Publisher's summary

Meet Darryl Graham, or as his new neighbors call him, The Man in 3B.

Darryl's new to the Jamaica, Queens building, but from day one he's made quite an impression on his neighbors. He has made it very clear he greatly values his privacy, but he is the man every woman wants and every man wants to be, so inquiring minds want to know. Unfortunately, in Darryl's world, what you know can hurt you. And when he winds up dead, those inquiring minds become the prime suspects.

Darryl has just moved into a Jamaica, Queens, apartment building and his neighbors, both male and female alike, can't stop talking about him. From his down-to-earth personality to his extreme attractiveness to his undeniable swag, Darryl is the man every woman wants and every man wants to be.

Darryl is quickly welcomed into the building and immediately becomes a part of each of the tenants' lives. Connie, an overweight and unhappy wife, turns to Darryl for help losing weight, hoping to try and fix her crumbling marriage. But when Darryl starts making Connie feel beautiful again, she questions whether or not her marriage is worth saving. Benny, a spoiled teenager, looks up to Darryl as a role model. When an unexpected event occurs, Benny is left questioning everything he's ever known. Krystal, Darryl's first love, wants to make things work with her current boyfriend. Yet having Darryl back in her life sends her happy home spiraling out of control. And, last but not least, Avery, Connie's husband, doesn't care about anyone or anything when a financial opportunity comes his way - that is, until he notices how much time his wife is spending with their new neighbor.

Everything seems to be going well, until someone is murdered, and everyone becomes a prime suspect.

Not the best but still decent.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, I would recommend this book. It was not horrible but all of his other titles have been so good that this one just did not measure up the same way in my opinion.

How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?

Either more characters or more content to the existing characters.

What does the narrators bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I just prefer audiobooks. With a good narrator it can come across as two friends talking.

Any additional comments?

Still worth reading.

Still a Good Listen!

I re-read this book to brush up the story line and get ready for the upcoming movie. Again I loved it! Can't wait for it to come to life on screen. 👍😌

AWESOME

Would you listen to The Man in 3B again? Why?

Yes. It was intense, unpredictable, enthralling, fun. I laughed and I held my breath. I could not put it down. I have read several books by this author, this is the best thus far. If you like Webber , you will love this book.

What other book might you compare The Man in 3B to and why?

I normally read historical novels so, none. This was a delightful surprise.

Which character – as performed by the narrators – was your favorite?

Darryl

If you could take any character from The Man in 3B out to dinner, who would it be and why?

Darryl. He was smart, kind, sensitive, thoughtful lover and a bad ass tug. But you would never know it was so.

Any additional comments?

Get this book. FYI The love scenes are HOT HOT HOT without being tacky.

Neighbors

Would you consider the audio edition of The Man in 3B to be better than the print version?

Yes. It's more interesting the book is narrated. Changes in voice give a clearer picture of the characters

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

Yes. I loved the way the writer gave detailed descriptions of all of the characters. It seemed as though everyone had a reason to kill Darryl.

Have you listened to any of the narrators’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

The narration was good. I'd never heard any o f the narrators
before.

If you could take any character from The Man in 3B out to dinner, who would it be and why?

Darryl. He seemed to have the ability to connect with different people on so many different levels. Had he channeled his energy differently, he could have been a great businessman.
