" These are wonderful novels. One wants to be Victoria and to experience the mystery and fun. "
