Good Cozy Mystery

This can be a standalone but it is in the series by Meredith Potts. I love the books that are lighthearted, clean and enjoyable. Her chracters are believable, the narration keeps your interest till the end. A restauant critic is killed and sh has to solve the case. Hope works withher brother and they have a close relationship. You will never know ti the end who did the murder. You will enjoythis in Audible or just reading it. I love both her Audible or kindle books. SL Crawley does an smazing job with the narration.

Short Cozy Mystery Hits the Spot

**I was given a free copy of this audiobook in exchange for an unbiased review.**

This is a cute cozy mystery. It moves along at a fast-pace and made my drive today pass quickly. This isn’t my usual genre, but it might be from now on. I liked the protagonist and a fast-paced mystery that leaves no loose ends is great! Joe and Hope are a great team.

This books is fairly short, and it’s perfect for a commute or chore day around the house.

Would definitely read a Meredith Potts book again.

I love this series. It keeps me entertained through out the book. The narrator does a fantastic job. I look forward to the next book.

It's been awhile since I've listened to a Hope Hadley mystery! Murder of a Restaurant Critic: Hope Hadley Cozy Mystery Series, Book 7 by Meredith Potts, narrated by S. L. Crawley is a fun listen, and at just over an hour and a half, it can easily be completed in one sitting. I'll let you read the plot description on your own, but just know that the storyline is fast-moving, and it's a complete mystery from start to finish...no cliffhangers. Yay! Cozy mysteries are my favorite books to listen to, but sometimes I feel like I get stuck in a rut listening to the same story over and over again, just different characters. This Hope Hadley mystery was a nice change of pace, and I really enjoyed it.

The narration by S. L. Crawley was good throughout, but in some places, it was outstanding. The voices and inflection in the second half of the book were awesome - bring on some more! Can't wait to listen to the next in series!
