So Pretty It Hurts audiobook

I have been reading Kate White's Bailey Weggins novels very slowly but I swear there is a method to my madness. This is one of my very favorite series and thanks to never wanting it to end, I am reading one every once and a while to satiate my appetite for them. So Pretty it Hurts was definitely worth the wait as it is one pretty wild ride. It ended up being a bit of a locked-room mystery thanks to the house in the country and a snowstorm, and I couldn't help but suspect every single person of the murder. Bailey goes on her usual sleuthing expedition, and the things she finds out are pretty shocking. I loved all of the drama, and I love Bailey's character every time. I listened to the audiobook and was very happy with the narrator, Renee Raudman. I would love to see her narrate more of this series - keep in mind I have no idea who future narrators are, so this is wishful thinking! She made a very believable Bailey, and I really enjoyed her narration for the entire book. The mystery aspect of So Pretty it Hurts really surprised me as with all the other books in this series, and they are like comfort reads for me since I know I will always enjoy them. White's novels are always fun to read and very pacy, as well as being very witty. So Pretty it Hurts managed to keep me interested while also making me laugh and you can't ask for much more than that!

I bought this book at chapters. I enjoyed reading it. It had a good story to it. It is my first book by this author. I hope to read more books by this author.

When Bailey Weggins, a crime reporter for Buzz magazine, joins her friend Jessie for a weekend upstate while her boyfriend Beau is in Sedona, she believes she is just seeking entertainment.

Was the death due to foul play? Meanwhile, the weekend turns into a longer stretch as a snowstorm keeps the guests house bound. A power failure, along with mysterious events that suggest a murderer might be on the loose, keep Bailey's senses tingling.Home at last, she pursues the clues she has uncovered, but other obstacles threaten her life; someone unknown threatens her career; and at the same time, her boyfriend begins questioning her commitment.A real page-turner, "So Pretty It Hurts: A Bailey Weggins Mystery" was a quick read that was full of intriguing and vivid characters and twisting and turning plots. This one earned five stars from me.

This was nice palette cleanser for me since I was fresh off the heels of a True Crime book that was way to heavy and bad. Bailey Weggins provided a nice character that was easy to like and quite clever. Her character reminds me of a younger version of the Murder She Wrote lady. I enjoyed the mystery and over all plot of this book. I was honestly convinced I knew who the culprit was, but was in fact wrong.I love that! This book is not one of those that will stick with me in years to come, but it was a great quick fast past read. If you are fresh off the heels of something heavy, deep and bad.....this will get you out of that rut!

The upside of working for the industry is getting my hands on the ones that just aren't out yet - but here is a little preview for all you Kate White fans!The New York Times Bestselling author of The Sixes will be bringing her magic to the market in early 2012, with this truly fantastic crime novel for all to read.Focusing on Bailey Weggins once again, that true crime writer who has published her own book, but remarks that her small publisher hasn’t promoted it at all and it’s barely at 29,478 on Amazon, has to support herself by working as a reporter. Buzz is a celebrity magazine, and Bailey is the reporter for the ‘real’ crime that is occurring in the world of the ‘stars.’ She’s getting used to her job at Buzz, but still hopes that she’ll have some luck with her book so she can get on with her life. At the moment she is also lucky in love with Beau Regan, who has just announced that he has to be away for the weekend to shoot a documentary in Sedona, Arizona. Bailey, with her busy imagination, is sure that Beau has a girl stashed in Arizona and is both jealous and upset that he won’t be with her on this winter weekend in New York so close to Christmas.For a bit of a payback, when she finds out that Beau is coming home on Saturday, Bailey accepts an invitation from her pal, Jessie, to go to a weekend house party in the country. Scott Cohen, a record producer that Jessie has her eye on at the moment, is having a special party for his number one guest, long-time supermodel, Devon Barr. Along with her, Devon’s agent and his wife; her model friend, Tory; her ex-boyfriend rocker, Tony Quinn; her booker Christian Hayes; her assistant Jane; as well as Richard Parkin, a journalist and author from England, are attending. Apparently, Devon is about to come out with an album for Scott and the party is to introduce her as a singer. This is an interesting crowd, and things begin to get a little testy as the complicated relationships between these people come unglued. To top it all off, there is a huge snowstorm that keeps the guests confined to the house and unable to leave the property until plows come to get them out.There is a scream in the night and Devon’s dead body is found in her room by one of the employees of the homeowner. The police believe that the death is due to complications concerning anorexia, but Bailey is convinced that there is something far more to this death than meets the eye, and is so pushy that she gets in trouble not only with the houseguests, but also with the police and her boss. Like her character, who is a dog with a bone, this author keeps everyone guessing until the very last pages about who the killer could possibly be, and fills the book with plenty of scenes that will have readers holding their breath and laughing hysterically at some of the antics that Bailey goes through to get her story.Kate White’s fans will be super-excited to get this one in their hands!

Sadly, this is the last novel (so far anyway, I have hopes for more!) in the Bailey Weggins murder mystery series by author, Kate White. And once again, I enjoyed this novel even better than the last. I've also enjoyed Ms. White's single title "The Sixes" and look forward to reading her latest novel, "Hush". If light mysteries are on your reading radar, you must give this series a try. Finishing this last novel feels like I'm saying good-bye to an old friend, and that speaks volumes, as mysteries are not usually a genre I read.

After being away from Bailey Weggins for a while, I had forgotten that Kate White's writing can be a little juvenile (for lack of a better word). What I had also forgotten is how easily I get sucked into these suspenseful and thrilling mysteries, and how attached to Bailey I get. Kate White might not be the most descriptive writer in the world, but she sure knows how to put together a great story. I'm already looking forward to the next Bailey Weggins mystery!

Another great book in the Bailey Weggins mystery series. The pacing is excellent. I didn't figure out who the murderer is until the end when Bailey had it narrowed down to two people.

This is another in the Bailey Weggins series, and it does not disappoint! In this story, Bailey is asked by a female co-worker to accompany her to a weekend at a music mogul's home is the country; a world renowned super model is also going to be there for the weekend, along with a few other guests. There is murder, mayhem, and all the suspense you could ask for! I thoroughly enjoyed reading the book!

As my first time reading this book I was sceptical at first if it was good or not. But the more I read it the more it turned out to be a good and enjoyable read and I love and like it a lot. I love the dialogue, scenes, the plot, the characters, and everything else in this book. I give it five stars and recommend it to anyone who wants to read it they should it's really good.

This was my favorite Bailey Wiggins book. Only giving 4 starts because I'm not sure if it that good, or if I liked it because I just finished Resistance Women, which was about Germany in the 1930s and early 40s.

Like her first book, If Looks Could Kill, I was thoroughly consumed by this book. Hard to determine just who the killer is, as many of the characters could have been the one. Toally engrossed in this story line. A must read for everyone who loves mysteries.

This story really makes you think about how far people would go to uncover the truth. There remain unanswered questions in the book at the ending, but since this is a series, those could be expanded in later books. Great read.

I found this book on the clearance table at Barnes and Noble and bought it after reading one of the female character’s name was Devin. That is also my name and is primarily boys who have it, so I thought it was cool. I enjoyed reading it.
