Family secrets step to the forefront in this dazzling mystery from New York Times best-selling author Charlaine Harris.

Sure enough, when her husband's niece shows up unexpectedly, drops off a baby, and disappears, Aurora is overwhelmed. And then the niece's husband turns up dead, having met his demise at the end of an ax blade. To find her niece, Roe and Martin retrace her steps from sunny Georgia back to snowy Ohio, where they will uncover dark family secrets - at their own peril.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"[A] gripping tale [in which] Harris mixes elements of a cozy and her darker themes with skill and panache." ( Publishers Weekly)
"Gossipy, blithe, often funnywith a wind-up thats fierce, shocking, and poignant. A winner for Harris this time out." ( Kirkus Reviews)

Just mad about the ending

I like the Aurora Teagarden books. But there was no reason to write that ending.

great story

I really did not like the ending. I wish Aurora could be happy and I really felt that Martin made her happy.

Spoiler Alert

I've enjoyed all the books in this series so far. Unfortunately, I read "Chad's" review and one of the major plot twists is revealed. Skip that review, if having part of the ending revealed is not your cup of 'Tea' (pun intended)! Otherwise, I enjoyed this book as much as the others in the series.

Great Story Teller

What made the experience of listening to A Fool and His Honey the most enjoyable?

I enjoyed the intricate plot and interesting characters. I had read the print edition some years ago, but I didn't realize that until I was three quarters through the audiobook.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Aurora Teagarden. She matured and changed as her literary life progressed through each book.

Which scene was your favorite?

The scene in which Aurora and her husband return home from a party to discover that shocking and puzzling events have occurred

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes.

Any additional comments?

I discovered Charlaine Harris' books in the late 1990's. Aurora Teagarden is my favorite character. I've always loved libraries. I was delighted to read mystery books that featured a librarian as the main character. I have read and enjoyed other series by Ms. Harris as well. I find her to be a great storyteller. I always enjoy a good story.

Shocking ending

I mean really shocking. If you ever plan to read more of the books, you must make sure this one gets read prior to later versions.

book 6 is another good one

my only complaint is about the death of a certain character. I know it is difficult to kill a character and I wonder how this will play out in subsequent books in the series. The story came together quite nicely although at times I felt like it was a stretch for all this near death experience to happen to one person. But then that is how it goes for the main character of a series, right? C Harris does a great job of convincing me of Roe being a real person. :)

Loved story and the narration. Great writer!

Would you consider the audio edition of A Fool and His Honey to be better than the print version?

I really love the audio versions. Yes I think better than the print.

What did you like best about this story?

All her stories are intriguing and keep you waiting for the next blow.

What about Therese Plummer’s performance did you like?

I enjoyed her narration. She captured the characters well I thought.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Honestly I've listened to them all and they all had their own special captivations for me.

Any additional comments?

I hope to see more of her stories on audible.com. I love hearing her stories.
