Chick lit or mystery?

Actually, it is both. If the Shoe Kills is a lighthearted and fun novel that is mostly about women's relationships with each other and with the opposite gender. But there is also a murder mystery to be solved. This book is fun listening especially after the four thrillers I listened to earlier in the week. It is a nice break. Narration is perfect!

Light and Fun

Any additional comments?

This series is just delightful. No, it's not fine literature, but if you're driving or doing chores, it's highly entertaining. The characters are nuanced enough and the stories are interesting. Please hurry up with #4!!!

A bit the same.

I enjoyed the first book a lot. A nice listen in the car on trips. The second one was good. This one seems to be much the same. The heroine is portrayed as a bit dull and flighty. The other characters don't like her. The boyfriend wants to wrap her in gauze and keep her safe at home. The story line is a bit predictable from the first two books: Same general story, Different names. I'll read the next one but no more if they stay predictable.

Another winner!

This book was just as good as the first. Kept me guessing until the end. Although the end seemed a little rushed. I love the house, her Shop and the town. I would recommend this series so far.

Another great addition

Lynn Cahoon is doing a wonderful job with character development. The characters become more like friends. I highly recommend this book to those who are fans of cozy mysteries.

Entertaining

Would you listen to If the Shoe Kills again? Why?

Maybe in a few years. I will forget the ending by then.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

Not on the edge of my seat, but certainly engaged.

Have you listened to any of Susan Boyce’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No idea. She does a fine job.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Don't wish to provide a spoiler.

Work Program and Planning for Thanksgiving

The third in the series finds Jill getting ready for the holidays and planning her first ever Thanksgiving dinner at her place. The mayor has put her in charge of a work program (to her dismay) and the guy that runs the charitable program, Ted Hendricks is a real jerk. He even tried to run over a local woman, who he barely missed. So when Jill finds the man dead in his car the following day, she was dismayed . . . to put it lightly. The police at first thought he had committed suicide, but it wasn't long until they learned he had been murdered . . . and Jill and her boyfriend, Detective Greg King are at odds about the investigation. He wants her out of it . . . and she can't help herself 😅 . . . there are clues everywhere. Jill's aunt, Jackie gets caught up in the holiday spirit and starts a book drive for the children and their families, when she learns that one of the interns has a need, and includes a nearby children's center, as well. Fun listen 😁

Awful

It might be different with a different narratetor. She sounded to me she was very nervous, or was new at this. I would not recomend this to anyone. There was nothing funny or cute. I finally just gave up. I would like to return it.

Book 3 of series, wasn't crazy about plot this tim

story line was okay but maybe in truth I missed a part.....I love the characters and in audible I love the reader whose voice inflections make the characters jump off the page. xan't wait for next one which I will start on today!
