Death by Chocolate

Death by Chocolate, Book 1

By: Sally C Berneathy

Narrated by: Sarianna Gregg

Lindsay Powell's only secret is the recipe for her chocolate chip cookies, but she is surrounded by neighbors with deadly secrets. Suddenly Lindsay finds herself battling poisoned chocolate, a dead man who doesn't seem very dead, and a psycho stalker. Her best friend and co-worker, Paula, dyes her blond hair brown, hides from everybody, and insists on always having an emergency exit from any room. Secrets from Paula's past have come back to put lives in jeopardy. Determined to help Paula and to save her own life, Lindsay enlists the reluctant aid of another neighbor, Fred, an OCD computer nerd. In spite of his mundane existence, Fred possesses tidbits of knowledge about such things as hidden microphones, guns, and the inside of maximum security prisons. Lindsay needs more than a chocolate fix to survive all this chaos.

Quite an amusing tale

What was one of the most memorable moments of Death by Chocolate?

Rick bursting in toward the end.

What about Sarianna Gregg’s performance did you like?

Very warm and charmiing. Consumate actress played all the characters very well.

the narrator was great

the book was witty and had me laughing outloud a few times but my favorite was the narrator, she really brought the sassy Lindsey to life

Decent story, bad narration.

The story is fine, if a little predictable, but the narration is bad. Ms. Gregg makes her best friend sound like a hoarse mouse and the men like wooden soldiers. Painful to listen to.

WONDERFUL BOOK, THE READER WILL GROW ON YOU

Where does Death by Chocolate rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

The book is one of my favorite - the whole series is awesome, very funny!

Any additional comments?

One of my favorite authors - I can hardly wait for the next in the series. I love mysteries that make me laugh and this series does that. I didn't care for the reader at first but I love the book so much I kept listening and by the end of the book she had grown on me. She is able to do different voices to distinguish between characters and that is important to me. If you don't like the reader just keep listening but if you can't get used to her just read the book - you won't be sorry.

Death By Chocolate is a funny and wonderful story
