Drop Dead Sisters

The Finch Sisters, Book 1

De: Amelia Diane Coombs, Mindy Kaling - introduction

Narrado por: Soneela Nankani

“Compulsively readable, Drop Dead Sisters is perfect for readers who love shows like Bad Sisters and Dead to Me. A mystery about three estranged sisters who accidentally kill someone? Yes, please.”—Mindy Kaling

Three sisters reunite on a family vacation and rekindle their relationship the only way they know how—by covering each other’s tracks in a real-life murder mystery not even they can figure out.

Remi Finch has spent the better part of her adult life avoiding family—especially her sisters. They just don’t click. Besides, her unconventional upbringing and major anxiety have convinced Remi that she can’t build a relationship with anyone. Period.

When her parents plan a family reunion camping trip to celebrate their anniversary, Remi’s willing to reconnect, if only because she doesn’t have a choice. But then a dead body turns up at their campsite, and their sisterly bonding kicks into high gear.

No one knows the whole story, but the Finch women are prepared to cover up the pieces before anyone tries to put them together. It’s a precautionary measure, probably unnecessary. Nobody else was there, so how could they have seen anything?

Between old grudges and new dynamics, a handsome park ranger, and a body that won’t stay hidden, Remi is about to learn that nothing strengthens family ties quite like crime.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Soneela Nankani expressively performs this heartfelt and humorous family drama, making it a compulsive listen.… Nankani uses well-timed pauses to express sarcasm and add to the comedic effect. She provides great character differentiation of the family members. Hopeful tones reflect the sisters' determination to get through the weekend.”—AudioFile Magazine

“Three siblings scramble to dispose of a dead body in this delightful mystery debut… Coombs laces the proceedings with plenty of black humor, à la Alfred Hitchcock’s The Trouble with Harry, and works in surprisingly moving meditations on sisterhood. Here’s hoping a sequel is in the works.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review)

“[Amelia Diane] Coombs makes her adult debut with this delightful series starter with Hiassen-level wacky characters and plot twists and a heroine readers will root for.”—Booklist

The reality of that kind of family and the main character

The ending :) And that the family Stood together in spite of their differences .. this story was so real

It was a fun easy read

A bit too much contrived hand wringing toward the end. Other than that it was fine as a light mystery.

Good book!

I’m more of a thriller listener and this book was more of a love story/family drama vibes for my personal taste. A cute book, funny and I defiantly had no idea how it was going to end! Loved the characters and the surprises at the end!!

Dumb but goofy

I think the narrator is the only reason I stuck it out till the end.

The story is goofy and lighthearted at times but has some problems with development.

Happy ending galore even with a family of dumb azz murderers. The youngest sister is the worst and I'm sure I'm supposed to empathize with her story, I just couldn't.

The instance romance was gawd awful and was strictly to give the youngest sister something, anything to make her less pathetic.

wonderful reader. fun story

enjoyed this book at every level. Fun, well thought
out characters. Excellent reader performance. good fun.
