Great Cozy Story!
The Worthless Painting by Erika M Szabo is a very compelling short listen. I loved how the author added so many details that I could visualize with this book. The story pulled me in from the very beginning and I loved the twists that were in the book.I was really happy with the direction this book went and had not expected the ending. Kudos to the author for that great surprise!
Jessica Green did an admirable performance bringing the characters to life with her voice. I found she added the right emotions. I requested this review copy audiobook and have voluntarily written this review. I will definitely listen to more books by this author and narrator.

Short but sweet.
Would've liked more depth of the characters. Bit too obvious. Sweet poor girl, rich bitch. Had promise though. Needs revisited and the paranormal aspect of the painting investigated.
