Panpan

I‘ve had the Martha‘s Vineyard mystery series on my to read list for years, so thought I would take advantage of listening to the first one through my Audible membership. Oh boy…not for me!

Victoria I think is supposed to represent the stereotypical “crusty” New Englander - hardy, sarcastic, and set in one‘s way. I never warmed to her, and the harbor master continuously calling her sweetheart was not endearing. Sad to pan, but it felt like ⬇️

Librarybelle ⬆️ the story started almost in the middle of the story, as if I should have known the characters before the book. I had to double check this was the first in the series. Maybe this is better read rather than listened to - every time I listen to Davina Porter narrate a book that is not of the Outlander series I am confused. But, I think my qualms with this book go beyond any confusion I had with the narration and keeping the characters straight. 8mo
Hooked_on_books Well that‘s a bummer. Cute cover, at least. 8mo

Hooked_on_books I love Grann and love an adventure story, but this one was a little lackluster for me, too. I‘m with you on not quite getting the hype. 11mo
TheAromaofBooks Great progress!! 11mo
