fun story.... but terrible MS pronunciations

I love this series, probably bc I found several signed copies of the books in my mom's things after she passed away.
But, I can't sit by for one more book and not say "it's BILUXI not Bilahxi." The author is from Mississippi, but she must have gotten such in a contract with the narrator. it's like nails on a chalkboard for this 5th generation Mississippian 😂

Trouble In The Land of Dixie

Haines keeps her mysteries interesting while recognizing the tangled racial vines that are a part of her Southern heritage. Her haint Jitty continues to give fashion &
relationship advice giving each story a lighthearted edge which adds to my enjoyment of these engaging mysteries.

I love this series!!!

For some reason our lovely narrator changed up her accent a bit on this performance. Nevertheless, it was another winner. I’m already downloading the next episode of Sarah Booth.

Fabulous twists

Great listen! Kate Forbes, as usual, does a phenomenal job of portraying the characters and engaging the audience!

Ok

The Sarah Booth Delaney series is pretty good book but the pace is very slow.

A bit of disappointment.

I didn't notice this with the former books, but I discovered that listening to the reader was very hard. It was obvious that she needs to slow down the pace of her reading so she doesn't have to take so many breaths when she runs out of air! It's not nice to listen to her take an obvious breath every so often.
