Winter Study Audiobook

" I liked reading about Isle Royle in the winter, since visitors can't go in the winter, and I'm not likely to ever go there!! "

" Another win for Nevada Barr. I think her books have gotten darker as they go. This one takes place on Isle St. Royle in Lake Superior. It involves the ongoing winter study of the wolf and moose population. Exellent mystery and although you think you know who dun it, you do get twists too. "

" Yet another Anna Pigeon mystery which I loved! This one takes place during the winter months on Isle Royale National Park. It's a bit grizzly but what a story! You will not put it down! "

" A really great story even if parts were predictable. It does tend towards the loquacious. "

" I like all the Anna Pigeon books and have actually been to this national park, although over 20 years ago. As always in Barr's books the setting and characters are interesting but the plot is excessively convoluted. "

" I liked this quite a bit having been to Isle Royale. "

" A murder mystery set in in a national park, Isle Royal. Having backpacked this island I was curious how the story would unfold. "

" I love Nevada! She makes me feel like I'm in the park with her! I hope we don't have to wait too long for the next one. "

" Great book. Loved the winter scenes, snow-packed attempts to survive. "

" Either I've outgrown this author, or she just wasn't very good in this novel. Disappointing. "

" I usually enjoy Nevada Barr's books but I had trouble getting into this one. I'm glad to carried on reading it as I really liked the ending. "

" I think this was my favorite Anna Pigeon mystery. This book was filled with action to go along with the mystery.. "

" Maybe this wasn't one of her best books, but I so thoroughly enjoyed this book I couldn't put it down. It kept me on the edge of my seat with suspense and I loved lerning about the wolves. Great read. "

" Don't go to a cold northern uninhabited island to do a study of wolves during the winter, especially with unsavory characters. "

" I usually like Nevada Barr's books. But this one not so much. The plot was odd and unbelievable, the characters wierd and unlikeable, and all the irrelevant internal dialogue was distracting. I just found it rather tediuous. Too bad. "

" Great story. Very dark, but I love her writing especially all the details about the park system and the descriptions of nature. "

" Slow and wordy. "

" Anna Pigeon goes back to Isle Royal in Lake Superior, this time in the dead of winter to participate in a wolf study that has been ongoing for over 50 years. Suddenly, one of the team is found savaged by wolves. Is it the wolves, or another team member.Good, quick read. "

" kept me wondering the whole time "

" Anne let me raid her book collection when I helped her pack so I have quite a variety and am very grateful! This was weird and not my style but loved the Isle Royale setting and of course it did creep me out a bit, so something worked. "

" Her most intense book yet I think. Enjoyed Lake Superior and the wolf study as a setting for another Anna Pigeon novel. Like the strength of the main character, Anna; she never gives up but keeps trying to find a solution to a problem or situation. Good reminder for all of us! "

" slow getting started with the mystery part, but picked up and ended well "

" Enjoyed the Anna Pigeon series set in various national parks--Barr sets a great view of place in her stories. "

" Wow!! This had a great deal of violence in it. I did like the book--quite a 'chiller'. "

" Anna is sent to Isle Royale island in January to assist with the wolf/moose study which has been ongoing for 50 years. The wolves begin to act strangely, and Anna is convinced that something strange is also happening with the humans there too. "

" Set in a little known and well-described place, this was an intriguing mystery which ended up action-packed. It's a quick read, mostly because you don't want to put it down. "

" I really enjoyed this book. It had something of a supernatural element in it that I have never read in her work before. Nevada is a genre writer with a literary flair in her work. "

" Not as good as her others. A bit too violent for my taste. "

" Park Ranger, Anna Pigeon, discovers that she is getting older and the National Park that she loves, Isle Royale, is changing with the times, as well. I personally love Isle Royale, therefore, the update on the park was especially appreciated. "

" Eh. OK. I enjoyed the previous book because of the bike ride we did to the Natchez Trace, where the previous book was set. This book was basically the same formula: murder mystery in a national park, brave strong female ranger solves the case and gets beat up for her trouble. "

" I am finding I enjoy books written about areas of the country or world about which I know little or nothing. This had suspense, description of Lake Superior winters, and interesting characters. "

" I had a hard time getting into this latest book, but the end was riveting, as always. Love Nevada Barr's Anna Pigeon series! "

" I enjoy this series and thought this was one of the better novels. The park ranger heroine is likable and human, and the author clearly spent a lot of time researching Isle Royale and the long-term wolf study there. A gripping read. "

" This book started out very slow. but about halfway through is when I couldn't put it down. It was very entertaining and interesting to read! "

" I liked this book, but it took a long time to get going. The premise was interesting, and I've always liked this series, but this wasn't my favorite. "

" Reading before bed is not a good idea with this one but I can't stop myself. Things I don't enjoy and then dream baaaaad things about: disappearing study group members, freezing cold temperatures, cross country skiing. "

" Isle Royale is the location. Too violent for me. "

" too many characters, too much back story, too long to get to the mystery and conflict for me. "
