About this listen

There’s no place like Scumble River at Christmastime, and this year, school psychologist Skye Denison has twice as much to celebrate - and to do. In addition to the usual holiday frenzy, Skye’s wedding to police chief Wally Boyd is less than a week away - that is, if the groom isn’t too busy working to attend. The town’s sexy new librarian, Yvonne Osborn, has just been murdered, and the list of suspects is piling up faster than late fees on an overdue book.

Yvonne’s strict sense of right and wrong annoyed some townspeople and infuriated others. Did her high standards lead to her death? Skye is distracted by worries about what havoc the crazy Dooziers will wreak on her wedding day and whether she’ll fit into her dress. But Skye can’t afford to leave any page unturned because unless she works quickly to expose the scheming killer, her happy ending may be put on permanent hold.…

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

Time was well spent. I like to escape the complexities of my real life and enjoy sweet, simple, stories about characters with good morals. All unusual things for the real world we live in. These books help me slow down, think about other things, believe there is still goodness out there.

What did you like best about this story?

The love story of course. A single chief of police with no kids! Who could ask for more. It was funny to hear about a female lead character that had the same issues with her overbearing mom as I do.

Which scene was your favorite?

Hmmmm, Boyfriend coming home after a long hard day at work and just those two enjoying small pleasures together. Drinking coffee in the morning, talking to each other about the days activities, riding around in the police car together. Him taking her seriously, treating her like an equal and trusting her with details of the case.

Do you think Murder of a Stacked Librarian needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

It was my first book by this author. I will start all of them from the beginning.

Any additional comments?

Great job. Start a new series about my life. It's crazy. Meant for a book.

Loved the characters, light read, look forward

I really expected to love this; as so many others did. I assume the characters would have been more layered if I had read the books from the beginning (Book 1). They just didn't seem to have any depth. While the plot was well done and interesting, it was hard to find the good parts beneath the uninteresting dialog. I mean do we really care how many bites it takes to finish eating a cookie? I was so pleased when it was over so I could start listening to something more engaging.

Why so many 5 stars?

Denise Swanson keeps her series fresh and entertaining. Skye and Wally worked well together. I'm glad Simon has a new love interest. I can't wait to listen to the next book.

This was an awesome read! Denise Swanson is a great author and Christine Leto has a perfect voice for this story! The storyline is fun,exciting and sit on the edge of your seat mysterious! Between a wedding to plan, a mystery to solve and a ghost in the house, Sky has her hands full. Wally is the Chief of police and Sky is the psychological consultant for the police Department. Life is crazy in Stumble River with all of Sky’s family living there! You will have a hard time figuring out the murderer. This is not a cookie cutter cozy! It is great!

Great Book

Recently I began with book 1 in the series and just finished book 15 as well as the new addition. This is a terrific series, clean, friendly, and I loved the characters. Each character is unique and fun to follow. You can't go wrong reading or listening to the whole series.

Great Series

I liked this book, it had the murder but also the wedding between Sky and Wallie. In this book I think May was a lot more laid back then some of the other books but I have a feeling she will make up for it in the next few books to come. this book series is very interesting each story feeds off of the book before and they are all good to where you want to listen to each book in one sitting. I can't wait to hear the next book.

Finally Hitched

This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?

You would enjoy this book if you really, really, like listening to all the little details about planning a wedding. The cake layers,vendor payments, color themes, bridesmaids' dresses, to-do lists, etc. It is all here for you.

What do you think your next listen will be?

Not sure.

How could the performance have been better?

The narrator's groom voice was particularly grating.

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

The word "spark" cannot be used in describing my experience with this book.

Boring

The narrator was fine but the characters never pulled my in. I found myself just wanting to know who did it and not listening to the detailed of the story.

Never really caught my attention!

Any additional comments?

This novel was so light, I felt a few brain cells float away. Also, product placements was far too conspicuous. This has been my first and last Scumble River mystery.I hope the narrator has the opportunity to use her fabulous talents on some more worthwhile projects.

"Guns 'n Poses" is the health club.
