Obsession, Deceit, and Really Dark Chocolate Audiobook (Unabridged)

" The third book in a series, it was VERY slow to start, but once it picked up I enjoyed it. It was a bit too long, and the author attempted to add some psychological complexity to the main character that didn't really work. Still, it was enjoyable, although I wouldn't recommend it unless the reader has read the first two books. "

" Light-hearted mystery with an amateur sleuth--good reading for a sleepy Saturday afternoon. "

" LIke it as much as her first. "

" I was still guessing at the end. This was better than the second book in the series. I listened to it on a recent business trip. "

" I've read of couple of Kyra Davis' quirkily titled books with Sophie Katz as the part black/part Jewish protagonist. Sophie's day job is writer, but she also plays amateur detective--something her non-boyfriend-boyfriend, Anatoly, has problems with. Sophie reunites with Anatoly in this book. I didn't read this series in sequence, so I was surprised to find they had parted company for a while. This time, Sophie is sleuthing on behalf of an old friend, who suspected her husband was cheating. With her penchant for trouble, of course, the husband in killed in Sophie's presence. And we follow the breadcrumbs until the mystery is solved. This is fun, light reading. Or...maybe I'm partial to titles like this and Vows, Vendettas and a Little Black Dress, or any of the other books about Sophie's misadventures. "

" Eh. I didn't really like this one which makes me sad because I really liked the first two. It took the whole first half of the book for me to get interested at all. It kind of dragged. And I thought the whole furry thing was pretty stupid. However the last paragraph did get me interested in what might happen in the next one, but I was so disappointed in this one that I don't know if I'll actually read the next one! "

" There was a lot of good twists and turns and the very end definitely leaves you interested in the next book but it was pretty predictable .. I mean, it was so similar to another book I read that I knew who was the bad guy the moment he was introduced .. oh well, it was good entertainment for a few days at work .. and as usual Gabra Zackman is a cool narrator "

" This is an amazing series. Book 3 doesn't disappoint. "

" I think this was probably the funniest of the Sophie Katz books so far. The storyline also provided a little more insight and depth to the two main characters. "

" I wasn't sure I was going to like this one when it started getting all political on me, but once the whole furry thing came into play I was glad I stuck with it. And I'm very interested in Sophie's relationship with Anatoly. Reminds me of my own in the marriage sense. I really like this series. "

" I like most of the story but the narrator wasn't my favorite and the "drama" when she read the title of each new chapter was very off putting. "

" Not as good as her first two. "

" I love Kyra Davis' sense of humor. This is an easy read, enjoyable, and just plain fun. "

" While this wasn't as good as the first two, it's entertaining at the least. "Obsession, Deceit, and Really Dark Chocolate" delves into the world of politics and more importantly, scandal. Always fun. "

" This was an entertaining read that had me laughing out loud, literally, a few times. It was a little "scattered" in plot, and felt like it could have been tighter, but overall, it was an enjoyable read. "

" Political stuff is definitely not my favorite subject, but the author kept me interested throughout the story. I guessed who the murderer was before the ending, though. "

" Finished this weekend. Not as good as the last one, but enjoyable and quick to read once I sat down with it. "

" I'm kind of lukewarm on this one, the first two were more entertaining I think. I still liked it, and will read the next one, but of the three so far, this one isn't my favorite. "

" The series isn't holding my interest, unfortunately... "

" a good fast read if looking for quick mystery to solve "

" I think I'm done with this series for a while. I didn't really like the main character. "

" I really like these books. Love the characters. Easy fun read. "

" I enjoyed this novel but not as much as I enjoyed Kyra's first two novels. I'm not sure why. On its own, it is still very entertaining and worth reading. "

" These books are such a guilty pleasure for me. Love Anatoly. The mysteries are always suspenseful too although this one was a bit overly political. Nonetheless a good light read! "

" This was a fun, short read. Like the rest of the Sophie Katz series, this was an entertaining murder mystery. "

" I enjoyed this book. Not as much as the previous one I had read though. I really enjoyed the whole "furry/plushy" concept because it was different from the usual stories. "

" Another fun installment to Sophie Katz. I did figure out the mystery before our sleuth Sophie, but for me this was still what I expected. I fun light read. This series is great if your looking for an uncomplicated laugh out loud book. "

" Is all the whole thinks about is sex? Between that and language this ended up being another book I didn't finish "

" Another great read in the Sophie Katz series.... "

" I have enjoyed all of the Sophie Katz books so far. This one is no exception. It gets extra points for mixing in Furries and Plushies. If you don't know those terms, google it. (I did!) I laughed for five minutes straight after that. Also Sophie gets Anatole back! yay!!! "

" I wasn't sure I was going to like this one when it started getting all political on me, but once the whole furry thing came into play I was glad I stuck with it. And I'm very interested in Sophie's relationship with Anatoly. Reminds me of my own in the marriage sense. I really like this series. "

" Political stuff is definitely not my favorite subject, but the author kept me interested throughout the story. I guessed who the murderer was before the ending, though. "

" I enjoyed this book. Not as much as the previous one I had read though. I really enjoyed the whole "furry/plushy" concept because it was different from the usual stories. "

" I enjoyed the third book in the Katz series. There are enough continuing characters for a sense of continuity, and plenty of unique new characters. I was confused enough that I had no idea who the murderer was until the end. "

" Another convoluted plot. The same annoying heroine. "

" I really like these books. Love the characters. Easy fun read. "

" This series continues to be laugh out loud funny and keeps me awake nights listening. Good reader. "

" I like most of the story but the narrator wasn't my favorite and the "drama" when she read the title of each new chapter was very off putting. "

" This character is FABULOUS! These books are FABULOUS!Chick Lit Amateur sleuth novel! With a Starbucks addiction and a hot Russian boyfriend/killer?!? "

" I didn't get involved as quickly as with her previous books, but it caught me eventually and was very entertaining. "

" Not my favorite in the series ... a little--scratch that--a lot weird and even once the whole murder plot had been revealed, I felt like I still didn't quite get it. "
