Read them all in a row 2 nights ! Laugh out loud many times ! Looking forward to next books.
Great reads to totally relax and unwind, laugh out loud situations where i have to stop and tell my family what is so funny.
I really enjoy ed these books.
Just finished with the first of three… lots of puns, lots of characters self analyzing in a funny way, with a bit of the ridiculous humor of the Stephanie Plum series.
These were easy reads, intriguing and somewhat humorus in parts. Fun to read a story and continue on with 2 more books with same characters.
I very much enjoyed these somewhat eccentric characters and the scenario in which the stories unfold.
The first book, Pineapple Lies, is hilarious. The second book was not quite as good. I haven’t read the third one yet.
These books are a pleasure to read, and definitely take you away from everyday worries. I have thoroughly enjoyed the first three, and looking forward to the rest!
So-so
could not get going
The author really has the Florida senior citizen lifestyle down to a science. Lots of funny situations and some scary ones.
I liked these books so well, that I bought the entire series.
It contains multiple grammatical errors. The editing was not very good. The characters were not interesting or believable.
These were very readable books–they are of a genre, somewhat predictable but perfect bedtime reading.
absolutely loved this
series has humor but is progressively dark with murder for fun and competition.
I loved these books. Although a little too gruesome at times, they were fun to read, kept my attention, and were enjoyable. Now I have to read the next books in the series.
Read three chapters of the first book and deleted the rest. Enough said
What fun books ! Makes you want to move to a retirement community in Florida !
