J.J. DiBenedetto is author of the Dream Doctor Mysteries and the Jane Barnaby Adventures as well as Mr. Smith and the Roach and lives in Arlington, Virginia with the love of his life and a white cat who rules the roost.

His passions are photography, travel, the opera, the New York Giants, and of course writing.

Since he was very young , he has always been intrigued with the supernatural and things that can't be explained rationally.

By always asking way too many questions, it piqued his interest to the point of setting his writing off and running when he grew up! All the curiosity building up all those years were finally getting put into words to captivate readers. And it hasn't ended. His main goal is to share all the stories he has inside, putting pen to paper. And that's how the Dream Doctor Mysteries were born.

Mr. DiBenedetto welcomes queries and feedback from his loyal readers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Betty & Howard

This book is really good. I adore Betty and Howard they are so cute. The whole story is a letter with Betty writing her friend Kay, starting on the airplane where her and Howard are going on an archeological dig and ending when they get home. While it is short it is packed full of adventure.

Now, if ever I had to write a short story about rekindling the fires of youth in two elderly folks, like Betty and Howard, parents to Sara and Bob and grandparents to a slew of great grandkids, this is the sort of story I would love to write. Naughty in some aspects, fun and with some unexpectedly sly humour, lots of tenderness and patience and a lot of keen and kind insight, even in a backbreaking archeological dig, as these two did. Loved it. Enjoy

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun, Light Book
Reviewed in the United States on May 18, 2014
This was a fun, lighthearted listen for a weekend drive. I thoroughly enjoyed every moment of Betty's letter to her friend. I found myself smiling and chuckling many times while listening to Betty and Howard's adventures. Betty's tale has a distinct Erma Bombeck quality which is quite enjoyable. I also really liked the "letter" format, which made it really feel like you were actually reading a letter from a close friend traveling abroad.

The narrator, Nicola Bryant, did an amazing job with the material. She brought Betty and Howard to life for the listener.

I highly recommend this fun, light book. It's a great, short listen that will leave you smiling.
