3 Amazing books

I was pleasantly surprised to find out there were three books in this purchase. All three were filled with twists and turns and very hard to stop listening to.

Laura Levine is awesome!

I loved the books, especially Laura’s. So fun to have these Christmas stories, I listen to them all year round. I hope they’re able to get the third book into audible soon.

It’s the Christmas season

The narrator has very clear voice that I can understand easily, most books don’t have that. I love mystery novels and this author is a great one. I’m also a huge fan of Stephen King and R.L. Stine

what is after chapter 14.

The first 14 chapters were the whole Hannah Swensen story. The chapters after that are other stories. I can only say I enjoyed the Hannah Swensen's story, it was a nice read. The other 2 stories were ok.

Liked but should not combine different writers.

I listened to first part as I am listening to the Hannah series in order. Was not interested whatsoever in other writers stories thrown in. Skipped rest and moved on to Carrot cake murder.
