Listened for Fun (Library Book)
Overall Rating: 4.00
Story Rating: 3.75
Character Rating: 4.25
Audio Rating: 4.00 (Not part of the overall rating)
First Thought when Finished: Really strong beginning to a new to me cozy mystery series. :)
Story Thoughts: This was a fun little cozy mystery. Tricia was pretty smart and savvy which made her approach to the case both interesting and fun. I am not a big fan of the plot device used for the "who dun it" but it was still really easy to read. Great for an afternoon with a big glass of ice tea.
Character Thoughts: I really liked the characters of Murder is Binding. Tricia was easy to relate too even in her unlikable moments (yes she had a few) and her interactions with her sister, workers, and town people were great. I felt the side characters were really what shined and I hope we get to spend more time with them in the future.
Audio Thoughts:
I really liked Cassandra Campbell's narration and thought she was perfect for Tricia. She had the right tempo and cadence. I really enjoyed listening to this book on audio.
Final Thoughts: This was a good start to the series and I can't wait to continue.
