Not worth it

Love the Women’s Murder club and January LaVoy is amazing- as usual.

But tell me, why don’t make narrators have to be good at female voices? Meanwhile, LaVoy does make and female well.

Not sure it was worth it. The second story wasn’t bad. I didn’t like the ending and could read more about the Texas Ranger.

The 3rd story isn’t even worth listing to fall asleep to.

Just filler to sell a piece of garbage

It's obvious this series has run its course. James and Maxine It's time to retire the women's murder club. I will be returning this book.

Disappointed

Wanted a new women’s murder club book and got a short story with two others attached. Not as advertised! A package should be advertised as that.

Crappy story lines, not up to Patterson.

Not up to the unusual standard for author. I would not buy this again. Should have listened to sample before purchase.

Not Up to standards

Not James Patterson work. I have read most of the Women's Murder Club books and this just wasn't up to snuff.
