[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lost Lambs by Madeline Cash. I really love the humor, at least in the 75 pages I’ve read so far.

I’m also in the middle of listening to the third book in the [b]Finlay Donovan[/b] series about a Fairfax County romance/crime author and mom who gets mixed up in crazy murder for hire and other ridiculous schemes.  But they’re a fun, easy listen while driving or doing stuff around the house. [/quote]I DNF on Finlay Donovan after the 2nd book. The plots are thin and repetitive and are bloated with goofy characters and dialogs. A joke. [/quote]

I am not the OP but I find this type of response disrespectful and unnecessary. Fine for you to have an opinion on a given book but it’s no more or less valid than anyone else’s. The OP quite clearly said that this book falls into the category of a fun, easy listen so the PP’s comments don’t even seem to fit the discussion. Pp, why not tell us your suggestions in the fun, easy listen category? Or ask the OP to expand on the things she likes about the books (assuming you’re open minded enough to reconsider your opinion)[/quote]

Girl, she’s insulting the book, not the pp.  I think there’s an implicit understanding that people can have wildly different views on the same book without meaning anything about the people who like them.  For example my very best friend just adores the Poisonwood Bible and I have tried and tried and just can’t with that book.[/quote]
