Unabridged Audiobook
The only problem I had with this book was that I kept cracking up laughing while listening to it, which likely made folks around me think I was a little weird. Kate Atkinson sets up several funny situations, and her characters' musings on them add to the humor, along with the wry tone taken by the narrator. Truly enjoyed the read.
A very fun listen! I have listened to a number of the "Jackson Brodie" novels and enjoyed them nearly all, but I thought that this was the best to date. The plot is solid and there is really nice humor throughout - and in this book, the humor doesn't feel forced as it did in just one of this series did, to me. Brodie is a bit of a miserable character in himself, but there is so much humor with the characters around him, and some really nice human touches, as one comes to expect from Kate Atkinson, that it doesn't matter. The narrator was superb, taking on different voices, both male and female, in a perfectly professional and convincing way. This is a great escapist book!
