It was quite fun revisiting Covey Jencks and JayJay's world! Just so my readers are extra aware, this audiobook contains three stories Covey Jencks, Covey and JayJay Get Educated and The Chinese Murder of Edward Watts. And if you're interested in my previous review, you can take a look here for Covey and JayJay Get Educated.
Covey Jencks returns to Texas to form a new law pratice having left a profitable practice in Washington, D.C. JayJay Qualls is a incredibly independent Black actress who joins Covey, providing an incredible balance for the reader. Although Covey and JayJay's partnership is based in respect and communication, their relationship also serves as a device for the reader to understand the difficulty of existing in the world around them. The world is definitely not always kind and Shelton L. WIlliams' stories remind us of that while still giving us a strong duo to cheer on. On top of this, we have the overlay of intriguing mysteries and corresponding clues which only serve intrigue the reader to KEEP GOING! And keep going I did...
I am not a big listener of fictional audiobooks; I tend to stick to non-fiction and memoirs. However, I find that fictional audiobooks are super great to listen to when I am stuck doing the daily, everyday tasks that keep my hands busy but my mind free to pay attention to the story. The narrator, Stephen L. Lookadoo, Jr., did a great job in providing a performance that definitely kept my attention (no monotone voice here!). Listening to these tales was so entertaining that I kept looking for chores to do so I could keep listening! Definitely give this trio a listen!
