High Country (Abridged) Audiobook

" This book was pretty good. Nothing to write home about, but typical Nevada Barr. If you like the outdoors, it is a good read. "

" I was disappointed by some basic inconsistencies in this Anna Pigeon volume. The plot itself was fine, but Anna seemed to put herself into more danger than realistic. "

" I read Nevada Barr only for the settings - National Parks. I could barely get through this one, but plodded on because I was in Yosemite at the time. What phony baloney characters, ridiculous plot (though based on fact), and totally implausible scenes. What was she smoking when she wrote this? "

" I read this "out of sync" because I had to do with Yosemite, which I know well. It was fun to think back on the trails mentioned, as well as some of the issues facing Yosemite Valley. Besides the familiarity, the story was fun too! "

" I enjoy the character of Anna Pigion, and I've been to Yosemite a few times. I really enjoyed the setting of the book is such a famous National Park. "

" I liked this a lot. It was a good mystery and great that the setting was a national park. I have two more of her books that I'm going to read now. "

" Another great Nevada Barr book - Yosemite Park in California. Lots of action and twists and is always just great descriptive writing "

" A bit far-fetched but entertaining. "

" I love stories about strong women "

" I may be somewhat jaded by having read a number of Nevada Barr's mysteries, but this one did not seem to have as complex or interesting a plot as the others I have read. Nevada Barr does have a way with words. She turns phrases at a level much better than most mystery series writers. "

" Barr's characters are fairly well developed and I always enjoy the setting of a national park. "

" Love the whole "series". Anna Pigeon is a great character and I love reading about the National Parks - especially ones I've been too. After a while the pacing gets predictable, but they make entertaining lighter reading, without being too graphic. "

" Nevada Barr kept me guessing again. I thought I knew who the perp was but didn't find out until the end. This Anna Pigeon novel takes place in Yosemite and Anna is sent there from Mississippi to help with an investigation of four missing persons from the park. "

" Getting so that the only reason I read Barr's mysteries is to get background for visits to National Parks. "

" Anna Pigeon at 50 and in Yosemite undercover. Good car listening. "

" Fun to read if you are in Yosemite, especially at the lodge. "

" The AWESOME setting is Yosemite National Park and four young hikers are gone and presumed dead. The story is included with great descriptive writing and my memories of this beautiful area. "

" Anna Pigeon in Yosemite uncovers more than a planeload of marijuana. I am finding this series so interesting and I don't think it matters what order they read. "

" All I know about Yosemite is in this book. "

" Really fun read, especially if you've been to Yosemite. "

" Not one of favorites. Anna's demeanor seems uncharacteristic. "

" I enjoyed it as I do all of Anna Pigeon's books "

" Didn't have quite as much about the park as I was hoping for, but Barr's a good writer and she tells her story well. "

" graphic, suspenseful, has a resolved ending "

" I was a little dissappointed by this book. Having been to Yosemite many times, I felt maybe she hurried the research for this book. Her facts could have easily come from a short visit, brouchers and blogs. Her story lines are predictable so I want to be carried by the scenery. "

" Nevada Barr kept me guessing again. I thought I knew who the perp was but didn't find out until the end. This Anna Pigeon novel takes place in Yosemite and Anna is sent there from Mississippi to help with an investigation of four missing persons from the park. "

" I like mysteries and enjoyed this book but sometimes I felt she overused adjectives. Sometimes descriptions were too complex and spoiled the flow of the story. "

" Grade C+. Turns gory 1/2 way through. "

" As usual, Nevada Barr kept me white-knuckled all the way through this book. Anna took quite a beating throughout this tale and I think I'm ready for her to go back to Mississippi and her wonderful husband for the next in the series. "

" Getting so that the only reason I read Barr's mysteries is to get background for visits to National Parks. "

" I enjoyed this mystery most for it's descriptions of Yosemite. Since we were there just before I started reading it, I could easily visualize the setting. "

" All I know about Yosemite is in this book. "

" Not bad. A few editorial inconsistencies. But, I would rather not know about the seedy underbelly in my National Parks! "

" Another page turner. They are easy reads, but after a certain number of these, they become formulaic. One reason I keep reading them is that the setting are places I like. This one is in Yosemite. "

" OTHSB Laura goes to claim her half of Fathers ranch. Fidn Aunt lied to herh about her parents, etc. Mac she is drawn to but miscommunication or no communication and honesty tells the tale. "

" I can see why Barr has been called the best outdoor mystery writer. Don't know how big that niche is, but she fills it with well-told tales. This was an ideal chaser to our recent trip to Yosemite. "

" We should be as tough and smart in middle age as Anna Pigeon! "

" I enjoyed it as I do all of Anna Pigeon's books "
