Guilty as Framed is book #11 in the Anastasia Pollack Crafting Mystery series by Lois Winston. Narrated by Alexandra Bitton-Bailey.

Anastasia is picking out tile for her home remodel when a stranger tries to barge into her house looking for someone she doesn’t know. It’s the first in a string of odd happenings and dead bodies she has to deal with. I’m so happy the dog has gotten away from Anastasia’s crazy mother-in-law. This was an interesting mystery. I guessed the guilty party early on but had no idea how complicated this mystery would be. The ending was sweet.

I enjoyed the narration by Alexandra Bitton-Bailey. I plan to listen to more books in this series.

A Weekend Getaway, Another Murder is book #10 in the Sheridan Hendley Mystery series by Christa Nardi. Audiobook narrated by Alyssa Baumann.

Sheridan and Brett plan a quiet getaway that turns out to be anything but quiet. A little dog finds them and leads them to a crime scene. This was a chilling case with a couple of surprise characters. I listened to the audiobook and the narration was excellent. I had no trouble distinguishing who she was voicing. I’ve read most of the books, but I’ll be listening from the beginning.

Enjoyable Christmas story

Christmas at Baskerville Hall is book #15 in the Sherlock and Lucy Mystery series by Charles Veley and Anna Elliott.

This was an entertaining story. I’ve read several of the books, but this was my first time listening to one and I really enjoyed it. A holiday getaway with murder and an incident that puts lives in jeopardy. Lucy and Sherlock need to solve the mystery in order to have a Merry Christmas.

The narration was easy to listen to and I didn’t have any trouble differentiating between characters.

Don't Judge a Book by Its Hover: Case 1: Bookshop Con is book #1 in the Witchy Expo Services Mysteries series by Amy McNulty.

Nimue Toothaker’s grandmother retires and names her nemesis, Ren Southern Co-Head General Managers of Witchy Expo Services. In their first Expo, a famous author dies. Nimue needs to find out if it was an accident or murder because the whole town depends on the success of Bookshop Con.

I haven’t read anything like this where witches and warlocks have conventions for humans. Having the first book be about a bookshop convention was fun. It’s an interesting cast of characters and the fact that they have to work together to make the Expos a success is an intriguing twist.

The narrator is good, just seems like she draws out the last word of a sentence and it is a bit distracting.

Wine and Dead, Another Murder is book #5 in the Sheridan Hendley Mystery series by Christa Nardi. Audible version narrated by Jeanne Pilgrim Mayo.

There’s a murder and some grape vines have been poisoned. Sheridan gets involved with the help of friends and they visit various wineries investigating.

I really enjoyed this story. It has wine, desserts, dog shelter, and a good mystery. I like The relationship between Sheridan, Brett, and Maddie.

The one negative for me was when the narrator did the male voices. Brett and his partner are a large part of the book and Brett’s partner, Fabry’s voice seemed really odd and I never got used to it.

Story - 5 stars
Narration - 4 stars

The Chocolate Magic Cafe is book #1 in the Chocolate Magic Cozy Mystery series by Olivia Swift. Audible versions narrated by Sarah K. Lynn.

Magda Caraganic inherited a stable and decided to convert it into a cafe to sell her chocolates. She found she shared it with a ghost cat that some could see and others couldn’t.

I’ve read later books in the series and I really enjoy them. It was fun to start at the beginning and see how everything started, both with the cafe and relationships. I bought the book, but hadn’t had time to read it, so the audiobook version worked well for me.

The narrator did an excellent job. I thought she handled all the voices well, including the male voices. I would listen to other books narrated by her.

I own the eBook, but I received a free copy of this audiobook via StoryOrigin and am voluntarily leaving an honest review.

The Couple in Cabin 2124 is book #4 in the Patricia Fisher Mystery series by Steve Higgs.

This is the first book I’ve read/listened to in the series and I really enjoyed it. The characters are great and it was an interesting mystery. There were some very humorous moments that made me laugh out loud.

I listened to the Audible version and the narration was very good.

Beware the Signs: An Urban Fantasy for Magic Fans (Twisted Book 2) by Jo Ho picks up right after What Doesn’t Kill You leaves off.

I listened to the Audible version and it was like listening to an episode of a TV show. Allyson Voller was very good as the narrator.

The girls are going to their first day of classes and learning what their new powers are, though they have no control of them. They also learn more about the bag guy, Michael.

From Garden to Grave is the first book in the The Leafy Hollow Mystery series by Rickie Blair.

I listened to the audiobook and really enjoyed the narration.

Verity Hawkes is having a difficult time and things get off to a rough start when she returns to Leafy Hollow to see about her missing aunt.

Her aunt’s home is rundown and she has to deal with that as well as trying to save her aunt’s lawn care business.

There is an interesting twist/cliffhanger at the end of the book and Kim anxious to read the next book to see what happens.

The one complaint for me is that I don’t like it when the protagonist puts herself in dangerous situations and in this case they actually did something illegal. I’ll hoping it doesn’t continue in future books.

What Doesn't Kill You: An Urban Fantasy for Magic Fans (Twisted Book 1) by Jo Ho was an interesting story.

It reminded me of some supernatural TV shows I enjoy. This first book is primarily introducing us to 4 young women going to college. Each has their own issues and circumstances draw them together. It does end with a cliffhanger. I look forward to reading/listening to the next book in the series.

I listened to the audio book and the narration was very good.
