Historia
A twister, a kidnapping, and a murder - oh my! Scumble River may never be the same. For school psychologist Skye Denison, there's certainly no place like home. When a violent tornado devastates her small hometown of Scumble River, she can't see how the community will ever recover - especially since town councilman Zeke Lyons appears to have perished in the twister. But things get even worse for Skye when her police chief husband, Wally, disappears in the midst of investigating Zeke's death, and evidence arises pointing to foul play.

Historia
Although this isn't the life Lexie would have chosen, all is going well. At least until Lexie is fired and her deranged ex-boyfriend tries to kidnap her. Deciding that it's better to accept a mysterious inheritance from a great aunt she's never heard of rather than end up kept in a cage as her ex's pet poodle, Lexie packs up and heads to Kansas. So, what if she has to go by a new name and live in a town that she can't find on a map? Unfortunately, once she arrives in her new hometown, everyone there seems just a tad off-kilter, and Lexie's cousin insists the citizens are magical.

Clare Cosi used to manage the historic Village Blend coffeehouse…until she opted for quieter pastures and a more suburban life. But after ten years and a little friendly cajoling from the owner (a fresh pot of Jamaican Blue Mountain was all it took), she's back to the grind. With a sprawling rent-free apartment directly above the Village Blend, her cat Java by her side, and plenty of coffeehouse redecorating ideas, Clare is thrilled to return to work. Until she discovers the assistant manager unconscious in the back of the store, coffee grounds strewn everywhere.

Historia
Libby Day was seven when her mother and two sisters were murdered in "The Satan Sacrifice of Kinnakee, Kansas". As her family lay dying, little Libby fled their tiny farmhouse into the freezing January snow. She lost some fingers and toes, but she survived, and famously testified that her 15-year-old brother, Ben, was the killer. Twenty-five years later, Ben sits in prison, and troubled Libby lives off the dregs of a trust created by well-wishers who've long forgotten her.

Typical Fun Scumble River, but voices changed
Basically I like all the Scumble River mysteries. I very much enjoyed finally seeing some progress in Skye's love life too. The mystery was ok but I confess to enjoying the characters as the primary attraction. So that may be why it bothered me that although most of the voices have not changed, May and Bunny sounded totally different. Was so weird after getting used to everyone to hear Skye sound like she always did than her mother suddenly sound completely unlike herself. I think the previous voices were much better. I hope this resolves by the next book. The story line being set in a spa gives lots of opportunities for various comments to be made about Skye's weight, appearance etc. I confess to be a bit bored having to dwell on her chubbiness all the time. I also remember Skye commenting at some point (might not have been this book) about eating healthy despite no longer dieting. Skye does a lot of eating (even when it is forbidden at the spa) and she is always chowing down McDonald's, or piles of meat potatoes and gravy, or bags of candy and chips. I think she's a little deluded. But in the beginning of the book especially I was getting tired of people being so rude to her. Some unresolved threads from previous books do get wrapped up in the one, which is nice. As usual I plan to go on to the next in the series.

Murder of a Botoxed Blonde
Murder of a Botoxed Blonde was my first Denise Swanson mystery. I liked the narrator and the characters; and enjoyed the plot and the conclusion to the book. I will be getting the next Scumble River mystery to try very soon. I wish Audible had the first books in the series but as of now they only have the newest Scumble River books. If you like Cozy Mysteries then I would suggest you give this one a try. Even though this book is late in the series and I have not read the first books I was not lost, the author does a great job of keeping up new readers.

Story is Okay. Why did narrator change the voices?
Would you try another book from Denise Swanson and/or Christine Leto?
Yes. I really like this series. Swanson knows her stuff when it comes to school psychology. It's a little unbelievable that a town as small as Scumble River has so many murders though.
How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?
This book wasn't that exciting. The ending was predictable.
How could the performance have been better?
One of the reasons I listen to this series on Audible is Leto's performance as a narrator. I was so disappointed that she changed the voices for some of the characters in this book. Bunny and Mae's voices were grating and not much different in my opinion. I am listening to these in series order so hopefully she'll go back to the voices in the previous books again.

Mixed
The mystery is pretty good. I thought the writing and narration was immature. Perhaps the narration was good, but I didnt like it because it matched the characters, who I did not like.

Really weird changes.
I agree wit hither reviewers that complained about the narrator. She been great thus far but when you go and completely change a characters voice after doing it a certain way for so many of those series, it's really off putting. Hope it was just a fluke.

A new spa means a new murder in Scrumble River
Denise Swanson delivers another solid mystery to a great series. Skye is back with the rest of the Scrumble River characters. A health spa serves as a background to murder and mayhem. I enjoyed the plot line and the characters. I like the cliffhanger at the end. I look forward to my next trip to Scrumble River.

I love a Scumble River Mystery
What made the experience of listening to Murder of a Botoxed Blonde the most enjoyable?
I really like the reader; she is a fitting voice for Skye, the main character. The plot is a good one, and Denise Swanson's writing is clever.
Who was your favorite character and why?
I love Skye, the protagonist. I think most Scumble River readers will agree, as we like to follow her escapades!
Which character – as performed by Christine Leto – was your favorite?
Christine Leto IS Skye's voice, as far as I am concerned. Even when I read the Scumble River books that are not on audiotape, I "hear" Christine Leto
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
I really enjoyed this twists and turns at the spa. What a great setting!
Any additional comments?
I'd love to have all of the Scumble River books on audiotape! As they are not all available, that is my suggestion! They have an audience.

Changed character voices???
Why do characters’ voices have to change in the middle of a series??? Several books in, and I’ve grown accustomed to Wally, May, and Bunny. Now none of them sound the same, and I feel like they were more fun with the original voices.
I will continue to listen to the rest of the books. I enjoy the story and the narrator.
