🎧 The Safari by Jaclyn Goldis #JaclynGoldis #ConnorBrannigan @kittyhendrix1.bsky.social #NancyLinari #SaskiaMaarleveld @thevoiceoftimpaige.bsky.social #ShainaSummerville #LoveAudiobooks

The Safari looked so interesting with its African setting and mystery genre. There weren’t as many animals or much safari activity but the mystery was there like a remote place with bodies dropping. A wealthy family comes to their retreat lodging in South Africa. Their company has worked with sustainable, eco friendly products particularly clothing. […]

🎧 Overkill by JA Jance @JAJance ‏#KarenZiemba @simonaudio.bsky.social #LoveAudiobooks @SimonAudio

I have read all three series by J.A. Jance for a long time. I always recommend to read series in order. This Ali Reynolds series is probably the least realistic of the three, and is not based on law enforcement personnel like the other series. I still love it. Ali was a news anchor who […]

🎧 The Paradise Problem by Christina Lauren @ChristinaLauren @PattiMurin #JonRoot @SimonAudio #LoveAudiobooks

I always enjoy the life fiction I read from this author. The stories are romances but much more, with realistic aspects of issues people have. The Paradise Problem goes a bit off the believable since the hero, West is a multi-millionaire. The badly behaving wealthy are a bit cliche in some aspects. West, despite his […]

🎧 One of Our Own by Lucinda Berry @lucindaberry22 @ajcookofficial @Tessa_Albertson @SimonAudio #LoveAudiobooks

Wow. There are lots of triggers in this story, if you need to know. One of Our Own was suspenseful. I can’t imagine trying to help a young girl who is so distraught she wants to kill herself. Especially when you have lost a sister to suicide. Felicia could really relate to the girl and […]

🎧 The Search Party by Hannah Richell @hannahrichell @BethEyre #JamieParker @SimonAudio #LoveAudiobooks

I saw this one and couldn’t resist listening to it myself. The setting is one I like and the narration would match that location. The Search Party had a bit of the old friends go away and they start losing people. It wasn’t quite like that though. The timeline is a bit of back and […]

I was excited to listen to this shorter story which I thought was about a crime podcast. #CrimeTime is the tag of the crime podcast created by Nadiya’s half brother, Chase. Nadiya is a successful mystery writer and has been estranged from her father, who went to prison for his crimes. She has refused to […]

🎧 The Outsider by Stephen King @StephenKing #WillPatton @SimonAudio #LoveAudiobooks @AudiobookMel

Trigger warning: Suicide I grabbed this book after realizing that there were more Holly Gibney books after reading Holly (book 3). After reading this, I’m not sure I would call it a Holly Gibney book, but it does have her as a character in the second half of the story. The Outsider follows a small […]
