Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes. This is a fun little cozy mystery with a decent story and fun characters. The mystery itself has enough going on to keep you wondering what the real story is for most of the book.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Huckleberry Murders?

Bo & Angie's swamp investigation was pretty entertaining.

What does Tom Stechschulte bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

He brings a good characterization of most of the characters in the book. His Bo sounds exactly how I would expect him to sound.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes actually, it kept me entertained and wondering what would happen next throughout. The length was about right for the material. I could easily see listening to this in one sitting.

Any additional comments?

Between the author's sense of humor and the narrator's performance, this was a lot of fun.BONUS POINTS: Crazy Eddie Muldoon (a staple of McManus' humor stories about growing up in Idaho) makes an appearance as one of Pap's buddies as a kid.

Patrick McManus just keeps getting better. What fun that he has started writing novels! You needn't have read any of his essays prior to starting on his novels, but having at least listened to "How I Got This Way" will only add to the fun: You will recognize some of the characters from his childhood popping up in his novels. McManus made a name for himself writing humorous pieces about hunting and fishing for publications such as "Field and Stream" and "Outdoor Life." Born and raised in Idaho, he writes about what he knows and loves. All of his Bo Tully mysteries take place in Blight County, Idaho, where Bo works as sheriff. Sadly, only two of the Bo Tully series have been published in audio so far: "The Blight Way" (2006) and "The Huckleberry Murders" (2010). Audible: Please get us the rest!

Hilarious and lots of fun
