tori Carrington mystery-

mystery with a little romance.... characters are very likable. I have read all the books in the series.

loved the story... hate this narrator

I love the Sophie Metropolis series. I've thoroughly enjoyed all of the books. I just wish they had kept the original narrator. her dialects and phrasing seemed more authentic

A Little Bland

I read, and enjoyed, all of the first 4 Sofie Metropolis stories. So much so that, when Love Bites did not come out in audio format I waited...and waited. When it finally came out on Audible I happily surrendered one of my credits to listen. Unfortunately, I was disappointed with how bland and boring it was. The series has a faint hint of a Greek Stephanie Plum but without the laugh-out-loud moments that make the Plum series so enjoyable. I am a fan of supernatural fiction, so the vampire angle is intriguing, but the series really needs some sort of boost. Even the ending was boring, to the point where I was sort of glad it was over. I may or may not read Queen's Ransom, but I doubt I will sacrifice another credit for it. Maybe on Kindle...

In spite of all that, Vanessa Johansson did a very nice job narrating this story.

New Narrator

Good story love the suspense and wimsey. Having a different Narrator for me changed Sofia's personality.

Readers Keep Getting Worse!

It's bad enough when they keep switching readers in a series, but the readers for Sofie Metropolis books keep getting worse. I can barely listen to Vanessa Johansson. Thank God I can speed it up to get through the story faster!
