It was an easy no brainer listen. Overall enjoyed it, it was engaging enough. I liked it enough to listen to the next one.

Hard to get into but it’s so far very good once I got into it - had to listen to a few chapters more than once because I kept spacing out.

Started out great, fizzled at the end. I enjoyed it but it became too floofy.

In all fairness, I didn’t finish, I could not get into the writing and the characters. It was too shallow and surface and not worth listening to. I googled the plot after I decided to call it quits and I’m glad I didn’t finish the story. I know the characters mentioned their age in the beginning but I was unaware that they were elderly residents in a retirement community. The characters were missing a sense of depth that I like. The narrator is good- she narrated magpie murders which I loved.

This is my first Sherlock Holmes book. It was hard to get into at first but it was a very enjoyable listen and I’m sad it’s over. Great listen.

Great book, I figured out who and why but there are so many details that it was still engaging until the end. Rory is an incredible reader.

Not one of his best. I love Stephen King but some of his books are not as good as others. This is one of the ones that are just meh.

My son had to read this for school so I decided to listen to alongside. I had to remind myself that in the 1970’s people were less mindful of their biases. Raskin has moments where her writing is culturally insensitive. This is my gripe with the book.

This story itself began slow and got better as it neared the end when it focused purely on solving the puzzle. It is a little wacky but overall in retrospect, I did enjoy the story.
