This review is for the Skyler Foxe Mystery, books 1 - 3.5. I literally listened to them back to back with only rest to sleep. lol

Skylar Foxe is annoying, beautiful, charming, funny, lovely, outrages, trouble, and just perfect! Although Jaime is my favorite character in this series you grow to love Skylar's Jewish beat friend, her new Filipino boyfriend, Philip, Rudolpho, ❤️ Keith❤️ and all the students who become champions for Skylar. The last school dance was such a special and beautiful moment, it was impossible not to fall in love with those kids!

I loved that Skylar's in love with many artists from Motown and in book 3.5, his reactions to the Christmas gift Keith gave him was perfection! Just loved it!

My favorites moment and or quotes:

"You're the blondest, palest, black woman I've ever seen." 😜

"If I get killed, my mother will never forgive me." Book 3

"Creepy scooby doo care keeper." Book 2

💖 "By your talent for decorative arrangements, you might just be a homosexual." 💖 Book 3.5

another cute book; another FANTASTIC vocal perform

I was a bit gushy in my last review about the vocal performer but he might have been even better in this book. There is only 1 other vocal performer that has made me want to listen to a book instead of reading it...he's just that good. He has the perfect voices for each character and you absolutely feel like you're part of the story with the characters because of him.

This story is another cute installment of this series. Keith made me a little angry toward the end but he fixed it. Skyler is as adorable as ever. There was a huge 'aw' moment at the school. Everyone was here again...with a little bit of a predictable twist on a couple of the characters. I cannot wait to read/listen to more!

Okay I Relent...

This third installment was just wonderful. After I sem-panned the narration of Joel Leslie in my review of the second Skyler Foxe Mysteries novel, I relent and say that his performance in this third installment is just wonderful. I hear myself even now, some weeks after listening to 'Out-Foxed' saying 'Skylerrr' in my head using Joel Leslie's Rodolfo voice! It's hilarious.

Out-Foxed does not disappoint on the story side either. It is full of mystery and suspense whilst also being jam packed with humor. In this novel we get to know Skyler's mother a little better and come to see that she is as passionate and caring as Skyler. The only part of the novel I didn't like is when Keith was recalled because the situation had become 'too dangerous'. It didn't really gel with me that he would abandon Skyler that way and leave him in the peril that clearly he was in. Especially when it seemed that his superiors didn't prevent him coming back and clearing everything up with Skyler in the end anyway. The rest of the story was awesome.

I am now looking forward to the novelette based around the Thanksgiving and Christmas celebrations and hope Audible will have the next full novel 'Foxe Fire' ready for download very soon.

Great book series!

I can't wait for the next book! I love books that makes one laugh, cry, think... And those steamy romance scenes... Work and the subway rides can be a bit - interesting. LOL!
