Captivating and hilarious

I hope Jo makes a series of these books! She is so talented and funny, and the story really grabs hold of you.

Don't Miss This

I nearly let the title scare me off. Boy am I glad that I didn't. I was looking for a lighthearted comedy, not a raunchy romance novel. I absolutely got what I was looking for. The author has a fun narrative and a quirky sense of humor in their storytelling.
I wholeheartedly recommend this for a listen.

An example of a good novel with great comedy

Jo Firestone brings her charming wit to the page and performance with this novel. The story is intriguing and Jo tells it perfectly. If your taste in comedy is light self-deprecation and silly (though wholly realistic) characters, the comedic beats will hit for you. Her male voices are absolutely the highlight of the dialogue. The book does not overstay its welcome in any bits, in fact I wish there was more of a scene. The next Luella van Horn Mystery will be on my bookshelf along with this one. Will read again.

Great detective story

Kept me guessing, laughing and wanting more. A great mystery detective story at its best.

Amazing Mystery (not just for Jo Firestone fans!)

I am HUGE Jo Firestone fan so naturally I listened to this as soon as it came out. As an avid mystery reader I am so pleasantly surprised by what a good plot this book has! (and I mean this in the best most complimentary way!) When comedians come out with books it can sometimes feel gimmicky but this is a story that stands on its own even without Jo’s forever charming narration. I will be recommending this book to Jo Firestone fans but also to anyone else who wants to read/listen to a very compelling and gripping mystery.

Can’t wait to figure out whodunit

I started listening to this as I do most podcasts, because I was out of credits. I’m so glad I did! Marie/Luella is strangely relatable for me and the authors voice is a welcome change from the generic female podcast voice. The reality show concept is so ridiculous that I’m surprised it hasn’t actually happened and i love the comedy aspect to the mystery. I listened to all the available episodes and now I have to wait to see who did it!

Delightful!!

I truly wasn’t sure if Jo’s self publishing snafu was a bit or not, knowing her humor but either way this was an absolute delight. I’m ready fort he next one!!
