“That’s what stories are for, Brin realized. They are magic that aid people in times like this. They provide hope, a light to see by when all others are snuffed out”. As most endings to series, Age of Empyre left me with bittersweet feelings.   The final book in the Legends of the First Empire series […]

There are some narrators who I like enough to pay attention to an audio book when they are the narrator.  Julia Whelan is one of those, so I saw she was the narrator and decided to get this one for review. At the very beginning, I knew what was going to happen as it happened.  […]

I definitely like the concept of the Lost Lords of London series, where sons of the gentry were stolen away and presumed dead so others could inherit. In the Dark with the Duke is the second book of the series and follows another boy brought up in the underbelly of London only to find out […]

So I’m a sucker for a British police procedural. Throw in a female team lead and the format being an audiobook, and you have serious interest from me.  Deadly Silence follows a serial killer case. The killer is fast-paced and brutal. Our point of view is Jane Phillips who is leading her old team, but […]

I started listening to The Lies That Bind at about 6 pm when I went out to pull weeds, and continued to listen, finishing the book at 3am.  The story is more life fiction than thriller.  There is a progression for Cecily who has to learn what she really wants, how to build a relationship […]

WOW!  I have to say The Guest List was so engaging.  There are so many different points of view, leading up to the wedding of Julia and Will.  Each narrator voices a different point of view with their thoughts and feelings.  It’s unclear why we get those points of view exactly.  But they show a […]

Let me just start by saying Jay Kristoff and Amie Kaufman…you dirty bastards! How could you end the story right there??? How??? It is so cliffy, it is like ending on that time when Jean Luc Picard became borg or the viewers saw Buffy the Vampire slayers tombstone or like 8 different times on LOST. […]

  My choice is the Angie Pallorino series by Loreth Anne White.  I purchased all the audio books through Audible. I’ve enjoyed some of this author’s other works.   I’m also on a mystery/thriller / suspense mood so this series was a fit.   I expected the genre but The Drowned Girls was so much more.  […]
