Enjoyed them all. Caroline Lennon does a great job narrating the books. Culprits are not obvious. The collection of vol 4-7 includes some of the recipes mentioned throughout the books. Fun light reading.

The mysteries of Egypt prove no match for the Emersons. A fun listen and interesting stories. I can’t imagine anyone but Barbara Rosenblat as Amelia. You’ll be smiling your way through all the books.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 934
For the first time, John Sampson is on his own. The brilliant crime-solving duo of Washington, DC’s, Metro PD and the FBI has a proven MO: Detective Alex Cross makes his own rules. Detective John Sampson enforces them. When military-style attacks erupt, brutally sidelining Cross, Sampson is sent reeling. The patterns are too random—Sampson’s friend, his partner, his brother—have told him. Don’t trust anyone. As a shadow force advances on the nation’s capital, Sampson alone must protect the Cross family, his own young daughter, and every American, including the president.

Sherri Van Ness, an unassuming girl from the burbs of Kansas who’s about to embark on the adventure of her life when she signs up to become a stewardess. But it’s much more turbulent than this doughy-eyed 19-year-old ever imagined as she tries to navigate past grouchy passengers, fly-by-night relationships, and the unforgiving, relentless, humiliating, monthly weigh-ins. Some dreams come true. Others require a vomit bag.

Hardly a day goes by when nine-year-old Laurent Lepage doesn't cry wolf. From alien invasions to walking trees to winged beasts in the woods to dinosaurs spotted in the village of Three Pines, his tales are so extraordinary no one can possibly believe him. Including Armand and Reine-Marie Gamache, who now live in the little Quebec village.

Loved the book - Narrator? Not so much
Reviewed: 11-03-17
I have thoroughly enjoyed this series by Louise Penny. I love Inspector Gamache and the residents of Three Pines. Sometimes I wish I could live there. I sorely miss Ralph Cosham as the narrator of the series. Sadly he passed away. According to the author Robert Bathurst was selected from among many. I wish they would go back and search for someone more French. The stories take place in Quebec - the characters particularly Gamache is French Canadian. Mr. Bathurst is British through and through. There is no attempt to speak French correctly when characters respond in French. It is a big miss to switch to a narrator with out the French flair and accent for the characters. I will continue to listen to the stories as I don't want to lose touch with Three Pines. Ms. Penny's stories are great. I wish the narration could match.

Arriving in Cairo for another thrilling excavation season, Amelia is relaxing in a well-earned bubble bath in her elegant hotel suite in Cairo when a man with a knife protruding from his back staggers into the bath chamber and utters a single word - "murder" - before collapsing on the tiled floor, dead. Among the few possessions he carried was a sheet of paper with Amelia's name and room number.

A. I little disappointed
Reviewed: 08-11-17
I was so excited for one more Amelia Peabody book. I'd missed the Emersons. Only to be disappointed this last story went back in time rather than forward. It was difficult not to have Nefrete and Ramses together or Sethos
as an enemy when we know better. The overall story was in keeping with Amelia's adventures though. Barbara Rosenblatt superb as always. Goodbye Amelia.

Was eagerly awaiting the next John Puller story. So sad to find a new narrator that just didn't fit the bill. His raspy voice just didn't give Puller the command of some one of his stature. The story was good so if he narration doesn't bother you, go for it!

As usual Amelia Peabody doesn't disappoint. Excellent performance. Great story. Sound editing was disappointing rough abrupt cuts between chapters. Not good attention to detail. A production error to be sure. But didn't spoil the story or the performance.

One would think that with Jen Lancaster’s impressive list of bestselling self-improvement memoirs that she would have it all together by now. One would be wrong. Jen’s still a little rough around the edges. Suffice it to say, she’s no Martha Stewart. And that is exactly why Jen is going to Martha up and live her life according to the advice of America’s overachieving older sister - the woman who turns lemons into lavender-infused lemonade.
