Karen Commins
Needles and pins. Needles and pins. When a man marries, his troubles begin.
New York socialite Kit McNair decides to host an impromptu dinner party at the home of her friend, Jimmy Wilson, to cheer him up following his divorce. What could possibly go wrong?
Due to her ability to write enthralling mysteries, Mary Roberts Rinehart later became known as the Agatha Christie of America. When a Man Marries was based on the successful 1909 Broadway comedy Seven Days, which Rinehart cowrote with Avery Hopwood. In 1910 the book - with its delightfully satisfying blend of mystery, romance, and humor - was number 10 on the national best seller list.

The narrator was very good. The book lagged a little at times - the chipper pace got a bit sluggish here and there but overall it was an easy and very entertaining listen. This is my first Mary Roberts Rinehart book but not my last! I hope Karen Commins narrated more by her.
I was gifted this book in exchange for an honest review. Great gift!
Snarky in a good and funny way

This was a fun look into the lives of upper society, when they are thrown into unexpected circumstances. The orginal novel is in the public domain, so you know it was written many years ago but it makes you contemplate what would happen in our era. I found myself chuckling often while I listened.
The narration was well done, The characters were excellently portrayed.

The story is as much fun as an old 1930's movie farce or a Chevy Chase movie. The humor is only partly from the snarks and wiseassery, but situational as well. Pretty much along the lines of "if anything can go wrong--it will".
Take a group of friends of the privileged class with good intentions (but no one with brains except the main protagonist) in a big old house in NYC. Add in a cantankerous aunt and a visiting civil engineer, a hastily concocted scheme crafted of good intentions, enforced medical quarantine and no servants, paparazzi, missing jewels, and you have the basic elements. Well worth the read!!
Karen Commins gives a fantastic audio performance as narrator! She has all of the audio emotions down perfectly, and it's easy to know which *character* is verbalizing.

The narration was good except I would ask Ms Commins to get a bit more coaching on her rendition of an Irish accent. Besides that, it was a great reading.
So, all in all this was a most enjoyable book and it is worth a read/listen.

I was provided an audio version of this book in exchange for an honest review. The narration was good. The narrator did a good job with what she had to work with.
Based on this book I would not read others by this author.
