Oh I loved it!

Some mysteries or cozier than others. When a bubblegum Eres gets murdered prosperity and Ruben trying to solve the case. Behave I received this book yesterday and finished it last night. You will probably want to finish this in one sitting as once I got started I didn’t want to stop. Between the funny situations in the book in the great writing there’s a lot to like about it. Not to mention the clever ending. I thought I knew who did it, but I had no idea. When you read this book you will find all the reasons you like cozy mysteries to begin with. I loved it and can’t wait for the next one.

An Excellent Mystery

This audio book was well-written and had a great plot. The characters were likeable and quirky. The dialog between the characters had some obvious sexual innuendos, which would have come across as cheesy if they hadn't been so humorous. The plot was thrilling and original. It was hard to stop listening. The ending was a surprise. I would recommend this audio book to others.

Raising Prosperity

I loved this mystery. Prosperity Spartanburg is the new Forensic Pathologist, and is tasked with the case of helping solve the mystery. The Authors and Narrator have done a fantastic job at bringing the story and the characters to fruition. And the voices on the audio is fabulous. This is a real page turner with twists and turns. Its definitely a must read or listen.

SUSPENSFUL & WITTY

The plot and Prosperity are ones that keeps you on your toes. Suspenseful, witty and she is trying to solve another murder. Written with two authors and well done.

A Very Good Read

Raising Prosperity is a very well written book that flows like a story should. The story is a suspenseful read and a great mystery book. I think everyone will enjoy this book.

Quaint Mystery

Raising Prosperity was a quaint quick mystery. The storyline itself was cute but found it a little predictable and cliche'. I enjoyed the story's quirkiness but struggled a bit to really get into it.

A bit to quirky

I struggled with the concept of students making arrests and doing detctive work!? Most of the sexual innuendos could have been left as vague references.

My worst read of 2019

Raising Prosperity (A Quirky, Suspenseful, Thrilling Mystery with a Touch of Romance) The Prosperity Spartanburg Files, Book 1, my first read/listen from authors David F. Berens & Cherie Mitchell. Camilia Lalani’s narration made the 4-hour 33-minute tale bearable. The book, while not bad, was not good. I own another dozen of Beren’s books & eight more of Mitchell’s books, after reading this one I don’t see me reading any of those anytime soon. I was given an Audible copy of this book & am voluntarily reviewing it. (RIP Marley January 20, 2014 - July 24, 2018).
