About this listen
Best-selling author and Sookie Stackhouse creator Charlaine Harris crafts the eighth riveting tale starring Aurora "Roe" Teagarden.
Roe's stepsister-in-law, Poppy, has achieved social distinction - she's been elected into the Uppity Women Book Club. Unfortunately, membership has its deadly consequences. Sordid stories of infidelity in Poppy's marriage lead to a rash of suspects, and Roe begins to question her own heart. But her passion for the truth will drive her on-into the path of the cold-blooded killer.

Story
When she witnesses a small child tumbling from a ferry into Lake Champlain, Troy Chance dives in without thinking. Harrowing moments later, she bobs to the surface, pulling a terrified little boy with her. As the ferry disappears into the distance, she begins a bone-chilling swim nearly a mile to shore towing a tiny passenger. Surprisingly, he speaks only French. He'll acknowledge that his name is Paul; otherwise, he's resolutely mute.

Uppity Women
Would you listen to Poppy Done to Death again? Why?
Yes. The story moves right along. The characters are interesting. I love Aurora Teagarden.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Aurora Teagarden. Over this series of books she has changed and matured. She's not perfect, but she's never boring.
Which scene was your favorite?
It's difficult to be specific without including "spoilers." My favorite scenes took place in Poppy's house.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Again, to avoid "spoilers" I don't want to be too specific. I did like the development of Aurora's relationship with her half brother.
Any additional comments?
I started reading this series years ago when it was first published. I was "hooked" right away. I enjoy the brisk pace of the stories, the complexity of the plots, the "cast" of interesting characters and the small town setting. Murders are involved, but there is no emphasis on detailed descriptions of graphic violence.
This is the last published book in the series. I know the Sookie Stockhouse series has been very successful. However I would welcome another visit with Aurora.

Love the book and series-only one comaint
I love the series. Characters are well developed and most of the time the story line follows well from book to book. The lack of consistency in the storyline following from book to book is a little frustrating. An example is that in this book Robin has reappeared in Aurora's life. I will not spoil the story, but Robin, and Arthur know of each other there should be some discussion about how they both feel now Robin is back in her life. This book and the previous books ignore the fact she was calling and communicating with Robin before Martin came into her life. The books almost become confusing or frustrating because of these flaws and they happen in some manner in each book.
I recommend the series and enjoy the books. Be patient with the author as these are some of her earliest books. The Stackhouse series and others flow faster and more smoothly, but do not miss out on getting to know Aurora!

Aurora keeps getting better!
What made the experience of listening to Poppy Done to Death the most enjoyable?
I'm often rather harsh in my assessments of amateur detectives, but Aurora Teagarden doesn't get any flying arrows from me. I love this character. First of all she's a librarian. She's bright, she's funny, she's mature, and she's smart enough to know when to involve the professionals.
n this latest episode of the series, Roe as she's known, discovers the murdered body of her step-sister-in-law Poppy when Ms. P misses her induction into the Uppity Women club; that same day she accepts custody of her runaway 15 yr old half-brother Phillip, who arrives unannounced for Thanksgiving (she thought he was in California); she confronts her own feelings about parenting, extra-marital sex, and her current relationship to Robin Crusoe the author, all while trying to figure out why Poppy was murdered, and then why Poppy's house was trashed AFTER the police finished investigating the crime scene.
All the regulars are there, with new and introspective insights into their characters and motivations. It's an easy cozy read, but has plenty of meat to the plot.I didn't have that AHA moment until nearly the end, and that's the way I enjoy mysteries --- the plot building to a surprise ending, lots of suspects being ruled in/out one at a time.
What about Therese Plummer’s performance did you like?
It was very easy to distinguish the characters from her inflections and accents.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The ending.

Good series
This was a good series. In each book, you could see the progression of growth in Charlaine Harris's writing skills. The mysteries were well thought out and I didn't know the identity of the killer until the end. Sure it was really dated; no cell phones at first, etc., but if you realize that the first books were written 20 years ago, then it doesn't feel so odd. I would recommend this series if you are looking for light reading.

Aurora Teagarden is Delightful
Aurora Teagarden is a delightful character and is well developed as are all of Charlaine Harris's characters. This book returned some characters who we had met in past books and expanded on the family dynamics between Roe, step family relationships, as well as old boyfriends. Roe really came to life for me in this book.
