It was a slog just to keep listening to this book. The readers/actors were great but the story was over 15 hours long! Kept falling asleep to the many characters telling the same story from their point of view. We breathed a sigh of relief when it was over. I sure it could be read fast than listening to it.

This was the first book I read by Susan wiggs and it certainly won’t be the last!! Easily sucked me in to the story. I loved her attention to details.

Anyone who has seen James Veitch knows how funny he is! In the audiobook format of his book, Dot Con, he reads out his most hilarious email correspondences with various scammers. Both he and his co-reader make it extremely enjoyable to listen to.

4 stars for a hilarious book recommended by my s-i-l Judie. I have read 11 books by Carl Hiaasen and enjoyed every one. This one is book 8 in the Skink series. Skink is the former Florida Governor who walked off the job in an earlier book. He was and is an environmentalist, given to outrageous acts of sabotage against companies or people who damage the environment. He does not appear in this book until the second half. The 1st half is about the interchange of incidents between Angela, "Angie" Armstrong, ex Florida Wildlife Officer, Jerry Crosby, Palm Beach Police Chief, a now ex President, along with his wife, and various Secret Service Agents and employees at Casa Bellicosa, aka Winter White House. The President and his wife are never mentioned by name, but the descriptions are so vivid that it is impossible not to know who is who. The second half brings Skink and Jim Tile, a Skink friend into contact with everyone. Some elements in the book: Burmese Pythons--an invasive species thriving in the Everglades Pruitt, a poacher from Angela's past POTUS Pussies--Wealthy widows who adore the President Three quotes: "Angie had been summoned to Casa Bellicosa to unfasten a screech owl from the presidential pompadour, which the low swooping raptor had mistaken for a road-kill fox." "The President's Secret Service's code name was "Mastotodon." He loved it. " "On only his second day in the Whit House, the President had ordered his chief of staff to arrange a trip to the National Zoo for a close-up look at a real mastodon." This was a library ebook through the Libby app.

Fascinating read about a girl with premonitions. Taking place during a European war. Being of a wealthy family certain expectations are made for her. Yet, her quirks make it hard for her to fit that mold. Explores the idea of making your own destiny.

I liked that this story had ghosts, it was scary and had horses. My favorite part was when Slim told the ghost story. Another good part was then the ghost was playing the piano.

This book fell flat for me. I have enjoyed many Susan Wiggs books but this one I would not recommend. It was very slow.

This book is TERRIFYING. I couldn’t put it down. Highly recommend.

This book is INSANE. I never expected the twist coming. Highly recommend

Fast paced psychological thriller pitting family against family and the playing field is not level. This book hits all the buttons for a smart ly written book. A wonderful read.
