My review of The Secret Detective Agency by Helena Dixon

Title: The Secret Detective Agency

Author: Helena Dixon

Expected Publication: Bookouture Audio

Genre: Cozy Mystery/ Mystery

Pages: 316 pages

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Review:

This is a new author for me and a brand new series! It's a cozy mystery series involving secret agents. Miss Jane Treen starts the story at her desk, drinking strong coffee, when she receives a report that someone murdered one of her agents. Shortly after, she gets an urgent message about a woman found dead in a lake where none of her agents were supposed to be.

Finding a dead woman in the lake near his inherited home upon his early return home surprised Arthur Cilento, to say the least. He's even more shocked to learn that the woman is the tenant who recently rented his property on a short lease while he was away. To solve the mystery and expose Jane's other agents' involvement in an operation, Arthur and Jane must decode a journal and identify the culprit before all the agents are killed and before they become targets. This was a brilliant introduction to these characters. They worked very well together, despite a few initial conflicts due to Arthur's allergies, but everything worked out in the end. I thoroughly enjoyed this audiobook!

Netgalley and Bookouture Audio gave me the audiobook to review, and it was a treat! The narrator was engaging and really set the tone of the story. I loved the vibe and accent of the narrator, which kept the flow of the story and conveyed it very well. I loved it! Thank you for the opportunity to listen to and review this one. It was an adventure!

My Review of Sex Cult Nun by Faith Jones

​ Title: Sex Cult Nun  Author: Faith Jones  Published: November 30, 2021  Published by: William Morrow Books  Genre: True Crime/Memior  Pages: 400  Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️  Review:  I'm giving this book 5 stars. The reason for the five stars is the rawness and the transparency of this author that she went into the details that she knew would bother a lot of people, she went to the deepest and darkest times in her life and she put them on blast. She blasted her truth from the rooftops for not only herself but for everyone that is not able to share their truth.  This book has an abundance of disturbing and disgusting content and a lot of underage sexual abuse and rape. That is the part that is hard to read about, but her courage to share it and write it is very eye-opening. I did not agree with he whole sharing and polygamy but with each their own. I know I would not want to share my spouse with another person. The whole child abuse and sexual abuse...
