A Cupcake of a Cozy! With a Cherry On Top!

Would you consider the audio edition of Daisy McDare and the Deadly Legal Affair to be better than the print version?

Yes, definitely, Caroline Shively absolutely MAKES this series for me. She is a cozy readers dream narrator, fun, vibrant, up beat, clear.... her voice makes me happy.

What other book might you compare Daisy McDare and the Deadly Legal Affair to and why?

Well, I also listened to the first one, and it had many of the same characters as this one. Since the narrator, Caroline Shively, was the same, it made me happy too, but not as happy as the second one. K.M. Morgan is getting more skillful as she writes this series.

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

Oh just about everything, lol. Her personification of Daisy and the other characters is wonderful. But it is her lighthearted take on what is essentially entertainment reading that makes this series a keeper. I only want to be amused when I read a cozy, to have a fun happy experience, to visit a world where stress is at a minimum. Caroline creates that world with her voice.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I liked it very much when a character's comment triggered a chain reaction in Daisy's mind and suddenly she knew "who done it". Daisy has her faults, she's not perfect, but she's one smart cookie!

Any additional comments?

I was given this audio copy for review, but I bought the print version too so I could read along. I was afraid I might not be able to focus adequately to review the book otherwise, but for book three I don't even think the written version will be needed, Caroline is so easy to follow along with.

A cute short cozy murder mystery

Daisy McDare and the Deadly Legal Affair is a cute cozy mystery about an interior decorator who gets caught up in a murder investigation. It’s a simple, clean, short story that provides an entertaining few hours of entertainment. The narrator of the audiobook does a good job with the story, and her perky voice fits well. I only wish she had a bit more variation and depth in her storytelling, just like I wish the story had a bit more depth to it as well. I received a complimentary copy of this audiobook. This is my honest and voluntary review.

Fun Cozy Mystery with Daisy McDare

Daisy was going about her everyday business of interior decorating when a murder mystery presented itself. When the police arrest the wrong person, Daisy steps up to investigate. She does this with the help of her bakery-owner friend Samantha and Granny Annie and lots of sweets for emotional support. The narrator does an excellent job of bringing the character of Daisy to life as Daisy investigates suspects. Fun and enjoyable listen. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Good story.

Daisy seems to be in the right place to hear motives for murder. She has to zero in on which of the suspects is the murderer. It proves more difficult when she learns there are even more suspects and morives.

Excellent

Daisy trying to get her business going in this quaint town. Her love life isn’t going any where. Then with murder and one bumbling cop, she steps into investigate.

Entertaining cozy mystery!

Daisy takes on a new design project that turns into a murder investigation filled with several twists. Once again K.M Morgan has crafted another enjoyable fast-moving story that is brought to life by Caroline Shively.

Cute Story

I received this book in exchange for a review. This was another cute Daisy story. It was a nice break from the more serious and tense series’ that I have been reading. I think Daisy does a great job at telling the story and finding out The Who dun it of each case.

Daisy McDare 2

Daisy does it again. Very cute story. Again sometimes hard to distinguish between characters but enjoyable. I voluntarily reviewed an Advanced Audio copy of this book.
