Very enjoyable

A collection of books, well done mysteries. Women, work, and history of nineteenth century efforts to restrain, contain, and improve women’s place in British Society.

A very nice surprise of historical fiction especially for women!

Excellent series!! Highly recommend ! Five stars all around! A very nice surprise of historical fiction especially for women. A must series to keep in every woman's library collection.

Some Interesting twist, some predictability, tiny amount of romance

I would rate these clean reads mysteries a step up from cozy as they do get serious. However, they are hardly today’s thrillers. In my opinion they walk a good line for a kind of gothic novel style mystery.

The first three books were a combination of pros and cons, guessing the villain early, middle, and wrong until the end (which was a pleasant change).

For me the biggest drawback is the last of romance. It takes slow burn down to just red coals burning. In this aspect I think we would get so much more out of also hearing the narrative of James. For me, it’s just too slow, hence the lost star.

Attention to detail

The attention to detail was excellent. Everything from clothing, personalities and locations, etc. Just loved everything about this series.

Fun and easy listening

Great narrator, story and characters. I will look to see if there are more in the series!

Penny Green Mysteries books 1-3

I love this Audi since it has the first three books in this series. The stories set in Regency England have good plots and keep you engaged until the very end when the case is solved. You will live these characters as they dance around the possibility of a deeper relationship. The audiobook is narrated by a gifted, narrator who drags you deep into the stories. Well worth the purchase oruce! Well written by Emily Organ, audio by Tantor Media.
