Review from Something to Dye For →
The narration just makes this better. Joel Leslie is absolutely sublime with great character voices, and impressive emotional range, terrific timing and pacing. Things that annoyed me when reading fell away completely when listening.That’s just how good Joel Leslie is. There’s something about the “Curl Up and Dye Mysteries” series that pulls me in like..

I like this series very much but this installment dragged on and on. Pacing of the story was slow and I struggled to get to the finish line. This could have been a shorter listen and a faster pace advantagement of this humorous love story of how peas and carrots can be a good dish.

The Good: The best thing about this book is the story, it’s the main reason I finished the book. The characters are ok…. The Bad: The erotic scenes are stiff, awkward, too serious and excessively narrated. The main character are seriously overly dramatic. Final Comments: Overall it was an ok book. I think it would..
it was not horrible and had possibly, but the sappy, soft core porn nonsense like you find in a romance is not what I was looking for when I buy a thriller…I am looking for a thriller and not a dime store romance. ook could have been cut down multiple hours if that had been..

4.5* I found this book so endearing, in a hard to wrap my head around it kind of way. This was one I jumped between listening to and reading. When I first finished it I had given it a 4* rating, but now that I’m getting back to it, I’ve decided to round it up..
This story engaged the listener from the start. I laughed, cried and yelled at the character during a suspenseful moment! I thoroughly loved this audiobook!
I read this book 3 times already, but listening to it let me enjoy it again like it was the first time. Joel Leslie superb narration made this experience just amazing and perfect. Knight and Elliot are some of my fave characters, and giving them a voice for the first time was so good, each..

This is another entertaining and nuanced performance from Joel Leslie, and a story that will leave you wanting the next immediately. Josh and Gabe’s story continues in this second installment of the Curl Up and Dye series. It is fun, sexy, and sweet, with a good dose of mystery and more of the realities of..
There are enough gushy reviews, so these are just some things I wanted to know before I started, and was glad to find after I bought it anyway. (SPOILERS… ish?) Bullet point version: 1. There is NO rape (…sort of) 2. This book isn’t a kinky-threesome-alien-prison-“female dog”(I can’t use swear words)-erotica with some plot laced..
