Murder of a Stacked Librarian

A Scumble River Mystery, Book 16

De: Denise Swanson

Narrado por: Christine Leto

There’s no place like Scumble River at Christmastime, and this year, school psychologist Skye Denison has twice as much to celebrate - and to do. In addition to the usual holiday frenzy, Skye’s wedding to police chief Wally Boyd is less than a week away - that is, if the groom isn’t too busy working to attend. The town’s sexy new librarian, Yvonne Osborn, has just been murdered, and the list of suspects is piling up faster than late fees on an overdue book.

Yvonne’s strict sense of right and wrong annoyed some townspeople and infuriated others. Did her high standards lead to her death? Skye is distracted by worries about what havoc the crazy Dooziers will wreak on her wedding day and whether she’ll fit into her dress. But Skye can’t afford to leave any page unturned because unless she works quickly to expose the scheming killer, her happy ending may be put on permanent hold.…

a good read

The narrator was pleasant. The story flowed. light read would read another book by author

Loved the characters, light read, look forward

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

Time was well spent. I like to escape the complexities of my real life and enjoy sweet, simple, stories about characters with good morals. All unusual things for the real world we live in. These books help me slow down, think about other things, believe there is still goodness out there.

What did you like best about this story?

The love story of course. A single chief of police with no kids! Who could ask for more. It was funny to hear about a female lead character that had the same issues with her overbearing mom as I do.

Which scene was your favorite?

Hmmmm, Boyfriend coming home after a long hard day at work and just those two enjoying small pleasures together. Drinking coffee in the morning, talking to each other about the days activities, riding around in the police car together. Him taking her seriously, treating her like an equal and trusting her with details of the case.

Do you think Murder of a Stacked Librarian needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

It was my first book by this author. I will start all of them from the beginning.

Any additional comments?

Great job. Start a new series about my life. It's crazy. Meant for a book.

Why so many 5 stars?

I really expected to love this; as so many others did. I assume the characters would have been more layered if I had read the books from the beginning (Book 1). They just didn't seem to have any depth. While the plot was well done and interesting, it was hard to find the good parts beneath the uninteresting dialog. I mean do we really care how many bites it takes to finish eating a cookie? I was so pleased when it was over so I could start listening to something more engaging.

Another good book

Denise Swanson keeps her series fresh and entertaining. Skye and Wally worked well together. I'm glad Simon has a new love interest. I can't wait to listen to the next book.
