Fire Sale Audiobook

" I really enjoy the V.I. Warshawski series. I have not read many but plan to read more when I run out of books to read. "

" I didn't care for the writing style, but the plot was more than enough to make up for it! "

" I hadn't read one of these in ages and really enjoyed catching up with V.I. Warshovski as she takes on a WalMart-like family business on the south side of Chicago. At the same time, she is filling in as coach to an impoverished south side girls basketball team. Lots of action and quirky characters. A fun read. "

" You are half way into the book before you ven know what the crime is. Written for screenplays. I like the VI Warshovski character, but the writing is a bore. "

" I saw a V I Warshawski movie on TV once and thought I would enjoy reading the books. This was my first one, which is #12 in the series. I'm not sure if it was actually the book or the fact that I listened to it on playaway while exercising that I never really got into it. I'm just glad that it's over so I can move on to something else. "

" Very interesting paths this story took, with lots of action. It was, for me, one of the author's more interesting books. "

" Good Warshawski story, as usual. "

" Unabridged audio narrated by Sandra Burr "

" Classic Paretsky tale of Vic's most recent investigation. This time, she's investigating a possible saboteur at a local factory who turns out to be quite the firebug. Great tale of religious and class differences in Chicago's South Side. "

" This book is about a strong woman. Though she is not quite as ridiculous as Stephanie Plum, she does do some crazy things. "

" About 75% good Paretsky fun, this book suffers from a poor reader and too much verbiage. Truly, it takes more skill than Sandra Burr can summon (she sounds much too young for V.I.) to take the listener through all the stream-of-consciousness stuff that pads out this fine plot. "

" I have read several of Sara Paretsky's books. I particularly enjoy her Polish female detective V I Warshawski character. "

" As always, a fun easy read by Sara Peretsky. V.I Warshawsky, a female private detective, has a tough, sarcastic exterior with a heart of gold. I always love to read about her exploits. The bad guys always finish last, and the underdogs finish on top in these stories. Love them! "

" Paretsky continues to tell an intriguing story with plenty of social comment added. "

" Poor VI sure does get beat up a lot. Kudos for bringing the big guys down! "

" This book moved too slowly and after about 50 pages I threw it down. I'm going to look for something more interesting. "

" I also love all of the V.I. Warshawski novels--what's not to like about a Polish-Italian private detective with more bravado than precaution and a great dog. "

" stopped reading after 50+ pages ... a mixed up mess of a story. It looks like I'm the odd one out on this one. Most GR reviews are positive. "

" Sara Paretsky continues writing in her usual style and with her usual characters plus some. A good fast read, "

" My first detective/mystery. Series based in Chicago. Was slow at the start, but picked up by the end. And I really did want to know whodunnit... that certainly counts for a good read. "

" this is the first one of her books I have read and I really enjoyed it. Could hardly put it down. "

" I'd never read any of the VI Warshawski mysteries, and this one was enjoyable. The story drew me in, I liked the Chicago setting, but the author does have a few literary 'tics' that began to bother me. At book club, we questioned whether anyone could seriously refer to someone as their "lover." "
