What did you love best about Peete and Repeat?

The characters have always been comfortable with each other, and now their roles as characters are equally so. The humor is great , and the mystery and daily camping activities blend well. Great read/listen.

Group of retired friends take their trailers to a familiar campground and get involved in a murder investigation. All of the characters are totally believable, and so are their interactions. The weaving of the background of those who become the victims is not seamless, but it works anyway. It was good, and the length was perfect!
I have the audio version, and Michelle Babb is perfect in portraying each character and the narratives.

RVing is not for the Faint of Heart

Where does Peete and Repeat rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Is it Shakespeare? Is it Michael Connelly? No, it isn't... but, that's not a bad thing! This is well plotted, with characters that you become very fond of throughout the outstanding series. Mystery that itches to be solved. Settings and circumstances that call out to me, anyway.

What other book might you compare Peete and Repeat to and why?

The other books in the Frannie Shoemaker series.

What about Michelle Babb’s performance did you like?

Michelle appropriately keeps the story and characters moving. I can visualize the action taking place. Her voice work adds to and doesn't detract from a listener's enjoyment.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Fishing pole, check... camping stove, check... body bags, check...

Any additional comments?

I have many of this series on my Kindle as e books. The audio versions are all well done and my suggestion is, if you enjoy light mysteries, to check this series out.

Thanks for the opportunity to listen and review!

Another good Campground Mystery

These are a fun group of people who always seem to have their noses in a mystery. They want to know about everyone and understand everything that goes on around them and always find a mystery. I often found myself thinking, "she sure is nosy" but that is what makes these stories fun. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

RV Camping - Fun, Mystery, and PIE!!

Where does Peete and Repeat rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I love the mystery. As I'm listening, I am trying to solve the case, but alas was not able to get the final answer right. The fact I couldn't figure the whole answer out, made this a fun book to listen to.

What about Michelle Babb’s performance did you like?

She brings the characters to life by giving them their own unique voices. This is something I love when listening to books. She keeps the story flowing and is a great narrator.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

You can't help but laugh at the antics this group gets into. Listening to the story makes me want pie and reminds me of camping with my boys.

Great Series!

Any additional comments?

This is a great book; this is the third book in the Frannie Shoemaker Campground Mystery series written by Karen Musser Nortman and narrated by Michelle Babb. A biking and camping trip to southeastern Minnesota turns into double trouble for Frannie Shoemaker and her friends as she deals with a canoeing mishap and a couple of bodies. Strange happenings in the campground, the nearby nature learning center, and an old power plant complicate the suspect pool and Frannie tries to stay out of it - really - but what can she do? After all, she is only curious, but sometimes it isn't just cats who have trouble with that!

This is a great book with a wonderful story and well developed characters. The story flowed very well and was very enjoyable. This book will keep you reading long into the night and you will not want to put this book down until you finish. This was such a great read and full of surprises. The narrator did a wonderful job with this book. She did a great job with the different voices of each character in this book. It was very easy to listen to and I didn’t want to stop listening until the end.

If you are looking for a great book with well-developed characters then you need to listen to this book. I am looking forward to listening to the next book by this author and narrator. I voluntarily reviewed an advanced reader’s copy of this book. The free book held no determination on my personal review.

Really enjoyed this story

Who was your favorite character and why?

Frannie, I love women sleuth stories.

Any additional comments?

As always Ms. Babb is one of my favorite narrators. I actually couldn't put this one down. I was provided this audiobook at no charge by the author, publisher and/or narrator in exchange for an unbiased review via Audiobook Boom.

Still enjoying this series

I'm still enjoying this series, and have downloaded the next in the series. This is a great cozy/mystery that I highly recommend.

Great read

Any additional comments?

Peete and Repeat by Karen Musser Nortman was another great Read by the author. Frannie finds herself in another murder mystery while camping. I really enjoyed reading Frannie trying to solve the mysteries and can't wait to read more by the author.

A great Cozy Mystery

I really liked this more then I did The Blue Coyote. We don't have to wait long before the bodies are found and the mystery begins. I guessed who did it quite quickly but I still liked it. I found it to be funny at times. This is a type of story that would be good made into a film, it has the background the different characters and the amateur detectives.
Michelle Babb does a great job in bring the characters to life.

Would recommend to all!
No language/sexual content, with some mild violence.

"She watches a lot of CSI."

Any additional comments?

Another enjoyable outing with the keen campers, Frannie and Larry Shoemaker and friends.
Enjoying their latest happy camping, replete with eating, walking, cycling (and pies), it isn't long before they discover a body or two and begin sleuthing.
Good characters and dialogue, gentle, if predictable, story, humour and an overall interesting cozy mystery
The excellent Michelle Babb again helps bring the protagonists to life.
Just right for a light-hearted listen.
