I'm a fan of the Agatha Raisin series and was excited to get both the ebook and audio versions from NetGalley. I know, greedy, right? But while I do enjoy reading with my eyes, sometimes I don't have the time to do it and some books end up being better in one or the other format.
This one, however, wasn't all that great in either. I wanted to love it - because Agatha is a hoot - but I didn't. I couldn't get into any of the mystery aspects and Agatha seemed more cranky than funny. Maybe it's me. I hope it is. And there's a bit of a plot twist toward the end that seemed to be a bit much. I don't know... I'll give the next one a shot and see how I feel about the series at that point.
If you haven't ever read one of the AR books but enjoy the show, don't jump in with this one. Go back to the beginning and start there.
Thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for hooking me up!
