Publisher's summary

Amy Wellington is about to get married and she couldn't be more miserable.

Sure, she loves Peter Johnson, but the problem is her mother, Pepper. Amy hasn't spoken to her in over a decade and for good reason: Her mother is cursed with being interesting. Take for instance, Amy's real name: Sausage. She blames her mother entirely.

The wedding will take place at the beautiful Leelanau Lodge, a secluded spot in northern Michigan. When Peter convinces Amy to invite her mother, Amy knows there's going to be trouble. But how could she know the trouble will involve her first love, the sexy Graham, a series of murders, and excellent lentil soup?

In Pepper Wellington and the Case of the Missing Sausage there's murder and sex, but not at the same time. There is also a string of questions. Will Amy finally live her life authentically? Will she choose a grey life with Peter, or a colorful one with Graham? How many people will end up dead? And most importantly...what kind of mother would name her daughter Sausage?

Laugh out Loud!

What did you love best about Pepper Wellington and the Case of the Missing Sausage?

I loved the humor, zany characters, and fun loving nature of this mystery.

What does Tanya Eby bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Personality! This book on audible just comes alive with personality! The story came alive and you could hear the characters personalities in the narration.

If you could take any character from Pepper Wellington and the Case of the Missing Sausage out to dinner, who would it be and why?

Pepper! I think she would be an absolute hoot to have dinner with. She is such a free spirit and so much her own person. She is free to be who she is which makes her a lot of fun.

Any additional comments?

Loved this book! Would highly recommend it to anyone looking for something interesting, but fun loving and with a zany cast of characters.

A little over-the-top silly

It served its purpose-to pass the time while doing housework. Characters behaved inconsistently. Fairly explicit.

Fun

If you are in the mood for some light-hearted romantic, mildly-suspenseful comedy, this is the book for it. Tanya Eby is one of my favourite narrators so I was delighted to see that she had turned her hand to writing as well. I hope this is the beginning of a series featuring the hippiesque Petter Wellington. Her daughter, Sausage, is a wonderful character too.

Pepper Wellington

What a bunch of crazy people! I tell you, this book will have you giggling and wondering who murdered who throughout this whole book. I love all these characters for their craziness, but Pepper and Sausage are definitely my favorites. Finding out who the guilty party is was great! I will definitely be looking into more books from this author.

The title says it all

I really enjoyed listening to this book. Sure it was insane, a bit OTT, but you know what - with that title how can it be anything but? Don't pick this book up expecting a masterpiece, but go into it wanting an insane ride, needing some laughs, because that's what you get. Add in terrific narration and this book is absolutely worth a try.

If you're looking for something light...

Is there anything you would change about this book?

Romantic comedies can be tough when it comes to audio book format. The performance was certainly clear enough and it was delivered by the author herself. But I found the story almost too implausible to be that entertaining. It had its moments; there just weren't enough of them for me.This might be a book that would be more appreciated in e-book or print form. Honestly, for me, the narrator's voicing for male characters in particular became a little tedious.

What three words best describe Tanya Eby’s performance?

Adequate, but tiring.

Was Pepper Wellington and the Case of the Missing Sausage worth the listening time?

I guess that depends on what the reader is looking for. I think the vote on this one will probably be split down the middle. About half the audience will really like and enjoy the book. For the others, it may be something that's quickly forgotten.

Any additional comments?

I'll probably try another one of her books in e-book format.

Tanya Eby may be the funniest woman to put pen to paper!

I know audible fans are familiar with Tanya Eby the narrator. Tanya Eby the writer is a jewel! If you have laughed at her narration as I have countless times you are seriously missing out if you don't pick up one of her books. I laughed from beginning to end. Her characters are fresh, quirky and perfect. Now if you'll excuse me I want to listen to this glorious book again!!!!!!!

Just don’t

Maybe the storyline is ok but the writing just isn’t good and the odd, stilted narration is no help. Skip it.
