In Paradise - her first novel since she was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature - Toni Morrison gives us a bravura performance. As the book begins deep in Oklahoma early one morning in 1976, nine men from Ruby (pop. 360), in defense of "the one all-black town worth the pain", assault the nearby Convent and the women in it. From the town's ancestral origins in 1890 to the fateful day of the assault, Paradise tells the story of a people ever mindful of the relationship between their spectacular history and a void.

A best-selling author of books for adults and children, Mark Childress pens his most outrageous work yet with Georgia Bottoms. The titular heroine is the epitome of the church-going Southern belle, except for one teeny-tiny aspect of her life. Georgia’s family inheritance has long since evaporated, and to maintain her genteel lifestyle, Miss Bottoms has taken six affluent lovers—the fly in the ointment being that one is a married preacher who’s about to reveal their infidelity to the whole congregation.

'This is us', the Southern version
Full disclosure: I'm a lifelong Californian so I don't hold much affinity for Southern voices. Once I got past that though, this listen was an absolute, complete and genuine treasure.
It spans the lifetime of Bonita Fay and the why's and what for's of the things she did. Whether you agree with her decisions or not, they were hers and they form the background for everything that happened to her.
This was a great listen from start to finish. The ending was completely unexpected (well, maybe not) and all I thought then was, 'but what happens next?'
Put your feet up and give in to the indulgence that is Bonita Fay's life.

Quirky characters, leisurely pace
Disclosure: I received a copy of this book from the author via Audiobook Boom in exchange for a review.
Haven't we all thought about leaving everything behind and starting over? (Without the murder?)
I live in Mississippi, so I find the turn-of-phrase and discourse warm and familiar. The characters are quirky, well developed, and authentic. They have good qualities and shortcomings, but it's balanced well and rounds out the characters. The story moves forward in an unhurried way, like a conversation between friends over a leisurely cup of coffee. I've already looked up some other books by this author.
The narrator is a big issue for me. Ms. Herman is hard to listen to - to the point of being distracting. I would prefer my Kindle's text to voice feature.

A great character driven listen
This is very much a character driven story. There's not much in the way of mystery or suspense, but the characters are fully developed, colorful and interesting. There's also a touch of humor in this story.
Carol Herman is the perfect narrator for this audiobook. Her southern drawl is just what the story calls for. She delivers an excellent performance.

Worth your time and credit
This was just pure fun! I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It pulled me in immediately and held my complete attention from start to finish. It's a well written, entertaining, engaging, enjoyable sometimes humorous story with a great cast of interesting and quirky characters. The icing on the cake is the fantastic narration.
Even though it's listed as a mystery/thriller you know pretty much from the start who killed Bonita Faye's husband. So there really isn't a lot of mystery or suspense in that regard. In no way does that make the story any less enjoyable though. It's a creative story that in many ways reminded me a little of Crazy in Alabama.
The story is told by Bonita Faye as she recounts the events that shaped her life up until the murder, the events after the murder as well as the lives' of the people she knew or met along the way. You know who did what, why and how, but it's the events after the deed, the lives' effected and the coarse their lives' take after the murder that is the real story.
The characters deserve a second mention. Of coarse Bonita Faye is great and she is one of those characters that will stick with you long after you finish the book, but all the characters were well developed, likable and relatable. Patsy, Claude, Harmon, Simone etc. were all great characters.
This is the first time I have heard Carol Herman narrate a book. She did a fantastic job with the narration. Pleasant voice that is easy to listen to for long periods of time. Great character voices and accents. She did a great job with the French accents. The tone and inflection of her narration in each situation was perfect. Her narration drew me into the story immediately and made it as well as the characters come to life. Very enjoyable.

Great Book!
This is a great book with a wonderful story and well developed characters. The story flowed very well and was very enjoyable. This book will keep you reading long into the night and you will not want to put this book down until you finish. This was such a great read and full of surprises. The narrator did a wonderful job with this book. She did a great job with the different voices of each character in this book. It was very easy to listen to and I didn’t want to stop listening until the end. If you are looking for a great book with well-developed characters then you need to listen to this book. I am looking forward to listening to the next book by this author and narrator.

Not Evanavitch
The over all story was ok but not as funny as the ratings claimed them to be. This girl has a knack for making friends of someone who could be an enemy. She kills her husband and gets away with it. Attempts to kill anothers husband but someone else intervened, and then she succufuly kills another. this woman could be dangerous..
I received this free for an honest review from the author or narrator.

Loved This!
I absolutely adored this! An original story, great characters and humor - what's not to love? The lovely southern drawl of Carol Herman was the icing on the cake and she gave a terrific performance. Fabulous! I enjoyed the pace and the way that everything leisurely evolved, allowing the listener to really savor the story. Bonita Faye was a great listen and I would recommend it.
I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review. This review is my honest opinion.
