The writing isn't exactly snappy, either. I do want to get through it as quickly as I can because of the long library waiting list.

My Mom is about 1/2 way through the book and says so far she hasn't read anything that hasn't already been in the public venue already. Put together though from an insider is interesting. I probably won't get to it before it's released back to the library as you can only have it out for 7 days.
I am currently listening through
Myrtle Clover cozy series by Elizabeth Spann Craig. I read the first book (which was not available in audio) and have been picking the others up from either Whispersync or sales. I love the stories and the characters but find the narrator way too slow. I've speeded it up and that helped. I just can't get my head around scifi or detective novels right now. Currently on book 4
Body In the Backyard where her yardful of gnomes get center stage.
