5.0 out of 5 stars An appointment with the bestseller list! December 25, 2011
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
An Appointment with Murder follows Sarah Woods, who embarks on a quest to discover the truth behind the murder of her assistant. Jennings' writing is captivating, raw and thrilling (and on several occasions downright funny)!

Living within each page is a multitude of twists and angles that keeps the reader guessing: WHO DID IT?! Just when I thought I'd figured out who was behind it all, she'd throw me for a loop. Jennings has a knack for drawing us in and painting a vivid picture of her character's world. A world I didn't want to leave.

I'll be anxiously waiting in line for the next installment of the Sarah Woods Mystery Series!

5.0 out of 5 stars An Appointment With Murder November 23, 2011
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
II downloaded this book (my first book download on my ipad) and read it over the last two days; I couldn't put my iPad down.

I thoroughly enjoyed the book. I thought it was well written, there were several clever aspects to the story and it flowed very nicely. I was glad that it wasn't your typical love/lust story and thought the sexual inuendo was entertaining as well :). I would strongly recommend others to read this book.

Massage, Masturbation, Murder. When Sarah finds her assistant has been strangled in the short time she was in the back with a client she doesn't know who she can trust. Who would have done such a horrible thing? Was it a random killing or someone she knew? Although the police are investigating Sarah can't seem to stay out of it and embarks on a journey to find the killer.

A fast paced story that keeps you guessing until the very end. I enjoyed it very much and look forward to more from this author.

Highly recommend.

1.0 out of 5 stars waste of time
Just terrible. Don't bother even if it is cheap. Life is too short to waste on this sort of nonsense .

3.0 out of 5 stars A bit pedestrian
The premise is pretty good. The execution left a bit to be desired. Probably won't look for another Jennings book.

3.0 out of 5 stars Needed more tension and mystery
This book is grammatically solid but could use a more tense or convoluted plot if it is to keep the reader eagerly turning pages to get to the end. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Short and sweet
I liked this book or mini-book really - it's quite short. A nice little who dunnit. I am likely to read the sequels one day to see what Sarah is up to next.
