Susanne’s Review:

Thank goodness for Andy Carpenter!

Do you like a dry, witty, sarcastic sense of humor?  If so, look no further than David Rosenfelt’s Andy Carpenter series!  Truth be told, I read this series solely because of Andy Carpenter.  His sense of humor makes me laugh out loud more times than I can count. I love Andy’s relationship with his wife Laurie and enjoy the storyline, but if the book simply focused on Andy trading witty barbs with others, I’d be one happy gal.

In “Silent Bite” a crime takes place (as it always does). This time, Andy’s partner Willie, asks Andy to represent a friend of his who was arrested for murder.  Though Andy would prefer to stay semi-retired, as always, he agrees to represent Tony Birch, who he believes was wrongfully accused.  Now comes the hard part, proving it.  Thank goodness, Andy has his team behind him to assist.  

A well-done mystery/suspense that kept me gripped to the storyline, while completely entertained by Andy Carpenter’s antics.  I listened to the audiobook and truly enjoyed the narrator.  

A buddy listen with Kaceey.

Thank you to NetGalley, St. Martin’s Press, and David Rosenfelt for the arc. Thank you also to my local library for loaning me a copy of the audiobook.

Kaceey’s Review:

Once again Andy steals the show with his witty banter. And the cameo of all the dogs a close second.

This is book 22 of the Andy Carpenter series and though I jumped in only a few books ago Andy quickly stole my heart with his wicked sense of humor. 

Andy is a lawyer that is desperately trying to give up his profession. But he keeps getting dragged into cases… because he just can’t say no. 

As I’ve seen in the few books I’ve read in this series the cast of characters is very long and I was once again was left confused and wishing I had kept a scorecard. 

If you are looking for a mystery that will keep you chuckling along the way…well this is the perfect read for you. Don’t be scared to jump right into this long-standing series. David Rosenfelt supplies enough information on the main characters that you will feel like you’ve known them for years.

A buddy read with Susanne.

Thank you to NetGalley and Minotaur Books.
