About this listen

At forty-eight, Jacqueline Finch has a nice, easy life with few responsibilities: she's been a librarian in Chicago for twenty-five years and she's just coasting along. That is, until the Universe (helped by three old crones) has other ideas.

All at once, Jacqueline's staid (and boring) life is upended, and the next thing she knows, she's heading off to Button Cove to start a new life as the owner of Three Tomes Bookshop.

The bookstore is a darling place, and Jacqueline is almost ready to be excited about this new opportunity . . . until Mrs. Hudson and Mrs. Danvers show up.

Things start to get even more strange after that: Jacqueline is befriended by three old women who bear a startling resemblance to the Witches Three from Macbeth, an actual witch shows up at her bookshop and accuses Jacqueline of killing her brother, and the two women who own businesses across the street seem determined to befriend Jacqueline.

And then there's the police detective with the very definite hot-Viking vibe who shows up to investigate the dead body . . .

The next thing Jacqueline knows, her staid and simple life is no longer quiet and unassuming, and she's got crones, curses, and crocodiles to deal with.

The main character was a bit of a self absorbed person.

Over all the book was very entertaining. I did get irritated by the main characters constant winning about her life and being 48. I can relate to her problems and frustration about going through menopause the hot flashes themselves can cause anxiety. I did love the other characters and the story line can’t wait to read more. Maybe the main character will become more self assured and kick ass instead of winning so much.

Very enjoyable

Took a chance. Great light entertainment , took me a bit to like the narration, so sped it up by one notch. Was very easy listening after that.

Main character so irritating

Struggled through to chapter 17. Stopped listening.
So tired of hearing about main character’s menopausal symptoms, how unhappy she is about everything, her weight, her love life, her hair, lack of friends, her freckles, on and on. This girl is depressing.
