Love The Dogs

I enjoyed listening to all four stories about Lia Anderson's adventures in the Dog Park getting in the middle of a lot of murders and suspense. I love dogs and this is one of the reasons why I selected this audiobooks box set.

Love it

I received a free copy of this in exchange for an unbiased review. If you like dogs and love mystery, strap in. This is a four book collection, and while I didn't love every second of it, I was pulled into the universe.

A little disappointed.

I received this audio book in exchange for an honest review. I love cozy mysteries and I love dogs. This series was a little lackluster for me though. Part of it was that I didn't love the narration but for mysteries that are headlined as dog park mysteries, I expected a little bit more dog storyline. The characters had dogs but other than that, they didn't play much of a role. Also, well into book 3, I really wasn't that in love with the characters either - good or bad. I wasn't really routing for anyone. Like a good Netflix marathon, I want a series that when it ends, I miss it, and for me this series didn't cut it.

Dog Park Mysteries

I loved reading these 4 books! I can't wait to read more from this author. If you are crazy about dogs like I am, you will not be disappointed!

Great Listen and Great Value

First off, you get four great mysteries for the price of one! It is a steal!

The mysteries themselves were a nice and hardy. Great substance to them. I was not sure whether these would be more cozy because of the dogs or more involved. I would say they were a nice balance. Perfect, actually. You had a more intricate plot with the comfort that dogs bring to our lives. Leah and Peter are very endearing characters. I can also relate to Jose in the fact that someone nicknamed by brother Jose, and it has stuck with him ever since. We are not hispanic and again not knowing there this came from is just an odd coincidence.

I have already recommend this to several of my friends and family.

The narration was great as well. Very clear voices.

It is interesting to listen to the Author's notes as well.

I received this audiobook at my request and I provided this voluntary review.
