Granny Skewers a Scoundrel: Fuchsia, Minnesota Book 2 Audible Audiobook – Unabridged

4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars 191 ratings

Granny has a new addition to her arsenal of crime fighting weapons as Fuchsia, Minnesota's most colorful detective. Now, along with her famous crook-hooking umbrella, she's acquired a scoundrel-skewering knitting needle. And just in time! Residents of Fuchsia seem to be dropping dead like flies! First, it's Granny's neighbor Sally (who gives up the ghost in her weed-filled front yard), followed by Esmeralda Periwinkle (the squirrel lover on Main Street), and then, Mr. Nail, owner of the local hardware store (who is squashed when dozens of bags of fertilizer fall on top of him). Granny is baffled. Who is behind this murder spree?

Granny enlists the help of her sort-of-boyfriend Franklin Gatsby, the town's police chief Cornelius Stricknine (or "The Big Guy"), her reality-show loving neighbor Mavis, and her own son Thor. And, of course, the special assistance of her menagerie of pets - including Mr. Bleaty, the goat. Soon Granny is hot on the trail of this dastardly murderer. Unfortunately, when Granny herself is poisoned, everyone insists that she cool her crime solving ways and stay indoors and out of harm's way. Of course, that's never going to happen! Not when Granny knows all the secret passageways and tunnels that run underneath Fuchsia. Out she goes - and watch out, you evil doers! Granny will solve this mystery - you can bet your pink undies, she will!

For any reader under 30 and who fears old age, this series is the antidote. For those under 60 who are so tired and think retired will be boring, this is a heads up call! Life really is what you make of it, as Granny well knows: racy cars and nightwear, new friends with 4 legs and 2; and adventures that add different kinds of spice to life. I’d love to meet Granny - certainly wouldn’t be dull.

Want a mystery that is intriguing and keeps you turning the pages, keeps you guessing, and laughing too? Here's the book for you. I want more by Julie Seedorf for SURE. Maybe it's because she has wisdom of the ages hair color or what, but granny is a scoundrel and a scamp. Any one will enjoy this story, and I hope some even have a granny like this. She is an inspiration. I could give it 10 stars if I could. What a hoot.!!!

How refreshing to read a book that isn't full of swearing and smut, blood and guts, murder and mayhem. I thought the story was very good and very descriptive. I felt like I could see the surroundings very well and she made Granny seem like a real person. I do wish I had read "Granny hooks a crook" first though. I did it backwards. I just started Hooks a Crook. I am looking forward to it and any others that follow.

Either the author is a juvenile or it was written for young people. It was not very realistic and I did not find any humor in it at all. Granny fell down so many times without any broken bones it is a wonder she was not hospitalized for a long time. She also survived on donuts and wine, which was not very appealing to read about an older lady. I just did not find the book entertaining. I almost put it down several times, but figured it cost me money so I should finish it so not to feel as cheated as I think I was.

This cantankerous little grannie reminds me of a dear friend. A real escape read,, light and easy. I love surprises and she saved one for the end.

Granny is quite the sleuth, even if she gets in and causes more trouble while doing so. I am really enjoying this series. I just wish that I had read them in order.
