this series is awesome!

thanks to to author and the two different narrators!! Love the mysteries with a touch of romance!!

Great unexpected plot

Different plot twists kept me engaged throughout. Can not wait to read her next book!

Love this series

The challenges of Brooklyn as a book restorer and the fact she is known for discovering dead bodies make for fun and fascinating stories.

then men's voices are awful.

Would you consider the audio edition of Ripped from the Pages to be better than the print version?

I have done both and wouldn't pick one over the other.

Any additional comments?

the men's voices are awful and really do detract from the story. while the English boyfriend is supposed to be a james bond type in looks and action, every time he speaks in the story I cringe. it's the only real downside.

Plot problems

The author needs a better editor to catch discrepancies in the plot and to keep from making her intelligent characters stupid just to further the plot. This would have been an interesting story even without the 2nd murder. Kudos to her for an ending without the main character in danger, tho.

you never know what's going to happen

THE WAR will never be over until the world changes. that.'s why we need to remember.

Ripped from the Pages

I love a good "who done it," especially when I can't figure out "who done it." I look forward to another novel by this author.
