Title: Burning Author: Danielle Rollins Narrator: Dana Dae Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 21 mins Language: English Release date: 08-05-16 Publisher: Audible Studios for Bloomsbury Ratings: 3 of 5 out of 2 votes Genres: Teens, Mysteries & Thrillers Publisher's Summary: Tucked away, deep in the woods, Brunesfield Correctional Facility's cold walls and empty hallways keep dangerous girls away from the world...girls like Angela Davis, whose fate was determined by one bad decision. After a few years in juvie, Angela is finally close to her release, but everything changes the day a new warden with dark plans takes over. Angela knows evil when she sees it, and as strange disappearances and frightening incidents happen more and more frequently, it becomes clear that Brunesfield could be the end of them. Angela and her friends must find a way to get out, but how can they save themselves from the very place keeping them locked away? From the author of The Merciless comes an atmospheric thriller rich with secrets and conspiracies that will have readers on the edges of their seats. Critic Reviews: "Stephen King's Firestarter meets Walter Dean Myers' Monster.... With its subtle yet timely commentary on police brutality, interracial dating, and LGBT rights, the novel addresses contemporary issues without didacticism. A wildly fulfilling and frightening read." (starred review,Kirkus Reviews) Members Reviews: Not as Chilling as I would've Hoped, but still Very Mysterious! Danielle Rollins brings us a new story to have us jumping at the shadows, or in this case, the flames. Burning isnât your ordinary girl-discovers-she-has-magical-powers kind of read. Oh no. This one is far more than that simple line. This one gets deep into the terrifying things that come from such a situation. Angela has been spending the past few years in a juvenile detention center for breaking and entering, and basically stealing stuff. We learn more about how she came to that life, but the real story focuses on her interactions with little girl named Jessica who is also brought to juvie. Right away Angela, is scared of this strange little girl and how at times it looks like her eyes have turned pure black. Angela and her cellmates start to notice certain changes being made to the prison. A group known as SciGirls comes to help get the girls involved in their program which basically gets girls involved in science and whatnot. The leader, Dr. Gruen has a special interest in Jessica and wants Angelaâs help in getting Jessica to open up. Angela soon learns that Jessica is no ordinary girl. I wouldnât exactly call this book a horror novel like Danielleâs other books written under her pen name Danielle Vega. This one is more of a thriller with a twist of paranormal tied in. The book is pretty freaky too in some spots. Itâs definitely one that keep you turning the pages. While the pacing isnât overly fast, itâs not exactly slow either. Itâs just the right amount to keep you invested and slowly show you its tantalizing secrets. I think one of the most terrifying aspects of this book was its setting! Weâre talking a prisonâso to speak. Prison for teens at least, so yeah juvie but still the same atmosphere in some ways. Angela is a criminal, so are her friends, their young age kept them from being tried as adults. And based on their crimes, Angela and her friends are sort of the worse defenders. So I was actually a bit surprised when Jessica came to stay with them in their cell.

Title: You Have Seven Messages Author: Stewart Lewis Narrator: Kate Metroka Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 7 mins Language: English Release date: 11-15-13 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 6 votes Genres: Teens, Mysteries & Thrillers Publisher's Summary: It's been a year since Luna's mother, the fashion-model wife of a successful film director, was hit and killed by a taxi in New York's East Village. Luna, her father, and her little brother, Tile, are still struggling with grief. When Luna goes to clean out her mother's old studio, she's stunned to find her mom's cell phone there - charged and holding seven unheard messages. As Luna begins to listen to them, she learns more about her mother's life than she ever wanted to know . . . and she comes to realize that the tidy tale she's been told about her mother's death may not be the whole truth. Editorial Reviews: Narrator Kate Metroka's clear, disarming voice walks a line between innocence and disappointment in this delicate story about grief and closure. It's been a year and Luna is still struggling to cope with the death of her mother, a famous fashion model. While she is cleaning out her mother's studio, Luna finds her mother's cell phone, which contains seven messages. Luna listens to one message each day and begins to discover things about her mother's life that upturns everything she's ever believed about her parents. Metroka allows a note of melancholy to sound through this coming-of-age story and gently brings Luna's new-found maturity to a satisfying close. Members Reviews: Interesting concept and great from beginning to end! I loved this book. Read it in one day. I have never read this author, Stewart Lewis, before, but he writes like a woman thinks. I would thought that a woman wrote it. He understands feelings that daughters go through. This is a story about a girl, with wealthy parents, whose parents she thought were happily married. Her mother is killed in a car accident and she goes to her mother's studio (painting) in another location, and finds her mother's cell phone. There are 7 messages that lead her to information about her parents that she didn't know. Great subject matter, keeps you interested, love the personality of the daughter and the relationships she has in the book. I say this is a must read. Great book. . I will look for other books by this author. Loved his writing style. Forgive, Forget Understand, Value Okay let's be honest I really loved this book. The romance was good and the adventure to what kind of a person Moon's mother really was is awesome. Every person is different and has a lot of layers. In tracing her mother's foot steps, Moon learns who her mother really was and finds truth. She also expresses herself though her photography, how she sees the world. That's how artists are. An artist is not an artist just because they are just good at doing the skill and that their hands are good at creating art, but how they see the world. They capture and inspire how they see things. People have lots of layers, and this book conveys that and how relationships form and change. It really shows how people are and that you should forgive and forget, understand and value. I also feel that in some ways it encourages you to continue on with what you want to do in life and go for it, cause eventually it will pay off if you keep trying. Eventually you'll get there, if your willing to keep on trying. Bought the book I happened to be in a school library waiting for an event and I picked up this book out of boredom. Before I knew it I was 20 pages in.

Growing up, Adrien and his sister, Grace, competed viciously for everything. It wasn't easy being the adopted sibling, but Adrien tried to get along; it was Grace who didn't want anything to do with him. When their scientist parents died in a terrible lab fire, there was nothing left to hold them together. Now, after years apart, Adrien and Grace are forced to reunite at the elite boarding school where their parents were teachers. Being back around everyone he used to know makes Adrien question the person he's become, while being back around Grace makes him feel like someone he doesn't want to be. For as much as Adrien wants to move on, someone seems determined to reopen old wounds. And when Adrien starts to suspect that Grace knows more about their parents' deaths than she let on, he realizes there are some wounds no amount of time can heal. If Adrien isn't careful, they may even kill him. Members Reviews: so proud of Zac! This book is amazing and completely different than anything else Zac has created!! I haven't read a book in years but this one definitely got me back into it.

Useless Bay Audiobook by M. J. Beaufrand

bdssaigon.net2@gmail.com (M. J. Beaufrand) — Tue, 07 Feb 2017 20:57:20 GMT

Beaufrand Narrator: Michael Crouch, Caitlin Davies Format: Unabridged Length: 4 hrs and 49 mins Language: English Release date: 02-07-17 Publisher: Blackstone Audio, Inc. Genres: Teens, Mysteries & Thrillers Publisher's Summary: On Whidbey Island, the Gray quintuplets are the stuff of legend. Pixie and her brothers have always been bigger and blonder than their neighbors, as if they were birthed from the island itself. Together they serve as an unofficial search-and-rescue team for the island, saving tourists and locals alike from the forces of wind and sea. But when a young boy goes missing, the mysteries start to pile up. While searching for him, they find his mother's dead body instead - and realize that something sinister is in their midst. Members Reviews: Yet another great book by M. J. Beaufrand. I recommend that you read all of her books. Yet another great book by Ms. Beaufrand. I loved it! Love the characters and the story line. Cute and quaint mystery. A charming little mystery with a beautiful backdrop and an intriguing set of quintuplets. Almost felt southern gothic, but set in the Pacific Northwest, instead. I was surprised to see this described as a 'gritty, psychological thriller' here on the goodreads page. This is neither gritty, psychological, nor thrilling. It's the type of mystery you would have read as a child on summer break, grabbing a book and climbing up a tree to read all afternoon in its branches. The narrator's friendly tone, their awe and respect for the rugged coast they call home, and the quaint strangeness of the Gray quintuplets feels nostalgic and welcoming. A warning for animal lovers - some bad things do happen. But its handled in a way that feels respectful, and the protagonist deals with it in a healthy and responsive manner. I usually cannot tolerate any hint of bad things happening to animals, and was surprised at my reaction to it in this book. Somehow, maybe the way the character reacts, or maybe just the respectful manner of the book towards nature overall, softened the blow and made it easier to move on. A quaint, charming and nostalgic little mystery that takes you away to a misty coast studded with trees. Lame plot. This review has MASSIVE SPOILERS! I hate mystery stories that make no sense after the mystery is solved. Useless Bay is that type of story - once the whodunnit is solved, the why-they-dunnit was ridiculous - the characters acted in a manner that allowed the plot to advance, but the reason for these actions was completely illogical or inexplicable. I am going to describe some of these strange actions by the novel's characters, and so I am going to reveal most of the plot. There are MAJOR SPOILERS in the following paragraphs. Do not read this review if you intend to read this book. The central crime of this novel is the murder of Lyudmila (wife of zillionaire Mr. Shepherd) by Joyce (administrative secretary of Mr Shepherd) because Joyce wants to become Mr Shepherd's next wife. Joyce strangles Lyudmila, but the murder is witnessed by 11 yr old Grant Shepherd. Grant is so traumitized by the strangulation of his mother, that he asks Pixie to row him across Useless Bay - but he doesn't tell Pixie what he saw (why not?). Pixie rows part way across the Bay, and then turns around and rows back, not learning why Grant is upset. Grant then goes to his sister Meredith and Pixie's brother Sammy, and tells THEM about the murder.

The Adjusters Audiobook by Andrew Taylor

Title: The Adjusters Author: Andrew Taylor Narrator: Joe Jameson Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 26 mins Language: English Release date: 06-01-12 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 3 of 5 out of 3 votes Genres: Teens, Mysteries & Thrillers Publisher's Summary: Welcome to Newton, the perfect town: where the kids get perfect grades, lead perfect lives and never break the rules. But something is rotten at the heart of Newton, and Henry Ward is willing to break all the rules to discover the truth. The ruthless clinic and psycho cop who control the town will do anything to stop him. And their methods are brutal. The Adjusters is a heart-stopping action adventure for young adults with a terrifying twist, from acclaimed author Andrew Taylor. Warning: contains violence. Members Reviews: A touch of John Wyndham Henry is a hero in the making, though not in the conventional sense. The rebellious teenager is forced to join his Mother (widowed) as she seeks employment somewhere beyond the proverbial black stump. Everything is perfect in Newton - not! I'm not sure this book is for teenagers as it has its graphic moments - in gory detail - but this aging teenager thoroughly enjoyed the roller coaster that was Henry's ride to fame. The writing style has a touch of John Wyndham about it (and that is a complement) with its skilful crafting of plot-twists and turns-yet not overly complicating things with too many characters and sub-plots. This is my first Andrew Taylor ebook and it will not be my last. Not a formatting issue in site is a bonus. Peter Eerden A book for younger readers Unfortunately, I thought I had found an Andrew Taylor novel that I had not read. Instead I found another Andrew Taylor who obviously writes for young teens. Even for those so young, it was a very simple read and predictable.

Liberty Audiobook by Andrea Portes

Title: Liberty Subtitle: The Spy Who (Kind of) Liked Me Author: Andrea Portes Narrator: Tara Sands Format: Unabridged Length: 6 hrs and 52 mins Language: English Release date: 06-06-17 Publisher: HarperAudio Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 4 votes Genres: Teens, Mysteries & Thrillers Publisher's Summary: The best-selling author of Anatomy of a Misfit and The Fall of Butterflies, Andrea Portes, is back with another irresistible snarky heroine in Liberty . What is a hero? Paige Nolan knows. Edward Raynes, the young man who exposed America's unconstitutional spying techniques, is a hero, even if half the dum-dums in the country think he's a traitor. Or Paige's parents, journalists who were captured by terrorists while telling stories of the endangered and oppressed. They were heroes, too. Were...or are - no one has ever told Paige if they're still alive or dead. Not heroes? Anyone in the government who abandoned her parents, letting them rot somewhere halfway across the world. And certainly not Paige herself, who despite her fluency in five languages and mastery of several obscure martial arts (thanks, Mom!) could do nothing to save them. Couldn't, that is, until she's approached by Madden Carter, an undercover operative who gives her a mission - fly to Russia, find Raynes, and discover what other government secrets he's stockpiled. In exchange he'll reopen the case on her missing parents. She's given a code name and a cover as a foreign exchange student. Who is a hero? Not Paige Nolan, but maybe, just maybe, Liberty is. Members Reviews: Protagonist Was Too Annoying To Finish At first, I appreciated the pop references, but the meandering monologues bogged down the book. The protagonist, and by extension the author, loved to hear themselves speak. This story was like a date that started off okay, but kept getting worse the more you learned about the other person. I couldn't finish it.

Don't You Trust Me? Audiobook by Patrice Kindl

Author: Patrice Kindl Narrator: Bailey Carr Format: Unabridged Length: 6 hrs and 19 mins Language: English Release date: 08-30-16 Publisher: Recorded Books Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 4 votes Genres: Teens, Mysteries & Thrillers Publisher's Summary: A teenage girl switches identities with a stranger and pulls off a long-term scam in this smart, sarcastic thriller perfect for fans of Ally Carter. Don't you trust me? I mean, look at me. Blond, blue eyed, the very image of innocence. Pretty enough, if you care about that kind of thing. I don't. But would a normal person switch identities with some wet mess of a girl at the airport just to get her to stop bawling about being separated from her loser boyfriend and sent to live with some distant relatives? Nope, she wouldn't. Yet I did. I'm not as normal as you think. And you'll just have to trust me. Members Reviews: Deviously Delicious 5 Audiobook I think the main reason I enjoyed Dont You Trust Me? as much as I did was because it was so unique to me. Ive never heard anything even remotely close to this. It must be very difficult to turn a sociopathic character into a protagonist because Patrice Kindl is the only author Ive ever known to do it and she did it remarkably well. Morgan just might be one of my favorite characters of all time. It was so refreshing to hear about a clever, calculating teenage girl in a Young Adult story. This girl was so anti-Mary Sue that I fell in love with her from the synopsis. The things she did were atrocious, yet I was still rooting for her to get away with them all. That is basically like pulling a literary rabbit out of a hat. The only portion of the story that somewhat bothered me was Morgans treatment of animals. Although, in retrospect, it wasnt as disturbing as it could have been and it really landed the strongest blow to me in Morgans character development. Kindl handled the topic of the stereotypical sociopathic treatment of animals with delicacy, while still making an effective point about Morgans character. Im very grateful for her tact on that matter. Dont You Trust Me? was an astounding homerun, in my opinion. It was both amusing and thrilling at the same time. I wasnt sure what to expect from a YA Thriller, but this far exceeded my expectations. It was light enough to be entertaining, yet it still had a lot of substance. Morgan was an incredibly well-developed character and Kindl further recognized Morgans value as a character by not thrusting a love interest upon her. I cant remember the last YA story I heard without a love interest! My prediction that this story would be hilariously delicious, based on the synopsis, was absolutely accurate. Delicious is the perfect word to describe Morgan and her felonious activities that seem to be drawn directly from a soap opera script. And who doesnt love a good soap? Im crossing my fingers in hopes that this story gets turned into a movie or, better yet, a book series! Im about 200% positive that Morgan has plenty of trouble left to get into and I want to hear about it all. Narration review: Bailey Carr expertly narrated Dont You Trust Me? and added so much to the listening experience. There were times when I couldnt help but chuckle because the voice she gave Morgan so thickly dripped with sarcasm. I can imagine that voicing Morgan required a delicate balance between remaining true to the sociopathic character and still having her come across as a somewhat lovable protagonist. Okay, maybe lovable is the wrong word.

Something's not right in Beach Haven. Jen Noonan's father thinks a move to Harmony House is the key to salvation, but to everyone who has lived there before, it is a portal to pure horror. After her alcoholic mother's death, Jen's father cracked. He dragged Jen to a dilapidated old manor on the shore of New Jersey to start their new lives - but Jen can tell that the place has an unhappy history. She can feel it the same way she can feel her anger flowing out of her, affecting the world in strange ways she can't explain. But Harmony House is more than just a creepy old estate. It's got a chilling past - and the more Jen discovers its secrets, the more the house awakens. Visions of a strange boy who lived in the house long ago follow Jen wherever she goes, and her father's already-fragile sanity disintegrates before her eyes. As the forces in the house join together to terrorize Jen, she must find a way to escape the past she didn't know was haunting her - and the mysterious and terrible power she didn't realize she had. Members Reviews: Save your money and pass on this one This was one of those books that I have been looking forward to since I read the synopsis and saw the cover and just failed epically. Where should I begin? From the massive plot holes and the confusing mindset of Jen, the main character, I finished the book going "What just happened and what did I just read? I couldn't even write a review without massive spoilers that I'm posting on my blog page but I won't post here. There is no way for me to write this review without spoilers. I'm also going to apologize now and say I HATE writing one star reviews but because of how bad this is written, I need to warn people away from this book. This was a confusing jumble of questions with no answers and the lack of any real type of horror. I wish I had been warned before picking up this book and saved my money. I feel sad because this sounded like it had huge potential but just failed so badly. Five Stars Great Book! Loved it Nic!! Can't wait for your next book. xoxo Suzy Harmony house. It was a very good book!!! It kept you interested and was suspenseful!!! Different than expected. A page turner mixed with a little of The Shining and Firestarter. But ultimately felt like something was missing. Good concept and solid writing. Fantastic Loved his other work and this was of the same caliber. Great story with enough twists to keep you on the edge of your seat.

With the help of her friend and colleague, Kale Creed, November is soon caught up in a dark world of strange and inexplicable mysteries, each with a deadly twist. Three novella length mysteries in one book: "The Dead Girl in the Room" The Kidnapping at Blackwater Farm The Menacing Stranger Members Reviews: Wonderful narration! I received this book as a gift and after listening to the narration I would gladly buy the follow up book in the series. The writing draws you into the mysteries that November and her friend Kale just can't seem to pass up. The star here is the narration. After recently listening to a few hours of bad narration of a book I really enjoyed reading, I have a new appreciation for an amazing narrator. Entertaining tales of mystery Any additional comments? November Lake book 1 is a collection of 3 novella length stories, that take place over the course of a week, with each story taking place just a few days after each other. The three novellas are connected by the main Characters, November and Kale, who are young police recruits. And each of the stories is its own self contained whodunnit. The stories are entertaining enough but the time frame feels a little unrealistic. What are the chances that 2 young recruits would find themselves caught up in the middle of 3 crimes in the space of a week... especially when they aren't 'on the job' It wont stop me reading November Lake book 2 though.

Thirteen Days of Midnight Audiobook by Leo Hunt

Title: Thirteen Days of Midnight Author: Leo Hunt Narrator: Richard Halverson Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 7 mins Language: English Release date: 08-25-15 Publisher: Candlewick on Brilliance Audio Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 2 votes Genres: Teens, Mysteries & Thrillers Publisher's Summary: In a devilishly dark and funny debut, a teen finds himself the unwitting beneficiary of eight enslaved and angry ghosts seeking bloody vengeance. When Luke Manchett's estranged father dies suddenly, he leaves his son a dark inheritance: a collection of eight restless spirits, known as his Host, who want revenge for their long enslavement. Once they figure out that Luke has no clue how to manage them, they become increasingly belligerent, and eventually mutiny. Halloween (the night when ghosts reach the height of their power) is fast approaching, and Luke knows his Host is planning something far more trick than treat. Armed with only his father's indecipherable notes, a locked copy of The Book of Eight, and help from school outcast Elza Moss, Luke has just thirteen days to uncover the closely guarded secrets of black magic and send his unquiet spirits to their eternal rest - or join their ghostly ranks himself. Members Reviews: 3.5 Stars Sixteen year old Luke Manchett is a popular kid at school. He plays rugby, hangs out with all the right people, and as a bonus the most popular girl in the school likes him. When his father, the well known Dr. Horatio Manchett dies and leaves Luke everything, Luke discovers that all is not as it seems. he gets dragged into a world of ghosts and necromancy and someone is always watching, waiting for his next move, counting on his mistakes. I enjoyed reading this book, and the idea is great. However, I didn't find many things that made 13 Days of Midnight stand out from other wonderful books. I rarely read books written by male authors (although I'd love to, there just don't seem to be as many!) and this one was a refreshing read. In the end I liked the ghosts more than the main characters. (I mean, what!) I understand that Luke is a typical teenager, obsessed with fitting in, but his trust in Elza seems sudden and poorly constructed on the writer's part. The ghosts get a much better development. The Vassal is seemingly trustworthy, but soon his betrayal is discovered. The Judge appears to only speak the truth, but his words carry more weight. Elza is intriguing. I'd like to know more about her, motives, interests, etc. I think her original distrust of Luke also faded too quickly with very little explanation. I liked the plot a lot more than the characters, the storyline was complex and not always predictable. Perhaps the second book will act on the promise of this series. Good YA horror tale 13 Days of Midnight falls more on the horror end of the YA paranormal spectrum. Itâs not the type of book I read very often, but I found myself enjoying it a lot. Luke Manchett has been estranged from his father for years, so he is surprised to learn that his father has died and left him a large inheritance. All he has to do to receive the money is sign a rather vague contract with his fatherâs lawyer. Luke hesitates, but with millions at stake, he agrees to sign. Then Luke finds out that his father was a necromancer, and that he has agreed to take on his fatherâs Host of eight spirits. These spirits go beyond creepy; some of them are furious with their imprisonment, and when they realize Luke has no idea what heâs doing, they determine to murder him and free themselves. With Halloween fast approaching, Luke only has days to figure out how to save himself, his invalid mother, and everyone in his town from these vengeful spirits.

Sixteen-year-old Wen assists her father in his medical clinic, housed in a slaughterhouse staffed by the Noor, men hired as cheap factory labor. Wen often hears the whisper of a ghost in the slaughterhouse, a ghost who grants wishes to those who need them most. And after one of the Noor humiliates Wen, the ghost grants an impulsive wish of hers - brutally. Guilt-ridden, Wen befriends the Noor, including the outspoken leader, a young man named Melik. At the same time, she is lured by the mystery of the ghost. As deadly accidents fuel tensions within the factory, Wen is torn between her growing feelings for Melik, who is enraged at the sadistic factory bosses and the prejudice faced by his people at the hand of Wen's, and her need to appease the ghost, who is determined to protect her against any threat - real or imagined. Will she determine whom to trust before the factory explodes, taking her down with it? Members Reviews: Action packed & Emotional the narrator was awesome. This is a great story. I loved it, and so will others that read it. Liked it but not near enough I liked this book but I didn't like it enough, if that makes sense? First of all, it was surprisingly gruesome. I usually don't mind that but even I was taken aback at times: it was depressingly gory, severed limbs, messed up insides and all that. Sarah Fine painted a very dark atmosphere of non-stop graft without hope for betterment. I swear, it was almost dystopian! Secondly, I didn't realise this was a historical fantasy until half way into the book and kept trying to guess time periods and areas and getting confused. The racism and lechery was very, very rampant in a society of extremely hypocritical views on women's place in it. As a result there was a lot of slut-shaming. The heroine did it, her friends did ti, and everyone else was very happy to do it too. I was frustrated and tired f hearing it. Third issue was the instalove between Wen and Melik. I found it really hard to digest. She starts comparing the Noor to animals and within couple of weeks it's all moony eyes and dramatic proclamations. *eye roll* At last, the narrator herself did not suit the book in my opinion. Alexandra Bailey sounded distinctly Caucasian and I couldn't get over that as in my head the voice didn't match my image of Wen. Saying all that, this was a very Gothic, strangely compelling tale, and I enjoyed Ghost's character the most. He had layers, he had development, and I only hope to read more about him in the next book. Also, the atmosphere of the gruesome factory was a fantastic background. I'll be listening to the next book, because Of Metal and Wishes left me curious, even if I wasn't sold on the love story.

From the producer of the hit TV series Bones and number-one Sunday Times best-selling author of the Temperance Brennan series. Tory Brennan and the Virals are forced to confront the existence of a rival pack - The Trinity - who wants them off the scene, declaring war by engraving "One Territory. One Pack" on a local landmark. Whats more this packs powers seem stronger, and their eyes glow red rather than golden when they flare. Chance Claybourne, who now owns his fathers pharmaceutical company, shares The Trinitys powers - he accidentally infected himself and his ex-lab tech, Will Speckman. Chance claims hes on the Virals side, but can they trust him? And if Speckman is one of The Trinity, who are the other two?As the tension mounts between the two packs, an even greater threat looms. Covert government agents are closing in on them, determined to find out exactly how their powers work, to experiment on them. Have The Trinity pack given them the Virals to save themselves? Or are both packs at risk? Members Reviews: I had sort of figured the end before the end Another successful VIRAL story line! Ahh, I bet the next one, has Chance and Ella hand in hand! Now, there is a very large PACK. Terminal. Final book of 5 I just really enjoyed this story. I was sad by the ending, I wish there had been a lovely surprise at the end. I've enjoyed all of these books in the VIRALS series. GRIPPING As always this is beautifully narrated by Cristin Milioti with fab voice distinction adding significantly to the story line. This woman is an amazing artist. When you combine this with the ever skilful writing in this series it is another winner. No spoilers here but if you have read or listened to the previous books in this series you don't need me to tell you to carry on to this one. If this is the first Virals book you have considered I recommend you treat yourself and start at the beginning - I don't think you will be disappointed Easy listening. great escapism. By no means Shakespeare, but very light and enjoyable. I know it written for teens but cheers me up and let's me escape real life for a few hours. Good author terrible reading Why on earth does every speaker need to be identified by their initials before their speaking part. I barely listened to all the first chapter as It started driving me nuts. Surely the different speaking tones lets you know it's a new speaker.

Alexandra Gastone has a simple plan: graduate high school, get into Princeton, work for the CIA, and serve her great nation. She was told the plan back when her name was Milena Rokva, back before the real Alexandra and her family were killed in a car crash. Milena was trained to be a sleeper agent by Perun, a clandestine organization from her true homeland of Olissa. There, Milena learned everything she needed to infiltrate the life of CIA analyst Albert Gastone, Alexandra's grandfather, and the ranks of America's top intelligence agency. For seven years, "Alexandra" has been on standby and life's been good. Grandpa Albert loves her, and her strategically chosen boyfriend, Grant, is amazing. But things are about to change. Perun no longer needs her at the CIA in five years' time. They need her active now. Between her cover as a high school girl - juggling a homecoming dance, history reports, and an increasingly suspicious boyfriend - and her mission in this high-stakes spy game, the boundaries of her two lives are beginning to blur. Will she stay true to the country she barely remembers, or has her loyalty shattered along with her identity? Members Reviews: thrilled to have listened I loved it review coming soon.....thank you Audio book Boom for providing this copy Great Book! I was given a free copy of this book to review. This was such a great book. I loved that it had some suspense, a little romance, and some funny parts. I enjoyed the characters and the storyline. I can't wait to read the next book in the series!

But people said all sorts of stupid stuff. Nobody really knew anything. Nobody really knew Jimmy. I guess you could say I knew Jimmy as well as anyone (which was not very well). I knew what scared him. And I knew he had dreams even if I didn't understand them. Even if he nearly ruined my life to pursue them. Jimmy's dead now, and I definitely know that better than anyone. I know about blood and bone and how bodies decompose. I know about shadows and stones and hatchets. I know what a last cry for help sounds like. I know what blood looks like on my own hands. What I don't know is if I can trust my own eyes. I don't know who threw the stone. Who swung the hatchet? Who are the shadows? What do the living owe the dead? Members Reviews: I really loved this book I really loved this book. It hit on issues that alot of us deal with and don't know how to handle. I think it would be great for teens. but I must say that it was a fast read and you really get sucked into the story It started off a little slow for my taste, but I must say that it was a fast read and you really get sucked into the story.

Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 2 votes Genres: Teens, Mysteries & Thrillers Publisher's Summary: Marina is born of privilege. Her mother, Sveta, is the Soviet Unions prima ballerina; an international star handpicked by the regime. But Sveta is afflicted with a mysterious second sight and becomes obsessed with exposing a horrific state secret. Then she disappears. Fearing for their lives, Marina and her father defect to Brooklyn. Marina struggles to reestablish herself as a dancer at the American School of Ballet. But her enigmatic partner, Sergei, makes concentration almost impossible, as does the fact that Marina shares her mothers "gift", and has a vision of her fathers murder at the hands of the Russian crooks and con artists she thought theyd left behind. Now Marina must navigate the web of intrigue surrounding her mothers disappearance, her ability, and exactly whom she can - and cant - trust. Members Reviews: Fast paced, interesting, educational, and a really fun read. This book is intended primarily for young adults, but as a 74-year-old I found it an excellent read. Ms. Kiem has a deep knowledge of Russian culture, particularly during the cold war era and the stresses/issues relating to being Russian at that time. She gives us an in-depth and educational perspective of the world (particularly America) from a Russian teenager's perspective. She has woven together a fast paced story that combines romance and suspense with interesting and diverse characters while treating us readers to an uncanny ability to communicate to us a rather complicated plot. If I were as talented with words as Ms. Kiem, I would be better equipped to tell you what a good book it is and how much I enjoyed reading it. I do hope there will be a sequel(s)because I'll be among the first in line to purchase it. Well done! Dancer, Daughter, Traitor, Spy I thoroughly enjoyed this book. While possibly written for a demographic that I am no longer a part of, it was very enjoyable, suspenseful and gripping. Will definitely recommend it. Four Stars Given as a gift. Like nothing I've ever read A fascinating glimpse of worlds I know nothing about... ballet, Russian language and mass transit, America from an immigrant's perspective. And a very entertaining story line. The author clearly knows her subjects. More to come? Much anticipated debut The fall of the Soviet Union. 80's music. Intrigue. Loyalty. Suspicion. Elizabeth Kiem's debut had it all. I can't wait to see what happens if and when Marina crosses the ocean once again...

Unaware that the killer still lingers, she rushes to her mother's side, only to be grabbed from behind and then everything fades to black. After a year of retrograde amnesia and battling personal demons, Leo's dreams are getting worse -she's starting to remember. More bodies are discovered, and they seem to be oddly linked to her mom's unsolved homicide. When Leo allows her friend, Henry, to drag her into the haunted Lucien Mansion, misty ghosts appear, ghosts that just might lead to her mother's murderer. Will Leo let her memories threaten her into a relapse or, will she fight to find her mother's killer - only to become his next victim? Members Reviews: Captivating mystery This is a captivating, well narrated story that kept me interested to the very end. Leocadia is a traumatized teenager who is trying to get her life back together after stumbling onto her mothers murder. Almost a year later she still has retrograde amnesia but her memory is coming back in bits and pieces and she is starting to win her battle to stay off the drugs she used to escape her nightmares. Leo's friend, Henry has his own demons, and when they are witness to two murders while parting in a graveyard, things start to heat up. Combine this with creepy and ghostly happenings in an abandoned mansion the teens explore, and Leo's world is once again shaken to its core. The characters in this book were complex, interesting and well portrayed by the narrator; Leo is a flawed but appealing character, you can not help but sympathize with and care about her. Her two love interests are totally contrasting characters, one a clean, caring hunk and the other a flawed, angry, loner. Although I am not keen on love triangles, this one works very well in this book, adding tension, intrigue and interest to the plot. This was a fast paced enjoyable mystery with suspense, romance and a hint of ghosts. I received this audiobook at no cost in exchange for an honest review. Enthralling. First off - Caitlin Kelly was absolutely fabulous! Top notch narrator - very professional. The book itself was attention grabbing throughout. No zoning out on this one! I thought the portrayal of teen life was very realistic on a day to day basis. I was kept guessing and did not figure out the ending ahead of time. Love it when that happens. The ending was surprising and rather graphic. Great title, too. I held my breath several times throughout this book. I'm guessing this is a young adult book and I think that age group would appreciate the bigger than life ending more than an older demographic. I liked it because I was not expecting it. Definitely worth a credit although I was very fortunate and was gifted this audiobook in exchange for an honest review. YA Mystery Any additional comments? This is not my typical genre to read,but having enjoyed another book by this author I gave it a chance.I liked the book overall,yet I felt frustrated with Leo's inability to realize how dangerous another character was.The mystery surrounding her mothers death was interesting.The narrator did a good job and has a pleasant voice.I received an audiobook from the author in exchange for an honest review. Really impressive writing :) Real....if I had to choose a word to describe the author's writing, that's what I would choose.

Lately Jek has been pulling away from Lulu, just as she's coming to terms with how she really feels about him. Just as she was ready to see if there could be something more between them. But Lulu's thoughts are derailed by a mysterious new guy who's showing up at local parties. Hyde is the definition of a bad boy, and everybody knows it...but no one can seem to resist his charms. And even though Lulu's heart belongs to Jek, she can't deny Hyde's attraction either. She also knows that there's something not quite right about Hyde. That the rumors of his backwoods parties make them sound a little more dangerous than what any of her friends are accustomed to. And she doesn't like the fact that Hyde seems to be cozying up to Jek, and that they seem to be intertwined in ways that have Lulu worrying for Jek's safety. If Hyde has a dark secret, Lulu is determined to find out what it is, and to help Jek...before it's too late for both of them. Critic Reviews: "Teens who enjoy suspense and horror will gravitate toward this fast-paced page-turner." (School Library Journal) Members Reviews: More a Rehashing, Less a Retelling Jek/Hyde is more a rehashing and less a retelling. The bookâRossâ debut in young adult literatureâcenters on Lupita âLuluâ Gutierrez and Jayesh Emerson âJekâ Kapoor, two science nerds who have been best friends for as long as long as they can remember. But just as Lulu is coming to terms with her more-than-platonic feelings for her best friend, Jek starts distancing himself and spending all his time holed up in his room/lab with his experiments. It doesnât help that thereâs a mysteriousâand unmistakably alluringânew guy in town, who is the very definition of a bad boy, and who may or may not have connections with Jek. Confession time: I have not read the Stevenson classic. Nor have I seen any of the bajillion movie adaptations. But I feel like The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde has been so embedded into our collective cultural consciousness that itâs almost as if I have read the book without actually having read it. And Jek/Hyde totally validates my judgment; whatever hope I had of mystery, I went to the wrong party. To be fair, the novel kept me relatively entertained âtil the very last page. It took a couple of chapters for the story to find its footing, but find it it did and it maintained a good pacing all through out the book. I also like how the tone and setting effectively conjure a sense of helplessness and perpetual confinement. The book is set in a small town in the Midwestern, and that was executed well. But then we get to the actual narrative and it gets less than stellar. There is little character development, cases of present-but-not-present adults, and underdeveloped subplots, all culminating in a heavily expository conclusion and one that is out of touch with the rest of the main characterâs journey. Thereâs also a huge disconnect between what the reader is being told versus what he is being shown. Lulu has a tendency to pine for Jek, which is fine, thatâs her thing. But not once was I convinced of the friendshipâor any sort of connectionâbetween her and Jek she often talks about.

There she takes up the job as housekeeper to the young and handsome, yet mysterious, Thaddeus Blake. Warned that he has some curious habits, Winter soon realizes that all is not as it firsts appears at the remote mansion where she now lives and works. Blind to the real danger that she is in, Winter finds herself becoming attracted to Thaddeus. With nowhere to run and no one to turn to, she slowly succumbs to his strange requests. But none of them are as strange as his requests for her to stand, each night, in the moonlight. Members Reviews: An Eerie Wintry Tale If you could sum up Moonlight in three words, what would they be? Eerie supernatural chilling What was one of the most memorable moments of Moonlight? The description of the three attackers Any additional comments? This book is not what I expected, but Im starting to get used to that having read other books by this author. Winnie, a feisty girl who lives on the streets is brought to a large house in the country by Thaddeus Blake as his housekeeper. She suspects that something about the situation is very wrong but never in her wildest dreams did she imagine the terrors that found her. In this twisted tale of love, revenge and fear, the author keeps us guessing until the very last page. Winnie isnt completely naïve but innocent and as a reader you root for her to find the truth, find a way to survive. This is a very eerie and wintry tale, and I thoroughly recommend the audio version. The Sweet Start Of Love & Adventure I have never listened to anything by Tim O'Rourke before but thought I would give it a try! I am soooo glad that I did ... I enjoyed every second from the strange beginning verging on stalking and desperation to the happy friendship that steadily develops and has you wondering what will happen next! What a well written story with unusual qualities and themes ... A must read! As for the narration by Anna Parker-Naples; when I first started listening I found her voice a bit dull .... However as the story continued I actually enjoyed the way she changed voices and expressed panic, worry, fear, longing and many other emotions by adjusting her tone and speed at just the right moment. I would quite happily read another story that was written or narrated by them! A MUST READ!

I have fallen in LOVE with this story, a brand new series, Brewer Brothers. Nancy, I'm one of your biggest fans but you know I only listen to stories, I don't have time to read and most narrators do an amazing job bringing life to a story. Please, please don't forget to add it to Audible. I can connect you to some amazing narrators that won't leave you penniless. I know if you read my reviews, you'll read that I don't like romance stories but I really enjoyed this contemporary romance. The story was perfect, it has a much needed meaning in this story I found, well for me, I found this story has a great meaning so see if you will find it. I especially found Candy and Dave loveable, sweet, and fun character's. Nancy, you won me over writing about the car model that Candy got when she was in high school. My heart ached as I learned about Dave and his brother Mark. I'm waiting patiently for Fractured Karma to come to Audible. Narrator, Jill Maglione did a fantastic job as she gave us her take on His Frozen Heart. I think she did a darn good job with the male voices and I didn't have any problems with being able to identify the character's who spoke throughout this story. She gave this story life as she put her spin on it. Jill held my attention right from the start to the very end. Jill had me engrossed and I didn't stop until it was finished. Overall, this story gets a perfect 5. rating from me. Loved it! I absolutely loved this story! It had danger, romance, suspense, humor, and love in it. I found myself staying up very late listening to this book and read it in one sitting! For awhile, I was actually gripping the arms of my chair from the suspense. I wanted to yell R U N !!! Candy Cane has been friends with Libby for most of her life. The girls did everything together and even Candy's parents called Libby their daughter too. After graduation, Candy's parents moved to New Mexico and the girls had to support themselves. One night in order to buy food, they played pool shark to the wrong guys. While they only won 400.00, one of the men was so mad, he put out a hit on them. From here, you will have to read the book to see what happens... The author, Nancy Straight did a fantastic job writing this story! I was so involved the entire book as the plot was that good. The danger and suspense was awesome. I am still nervous for the girls as I write this. The narrator, Jill Maglione was great too! With all her voices and accents, she was very entertaining.

Hogan Narrator: Laci Morgan Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 27 mins Language: English Release date: 03-06-15 Publisher: O'neal Publishing Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 11 votes Genres: Teens, Mysteries & Thrillers Publisher's Summary: A choice. A destiny discovered. With the Witness Protection program failing to keep Christy safe, she is sent to Belgium to hide in a spy school. While there, test scores reveal her true abilities. Once the terrorists back home are all caught, and the danger gone, will she ever go back to being an ordinary teenager - or is she destined for a dangerous new way of life? Discover her fate in this action-packed final installment of the heart-pounding Watched trilogy. Members Reviews: Enticing Awesome continuation of the watched trilogy by Hogan. As faster as it would've been reading the actual paperback book on my own, I very muched enjoyed hearing it read aloud. It have more character to the story. Teen Girl Finds Her Calling at Spy School Any additional comments? Created by Cindy Hogan is an adventurous YA novel that is well written, fast paced, and consistent throughout. The story focuses on 17-year-old Christy, who despite being in the FBI's witness protection program was tracked down and almost killed, so the FBI relocates her to Belgium. The majority of the story takes place here, inside a private spy school where most of its students started attending since they were 5 years old. Because of her brilliance and innate ability to know the right way to go, as well as when danger is near (I think of this as her 6th sense superpower), Christy quickly completes most of the curriculum and is assigned her first real mission. I listened to the Audible version of this story narrated by Laci Morgan who did an outstanding job. Laci portrayed Christy as a very likeable young lady surrounded by unbelievable events. Laci had great intonation and pace, keeping the story suspenseful throughout. She had differing voices for male and female characters, and expressed urgency when appropriate. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this audio book! Created is the third book in the Watched series. Although this is a stand alone, I think you'd have a better understanding of what's going on if you read or listened to Protected first (I still have not read the first book and it was very easy to understand the story line starting with book #2). Despite receiving a copy of this book in exchange for a review, I loved this book so much I listened to all 9 1/2 hours in only two days. Highly recommended! Hold on tight! They just keep getting better I couldn't stop listening. Non-stop action and adventure and the romance. Swoon. So glad Christy has found her way. I hope there will be more Christy books

The Butterfly Clues Audiobook by Kate Ellison

Title: The Butterfly Clues Author: Kate Ellison Narrator: Therese Plummer Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 21 mins Language: English Release date: 02-14-12 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 46 votes Genres: Teens, Mysteries & Thrillers Publisher's Summary: Penelope (Lo) Marin has always loved to collect beautiful things. Her dad's consulting job means she's grown up moving from one rundown city to the next, and she's learned to cope by collecting (sometimes even stealing) quirky trinkets and souvenirs in each new place - possessions that allow her to feel at least some semblance of home. But in the year since her brother Oren's death, Lo's hoarding has blossomed into a full-blown, potentially dangerous obsession. She discovers a beautiful, antique butterfly pendant during a routine scour at a weekend flea market and recognizes it as having been stolen from the home of a recently murdered girl known only as "Sapphire" - a girl just a few years older than Lo. As usual, when Lo begins to obsess over something, she can't get it out of her mind. As she attempts to piece together the mysterious "butterfly clues", with the unlikely help of a street artist named Flynt, Lo quickly finds herself caught up in a seedy, violent underworld much closer to home than she ever imagined - a world, as she'll ultimately discover, that could hold the key to her brother's tragic death. Critic Reviews: "A debut worth picking up. Stark and realistic." (RTBook Reviews) "An engaging mystery starring a teen girl with obsessive-compulsive disorder. A pleasing mix of realism, tension, intrigue and romance." (Kirkus Reviews) "In a strong, twisty thriller of a debut, Ellison builds tension effectively, creating credible portraits of both the decaying, violent streets of Neverland and the compulsions that make Lo such a complex and memorable heroine." (Publishers Weekly) Members Reviews: Enjoyable I enjoyed listening to this book. Slightly quirky, good plot. Well worth the time & money. Dull beginning, Predictable ending I thought the story was never going to get started. I almost quit before the story started to finally began to unfold.. All I have to say is if you listen to this story you better be ready to tap, tap, tap, banana. Trust me don't waste your credit or time. Review: "The Butterfly Clues" by Kate Ellison I've never been one for murder mysteries and whodunnits. Well, except for Midsommer Murders, and I think my enjoyment of that is more associative as it reminds me of pleasant Sunday evenings with my parents. So it's fairly surprising that I should enjoy a book which is basically a light murder mystery for a YA audience. Lo, the first person protagonist of The Butterfly Clues, really appealed to me. If you look at some of the reviews of this book around the internet, it seems like she's a character you either like or loathe. This is mostly because of her OCD. Lo has an obsession with the number 3 and its multiples. They are her "safe" numbers. Her illness has also resulted in her becoming a hoarder and a bit of a klepto to boot. Her illness also means she can never pass through any doorway without tapping three times and then saying "banana". She... has problems. It seems like a lot of readers found her annoying because of her constant counting and her repetitive, obsessive-compulsive nature. A lot of readers seemed to miss the point that Lo felt the same way! It was meant to be irksome, almost an inconvenience to the reader, because that allows us to empathise with her.

Losing Faith Audiobook by Denise Jaden

Title: Losing Faith Author: Denise Jaden Narrator: Becca Battoe Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 37 mins Language: English Release date: 05-02-13 Publisher: Denise Jaden Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 9 votes Genres: Teens, Mysteries & Thrillers Publisher's Summary: When Brie's sister, Faith, dies in a fall from a cliff, Brie's world falls apart. As she goes through the bizarre and devastating process of mourning the sister she never understood, Brie must also contend with increasingly distant parents, her boyfriend's betrayal, and her sudden outcast status at school. And once she's over the initial shock of Faith's death, Brie is encountering more questions than closure: Certain facts about the way Faith died just don't line up. She soon uncovers Faith's role in a dark and twisted religious cult - a cult that now wants Brie as a member. Members Reviews: Losing Faith... My last little review for 2010... Losing Faith could probably be best described as Realistic YA 'Fiction. It is the sad story of a young girl who gets caught up in a supposedly harmless youth group at her church. This involvement gets extreme and deadly. The heart of the story is this young girl's sister...Brie. She is determined to find out what really happened to her sister. She is facing this and the sadness and despair of her parents while trying to deal with her feelings about the loss of her sister. Brie is steadfast and determined to understand what happened to her sister and is relentless in her quest for the truth. Brie is not the best and kindest person before she loses her sister. As she works through the tumultuous aftermath of this tragedy everything in her life is forever changed. She loses old friends and gains a new friend in someone she would never have bothered with before. The book is not at all preachy but is just an awesome accounting of one of life's tragedies and how one young girl deals with it. It has lots and lots of teen angst, some dark gothic characters, young love...and a bit of a surprise ending...all in all a yummy little book. I sped through it sort of nonstop!!! Mysterious and Edgy This book was extremely well written and has an intriguing mystery that left me wondering what really happened until the final reveal. Brie is your typical self-involved teen until the night her super religious sister falls off a cliff. Others want to deem it a suicide, but Brie just can't believe that her sister would do that. She starts digging into her sisters last days and everything just becomes more and more confusing. Things also become more and more dangerous for Brie. As for characters, Brie was self-involved at the beginning, but while mourning her sister, and trying to get to the bottom of what really happened, she changes into a much more likable character. Faith and her friend Candace were the goody-goody, sweet religious type, but just good people that you just can't help but like. Amy and Dustin were the type of "friends" that make you think of the saying "with friends like these who needs enemies". Snotty and popular and the exact opposite of loyal. My favorite character, Tessa, who is the scary goth girl that everyone steers clear of unexpectedly becomes Brie's new best friend. She's tough as nails, but also loyal and has a really good heart. She cracked me up several times through the book. And last but not least Alis, he ends up being a great romantic interest for our MC. He's a home schooled boy whose a little quirky but so sweet and cute. I recommend this one to YA and adult fans alike.

But was it really suicide? Noah Snyder is a ghost. At least he thinks so. Only he's not sure how he died. He recruits the cute Paige to help him get to the bottom of the mystery so he can move on. Before he died, Noah was the captain of the boys swim team and popular at Dead Lake High School. He had also suffered from depression after losing his father when Noah was just a boy. Paige, who had initially believed she was dealing with an imposter Noah, is stunned to find out that he is a real ghost and that there were more than a few people who may have wanted him dead. Being attracted to a cute teen ghost is no small feat as Paige tries to adjust to life in a new town and help unravel the mystery of his death. In the process, she soon finds herself in danger, as someone wants to keep a deadly secret at all costs... Members Reviews: My pre-teen couldn't stop listening! What made the experience of listening to Teen Ghost at Dead Lake the most enjoyable? Great book! I also like to read/listen to books with her to engage in conversations about them. This book kept my attention. Great Teen/YA story. Would you consider the audio edition of Teen Ghost at Dead Lake to be better than the print version? I have not read the printed version so cannot comment honestly. Who was your favorite character and why? It has to be Paige.

This is something she is unwilling to believe at first, however eventually she has to accept that its true, he really is a ghost, and not only that but he actually used to live in her new home until he killed himself six months earlier. The problem is, Noah doesnt know how he died and needs to find answers. So she sets about helping him to discover who killed this seemingly popular boy, and how it happened. However, as she endeavours to discover the truth, she finds herself unintentionally placed in great danger. Have you listened to any of Pamela Lorences other performances before? How does this one compare? This is the first story I've heard read by Pamela Lorence however I thoroughly enjoyed her narration. Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? No but it was very enjoyable, Any additional comments?

Excellent reading! I really enjoy listening to this. It is read so well, with so much feeling. I recommend this to everyone who, like me, loves poetry.

Henderson Narrator: Emily Kleimo Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 25 mins Language: English Release date: 07-12-17 Publisher: Jennifer Henderson Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 7 votes Genres: Teens, Mysteries & Thrillers Publisher's Summary: Girl moves to new town. Girl meets Mr. Tall, Dark, and Handsome. Cue Happily Ever After. That's how the story goes, right? Except this is Lucy. The same Lucy whose stellar driving skills single-handedly wiped out both of her parents, leaving her with nothing but the suitcase in her hand and the screws in her skull. Not to mention that Mr. Tall, Dark, and Handsome - AKA Oliver - is just as annoyingly bossy as he is hot. According to Oliver, Lucy's not safe in her new hometown, but he refuses to say why. He just gives her some lame warning about not going out after dark, like that'll stop her. When several townspeople vanish, the lethargic community springs to life, fearful of the danger lurking among them. The problem is that Lucy's the last person to have seen any of the missing. Doesn't exactly qualify her for the Neighbor of the Year Award. Lucy's already given up on Happily Ever After, but now she has two choices left: find out what's happening in her new home, or become the next victim. Members Reviews: A great book with a great story! I just love this book. I couldn't put it down! It was very creative and well written. The narration was excellently done as well. It is a great read! Fun and Compelling What did you love best about In the Middle? How it kept my interest and I always wanted to hear more. It is a gripping and fun story What about Emily Kleimos performance did you like? She was perfect for the age group this book was targeted for Any additional comments? S.J. Henderson's books are wonderful and I read the softcover of "In the Middle" When I saw that it was available in audio I grabbed it and listened to it from beginning to end. A great story The great themes of life in a YA paranormal Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting? I did! Any additional comments? Death, love, regret and forgiveness: Jen Hendersons *In the Middle* tackles some of the weightiest topics in life, through the eyes of teenagers. Intersecting planes of reality and the reiteration of lives bring the advanced narrative techniques of contemporary literature into the domain of Young Adult fiction. Love between man and woman, parent and child, across the racial divide and even that of animal and human, are occasions for Hendersons delicate moral touch. Theres action, adventure and a sophisticated ending that leaves us wondering. Unique & Intriguing What made the experience of listening to In the Middle the most enjoyable? This was such a unique and interesting read. I didn't know anything about it heading into the novel, but I found myself pleasantly surprised by the twist and turns it took. Henderson did a nice job mixing the emotions that come with death, mistakes in our lives, and what might happen in the afterlife. It was both mysterious and intriguing, while also sprinkling in a dash of humor here and there. I won't give any spoilers away, but I recommend this book for a different and satisfying read. Didn't want to put it down Would you consider the audio edition of In the Middle to be better than the print version? I didn't read the print version, but did really enjoy the narrator. What did you like best about this story? I enjoyed the gradual reveal of plot details and the sweet romance.

Title: The Dare Author: Hannah Jayne Narrator: Cassandra Morris Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 48 mins Language: English Release date: 07-01-14 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 3 of 5 out of 6 votes Genres: Teens, Mysteries & Thrillers Publisher's Summary: She made the dare. Now she can't face the truth. Brynna and Erica were friends, best friends. They did everything together, until the night they jumped off the pier at Harding Beach...and only Brynna made it back. A year later, Brynna is still picking up the pieces. She's in a new school with new friends, but she can't shake the demons of her past. Then a Twitter post from "EricaNShaw" pops up in Brynna's feed and a chilling voice mail is left on her phone. Someone isn't ready to let go of what happened. Brynna barely survived losing Erica. She doubts she'll survive Erica's return. Members Reviews: Intresting This is not my usual type of audio book. I have other books by this author and enjoyed them. I decided to give this one a listen. The plot and characters develop well. The ending was a let down. There is the hint that the death of Erica was influenced by bad judgement due to alcohol. Then a minor character shows up. His behavior is altered from previous story dialog. The ending is left kinda open. You are told a probable but not certain end for him. The supporting characters just show up at the climax. Their reason for showing up is weak. The author should have said a little more about how Brynna was secured by the villain. How Brynna got loose is not possible under normal circumstances. It takes a big stretch of the imagination to agree with that. What I enjoyed was the write up for a teenager who has a sudden traumatic experience. Brynna is trying to work through her guilt for living, after turning too and overcoming drugs and alcohol. Her certain knowledge of the need to stay clean everyday. Brynna has difficulties with her need for alcohol. Brynna is aware of the need to rebuild her self. She has the need to block out the past. She tries to get herself together. Then there is her parent whom she labels as a functioning alcoholic. This reflects real life. Many teenage alcoholics has an alcoholic relative. Often that relative is a parent. There is the constant temptation for booze and/or drugs for life. Brynna's parents are supportive and do what they think is best.

Marti Lewis was Barrys best friend, and she knows that he was murdered. She just cant get anyone to believe her. The evidence is clear to Marti.

The police found the gun in his right hand, but he was left-handed. Everyone is refusing to accept the obvious. Now Marti is being followed. The murderer is free to strike again, and she could be the next on his list. This popular four-time Edgar Award-winning author is famous for plots that build inexorably to hair-raising conclusions.

Feisty seventeen-year-old Lilith Lane has a dreamy boyfriend, a wicked tongue, and a talent for solving mysteries. When her little sister, Beth, goes missing, that talent is put to the ultimate test. And when Lilith's only lead is a reality-bending rooftop portal to an alternate universe, she's willing to make the leap. Aided by local mad scientist Dr. Hammer, Lilith searches for clues in a parallel version of her hometown, Mirabilis, racing against the clock to rescue her sister from whoever snatched her. Among the suspects: her adulterous father, a wacked-out guidance counselor, and a scheming beauty queen. To complicate matters, when Lilith zaps into the alternate reality, she finds that she's not quite herself, and if she stays too long, she might not make it back. But maybe that wouldn't really be such a bad thing.... Members Reviews: Entertaining with a realistic feel for the narrator I had read and liked the first episode of another Plympton-publisher Kindle Serial,Hacker Mom. After I posted a review of it, I got an email from Plympton co-founder Jennifer 8. Lee, thanking me and suggesting I check out another of their titles. As a 50s male, a paranormal story about a teenage girl is not my usual "cup of tea", though I wonder if that's true since I adored James Schmitz' stories about psi-wieldingTelzey Amberdon, but since Jennifer asked so nicely I figured I'd give it a "fair go". The first thing I was struck by was how authentic the "voice" of Lilith felt. It really read as I imagined a 17-year-old girl might write, rather than what an adult pretending to be a 17-year-old might. The story so far introduces the situation well and has its own share of intrigue and adventure, but I am looking forward to seeing what's next. I am happy to see Plympton (and Amazon) resurrecting the notion of the serial for e-books. I regularly read serials in science fiction magazines, but the form has generally disappeared from mainstream publishing. I liked the concept so much that I became a backer of Plympton's project on Kickstarter and will definitely check out more in this series. September 23, 2012 I've now read Episode 2 and realized that this is not a "paranormal" story but rather straight-on science fiction. Dr. Hammer, whom Lilith calls her "personal mad scientist", created a mechanism that allows jumping (literally) between two worlds. Are there more than two? At this point in the story, that is not known. Lilith finds that her life in the "other Earth" has diverged quite a lot from what she knows, and she now needs to solve a mystery for both worlds! I'm very much enjoying this and am glad that it isn't too long between episodes! It left a bad taste in my head I wish I hadn't read this. It left a bad taste in my head. I'm still trying to work out the logic, even thought it's obvious the novel contradicted its own logic. Questions weren't answered. The title is misleading - Lilith doesn't jump enough alternate universes to warrant the word "many" in the title. This isn't a fun multiverse romp, and Lilith sees multiple versions of her family and friends similarly to how Rick does in Rick and Morty, but without the long history to justify it. It also demonizes child abuse victims?? Just.

She discovers that if she can't help the FBI, who want to protect her, it will cost her and her new friends their lives. Members Reviews: Intriquing Storyline If you could sum up Watched: Murder Was Just the Beginning in three words, what would they be? Suspenseful, intriguing, heart pounding What does Cheri Julander bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book? Cheri did a wonderful job narrating the book. She really heightened the suspenseful areas of the book for me. Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you? One of the most intense parts of the book was when Christy and Jeremy were running for their lives through the woods. I could feel the emotion and my heart was pounding. Any additional comments? This was my introduction to Cindy Hogan and I cannot wait to listen to additional books in these series. Good book If you could sum up Watched: Murder Was Just the Beginning in three words, what would they be? Fun kid book What other book might you compare Watched: Murder Was Just the Beginning to and why? Not sure Which character as performed by Cheri Julander was your favorite? I liked all the characters If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be? What would you do if you saw a murder? Any additional comments?

With a class trip to Washington DC a awkward Christy makes some friends and with them makes bad and good choices. She finds deadly enemies and they have an adventure of a fantastic time. This book is a good read/listen and I recommend it to you to read. Loved it Read the book and loved it. The reader was fan2. Her voice was very soothing.

Watched by Cindy Hogan is an excellent story of a teen girl, Christy, who is a brainiac 10th grader who goes on a high school trip to Washington, D.C. where she witnesses the murder of a senator's aide. It is well written, fast paced, and consistent throughout. Simply put, I thoroughly enjoyed listening to the Audible version of this audio book. It is edge-of-your-seat throughout and I highly recommend it.

Being there puts her at risk of bumping into Hallie, her former best friend (that is, before Gemma ruined her life). But people dont hold grudges forever. Do they? Gemma intends on making amends, but a small case of mistaken identity causes the people she knew years ago - including Hallie and her dreamy brother Josh - to believe shes someone else. As though the summer wasnt complicated enough already. Can Gemma keep up the charade? Or will she be found out by the very people shes been hiding from? Members Reviews: Needs a new narrator While the story was very cute, the narrator ruined it for me. Her constant swallowing while reading made listening to the story unbearable. I listen to a lot of audible books, and have never heard a narrator swallow loudly throughout the story. With a different narrator, this book would be much better. Drags a bit. This book doesn't get good until the end. It feels like it's written for teenagers and can drag on at times. It is funny though.

Two brothers. One love triangle. Sometimes love is meant to be. But sometimes... love is the death of you. 17-year-old Scarlet has just died. Only, dying isn't unusual for a girl under a centuries old curse that left her semi-immortal. This time, though, she comes back to her current life instead of awaking in a new one, and she realizes her curse is changing. With the help of the immortal Archer brothers, Scarlet tries to piece together her life and break the curse before her impending death comes again. Members Reviews: Fun paranormal series Love that survives five centuries is two thumbs up in my book. Scarlet is cursed along with twin immortal brothers that she happens to be in an epic love triangle with. Tristan and Sebastian both love Scarlet but only one of them is her true love but she can't remember which one it is. The brothers have all of their memories of all of Scarlet's past lives but they won't let her in on the secret ( bad boys...) Scarlet slowly starts having flash backs of past lives until the end of the book she remembers everything. Love triangle, immortals, evil witches and awesome banter. I like this series a lot, being a mom it is weird listening about a hot immortal guy with the same name as your son, but whatever... it happens. I only have minor complaint, like the narrator, she wasn't horrible, but she wasn't great either...AND Scarlet's best friend Heather embodies the stereo typically teenage blonde a little too well...and sometimes I find myself wanting to break my ipod every time she says "OMG"...ugh....enough with the OMG's! Wonderful Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not? I prefer to say that I have a interesting time listening this book. I enjoyed myself. The sequence is indendiary. What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!) At first I didn't like, but I needed to listening the last 3 chapters again, and I thought the ending give us a link to read the third book, and discover what will happen with everybody. What aspect of Carla Caprettos performance would you have changed? Nothing, I liked her. Did Awry inspire you to do anything? To be honest, no. But I'm anxious to listening the last book. Any additional comments? The Archers of Avalon is a wonderful series. Very simple, but great. Like I said, I enjoyed listening the book, and I'd recommend to my friends as a soft listening.

Not until the night a ferocious, otherworldly storm rips through Manhattan, trapping Mason and her teammates inside the school. Mason is besieged by nightmarish creatures more terrifying than the thunder and lightning as the raging tempest also brings a dangerous stranger into her life: a young man who remembers nothing but his name - the Fennrys Wolf. His arrival tears Mason's world apart, even as she feels an undeniable connection to him. Together, they seek to unravel the secrets of Fenn's identity as strange and supernatural forces gather around them. When they discover Mason's family - with its dark allegiance to ancient Norse gods - is at the heart of the mystery, Fennrys and Mason are suddenly faced with a terrifying future. Set against the gritty, shadowed back-drop of New York City, this first novel in award-winning author Lesley Livingston's epic Starling Saga is an intoxicating blend of sweeping romance and pulse-pounding action. Members Reviews: Disappointed The audible story was actually interesting and fine to listen to and I even found myself rooting for the heroine. However the central character in this novel, Starling, is a coward who is gripped by fear. There are many opportunities in this story for her to get a grip on her life but she doesn't. She hurts a lot of people along the way, even leaving a close friend scared because of her incompetence. The book ends with her being exactly where she belongs! It's probably the only redeeming high point in this book! The Starling Saga It was great and suspenseful. I love that the lead girl was not wishy washy on her choices and when it came down to being strong she was and loved Heather. Can't wait for the next title in this series! If you could sum up Starling in three words, what would they be? Complex and surprising. What was one of the most memorable moments of Starling? The scene where Fenn dicovers his armory and likens himself to a ninja:) After reading the previous series (Wonder Strange), I really love this new redeemed Fennrys. Which character as performed by Lesley Livingston was your favorite? Heather - because she seems to be one of the biggest surprises and there is serious potential in her character. Also really like how Lesley portrays her through the reading. Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting? yes! Any additional comments? Can't wait till the next book in this series comes out. If Lesley will be reading that one too, I will be delighted to purchase that audiobook as well.

But bloodlines can produce surprises, like an incredible ability to heal. Then there's Michael Alexander, the new guy in school, who is impossibly gorgeous... and captivated by her. Somewhere in the back of her mind, she can hear the sound of pages turning, and another, older story being written. It is the story of an ancient family, of great warriors, of the Sword of Light, and the struggle against an evil so terrible, so far-reaching, that it threatens everything. Airel knew change would be an inevitable part of life. But can she hold on when murder and darkness begin to close in and take away everything she loves? Will she have what it takes when the truth is finally revealed? Members Reviews: It could have been so good The back story was awesome. The present story line was torturer. It would have need nice if Airel wasn't such a ding bat. worst book ever struggled through the entire book. really boring, wish I could get my money back. if i want to read a book that was in B.C time.. I would have bought one. I love this book when I started reading this book I had no idea the twist that came I loved it I read it again and order the next book to bad it's not in audio format yet I hope it comes soon and the others in the series. Better than expected Would you listen to Airel again? Why? Probably not, but I have so many books I haven't listened to yet it's vary unlikely I'd listen to vary many of my books more than once. What other book might you compare Airel to and why? Twilight Which scene was your favorite? Sorry no spoilers here Any additional comments? At first the book comes across as another teen girl angst book. I.E. Twilight. But it gets away from that to some degree and has some unique scenes. I was surprised that even though the book inched an excerpt from the next book it is the only one of the series on audible. Seeing as the book was released in 2012 I find it surprising the second book didn't get written or released if it was. You have to get past the goofy beginning.... Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not? I suppose. The story drew me in (after I got past the extreme eye-rolling during the first part of the book). The main character is so... pre-teen? in her behavior that I just couldn't relate at all. I don't remember ever behaving in such an immature matter toward boys. It's just not very believeable. But I suppose the author was attempting to point out (very quickly, I might add... another point to struggle with) that Airel had some growing up to do and she had to grow up quickly. If that wasn't the authors point, then I suppose he may not know much about young women (a very plausible possibility). Still, once I got past that part of the book, the overall story was good. If youve listened to books by Aaron Patterson before, how does this one compare? never have in the past What about Phil Gigantes performance did you like? LOVE Phil Gigante... who has a wonderfully melodic voice. In fact, I found this book mainly because I was looking for books narrated by Phil Gigante :) Could you see Airel being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be? Perhaps a Lifetime or Hallmark mini-series.

She is becoming sensitive to light, able to read peoples' thoughts, and is faster and stronger than she's ever been. She doesn't understand what's happening to her, and tries to ignore it. But she can only dismiss it for so long. Caitlin Paine, her mom, knows too well what's happening to her daughter. She underwent the same transformation to vampire once, centuries ago. But now, in the present day, as a mere human, she has no memory of it. All she has is the journal she found in the attic - her mysterious vampire journal - telling of her exploits in another time and place, and of the vampire race being eradicated. But was there one exception to the rule? Could it be that Scarlet, her daughter, is the last remaining vampire on earth? As Scarlet tries to fight who she's becoming, she also tries to fight her intense feelings for Blake, a boy in her grade who she has a crush on. She can't tell, though, if he's into her, and with the big Halloween dance just days away, the pressure is on. She would do anything for Blake to ask her. But Vivian, the meanest of the popular girls, is also on Blake's radar, and she'll do anything to make Blake hers - and to make Scarlet's life a living hell. Luckily Scarlet has her own clique of friends to back her up, including her best friends Maria and Jasmin. They, too, have guy troubles - but it isn't until Sage appears, the mysterious new boy, that her friends become obsessed. Scarlet finds herself attracted to him, too - and is surprised when it is her, of all the girls in the school, that he pays attention to. But her mind is set on Blake, at least for now, and she continues to hope he'll ask her to the dance. Just when it seems that Scarlet has what she wants, her body changes. Soon it may be impossible for her to be near her fellow humans. Soon, she may have to choose between her desire to live and her desire for love. Members Reviews: Horrible Performance What would have made Resurrected better? Unfortunately I couldn't get past performance of Emily Gittleman to find out anything about the book. She was instantly grating and it seemed like she had never read anything aloud before. I couldn't make it past 7 minutes. How could the performance have been better? Not have Emily Gittleman doing the narration.

Title: Hush, Hush Author: Becca Fitzpatrick Narrator: Caitlin Greer Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 1 min Language: English Release date: 09-30-10 Publisher: Simon & Schuster UK Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 53 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: A sacred oath, a fallen angel, a forbidden love... This darkly romantic story features our heroine, Nora Grey, a seemingly normal teenage girl with her own shadowy connection to the Nephilim, and a super-alluring bad boy, Patch, now her deskmate in biology class. Together they find themselves at the centre of a centuries-old feud between a fallen angel and a Nephilim. Forced to sit next to Patch in science class, Nora attempts to resist his flirting, though she gradually falls for him against her better judgment. Meanwhile creepy things are going on with a mysterious stalker following her car, breaking into her house, and attacking her best friend, Vi. Nora suspects Patch, but there are other suspects too - not least a new boy who has transferred from a different college after being wrongly accused of murdering his girlfriend. And he seems to have taken a shine to Nora.... Love certainly is dangerous. And someone is going to have to make the ultimate sacrifice for it. Members Reviews: Really enjoyed this book! I'm a big series fan. Overall the story is great! It keep me wanting more. I was finished with the book in three days. It had a lot of mystery and suspense to it other than just your typical love story. The only thing that bothered me was the main character seemed to be very naïve about things and put herself in situations most people wouldn't, which bothered me a little. On the other hand because she was so naïve and put herself in those situations it made the story more dangerous and suspenseful. So overall the story was really good and definitely made you want to keep reading! Great Plot, Writing Not So Much ... What did you like best about Hush, Hush? What did you like least? I liked Patch's character (silly name, though) and I have no affection for the main character, Whatshername - maybe I no longer understand teenagers, but I remember being much more interesting at that age. How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable? I would have upped the pace of the story quite a bit, as well as created a more engaging ecosystem - the town where story is set, surrounding geography, community colour - for the characters to live in. Coming off of the Shiver series, this aspect of the book was lacking. What didnt you like about Caitlin Greers performance? Forgettable. Was Hush, Hush worth the listening time? The jury's still out. Given the reviews I'll give the series one more book before deciding if I'll warm to it. Room for improvement I have to say that I was a little disappointed with this one. After reading Cassandra Clares books, I was hoping for something of a similar theme when I read mentions of the Nephlym. Although you get the teenage lust, girl attracted to the bad boy, and all that stuff, I found the book jumpy, not very well thought out and a bit rushed in some places, where Becca could have had a bit of fun with the characters, and gone into a bit more detail in the scenes. To me, it felt like it was written by a teenager or young person - someone who hasn't had a lot of life experience and lacks the knowledge to create a story that will really capture the reader's imagination. Overall, 3 stars. Hopefully Becca's writing will only get better. Tolerably entertaining This is very much a YA book.

Perhaps hardest of all, her decision to open a nightclub with her old nemesis Charles Delacroix has cost Anya her relationship with Win. Still, it is Anya's nature to soldier on. She puts the loss of Win behind her and focuses on her work. Against the odds, the nightclub becomes an enormous success, and Anya feels like she is on her way and that nothing will ever go wrong for her again. But after a terrible misjudgment leaves Anya fighting for her life, she is forced to reckon with her choices and to let people help her for the first time in her life. In the Age of Love and Chocolate is the story of growing up and learning what love really is. It showcases the best of Gabrielle Zevin's writing for young adults: The intricate characterization of Memoirs of a Teenage Amnesiac and the big-heartedness of Elsewhere. It will make you remember why you loved her writing in the first place. Members Reviews: Good Start, Soft Ending After the high of the previous book, I was really looking forward to reading the third of this series wanting to see what steps Anya would take next. I like the idea of tackling social justice issues head on and Anya does just that. The romantic relationships with Anya were a bit too simplistic and lacked heat in this book. In the end, the book kind of wrapped up with a slow sizzle and left readers turning the next few end pages looking for a punch, cliff hanger, or profound resolution. Nope just a list of other books to purchase. A perfect end to a great series. I will really miss Win and Anya!! This is the last book in the Birthright series, featuring harsh yet awesome Anya Balanchine. Through the first two books, she has lost a lot of her family due to her life in organized crime (her family runs in the black market chocolate business) and has fallen in love with a boy who she has no business loving. She been arrested, on the run, been proposed to. She has been thrown into the family business whether she likes it or not. Now, we are at the end, and Anya is going to be making the toughest decisions so far. This is more of an overview of the entire series so bear with me. While All These Things Iâve Done started out slow, the series quickly picked up speed and by the end of the first book, I was pretty hooked. Yes, I was in love with Win. Because who wouldnât be? And yes, I loved Anya. She frustrated me, making huge mistakes and bad choices. Her selfishness was severe and harsh, her judgement strong especially to those she claimed to love. I loved her drive and restlessness, and how sometimes not everyone can understand you and you have to leave some people behind. She makes some bad choices, ones that she regrets and by the third book, she is so frail and fragile, itâs a wonder itâs the same character. This is when I fell in love with Anya again- right here, vulnerable and unsure of herself. To be broken and brought down so low, and to find a way to rise up again.

Cooney Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 14 mins Language: English Release date: 08-28-17 Publisher: Tantor Audio Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 4 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: Maine-bred, independent Rilla Brae is no stranger to the deep. She knows the rhythms of hard work and harder seas. But when she experiences the sudden death of her father, the veil between the living and the dead blurs, and she begins to be haunted by a girl on a nearby uninhabited island. The girl floats a song over the waves, and it is as beautiful as it is terrifying. Familiar and distant. Then Rilla meets Sam, a University of Southern Maine archeology student tasked with excavating the very island where the ghostly girl has appeared. Sam sifts the earth looking for the cultural remains of an island people who were forcibly evicted by the state nearly a hundred years ago. Sam tells Rilla the island has a history no locals talk about - if they know about it at all - due to the shame the events brought to the working waterfront community. All Rilla knows for sure is that the island has always been there - an eerie presence anchored in the stormy sea. Now Sam's work and the ghostly girl's song lure Rilla to the island's shores. As Rilla helps Sam to unearth the island's many secrets, Rilla's visions grow - until the two discover a tragedy kept silent for years. And it's a tragedy that has everything to do with Rilla's past. Members Reviews: So good! OMG, this book! I have to admit that I'm only half-way through it, but I couldn't wait to recommend The Rattled Bones. Since I opened it two days ago, "just to read the first couple of pages," I haven't been able to put it down. The history is intriguing, the characters and the Maine coast are enchanting, and the ghostly bits add just the right about of mystery and suspense. You can feel the melancholy of Rilla's loss of her parents in sync with the tide of the water people and the lost souls of Malaga. This is balanced so well with Gram's healthy garden and Rilla's bright opportunities for her future. We need more sassy, strong, determined feminine figures like Rilla in YA fiction! A special salute to the fisherWOmen that are breaking stereotypes and making way for the next generation. Beautiful! The Rattled Bones is a story that is going to stay with me for quite some time. Filled with mystery, historical fiction, suspense and a captivating ghost story. At times both heartbreaking and uplifting. I fell so in love with this story. S.M. Parker is a true story teller and I GREATLY look forward to reading more from this author! Gorgeous Prose, Beautiful Story This book transported me to the coast of Maine, to a hauntingly beautiful place where traditions are as pervasive as salt in the air. As the novel unfolds, Rilla Brae, the strong, yet vulnerable main character, learns to trust. She trusts her gut. She trusts the new guy she meets. She trusts the people she loves, even if they're no longer with her. And most of all, she trusts the deeply heartbreaking story chasing her across the sea on the wings of a bee. I loved this book. The characters were layered and authentic. The setting was breathtaking. The eerie, tragic paranormal parts mixed with real history made me believe in ghosts. I loved every page, every gorgeous image. (Suggestion: Read this under a blanket with a warm drink and (if possible) a snuggly pet). Bravo, S.M. Parker! If you love a good mystery and historical fiction! I listened to The Rattled Bones on audiobook and the story was beautiful and creepy.

Title: Seven Days of You Author: Cecilia Vinesse Narrator: Madeline Rose Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 21 mins Language: English Release date: 03-07-17 Publisher: Hachette Audio Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: A smart and swoony debut novel for fans for Stephanie Perkins and Jenny Han. Sophia Wachowski has seven days left in Tokyo before she moves back to the States for her senior year of high school. Seven days to say good-bye to the electric city she's called home for years, to eat at every ramen shop she can find, to sing endless karaoke with her wild best friend, and to finally tell her crush she's in love with him. Seven perfect days....until Jamie Foster-Collins moves back to Japan and ruins everything. Three years ago Jamie left for boarding school in the States, but not before he crushed Sophia's heart, and she hasn't spoken to him since. Now the last thing she wants is for him to steal her leaving thunder with his stupid arriving thunder. But hating Jamie is a lot harder than it used to be. For starters, he's a lot less awkward than she remembers...and a lot cuter. And as the relationships she thought were stable begin to explode around her, Jamie is the one person left for her to lean on. Sophia is forced to admit she may have misjudged Jamie, but can their seven short days of Tokyo adventures end in anything but good-bye? A funny and poignant debut novel filled with first kisses and second chances. Critic Reviews: "Seven Days of You is a deliciously fizzy, neon-bright romance: a swoony tangle of past and future, love and friendship, and what exactly it means to be home." (Katie Cotugno, New York Times best-selling author of 99 Days) "This dazzling and genuinely romantic story shows just how much your life can change in the course of a single week." (Jennifer E. Smith, author of The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight) "This highly readable novel about finding home and discovering oneself will have fans of Stephanie Perkins's Anna and the French Kiss swooning." (School Library Journal) Members Reviews: Fun and heartfelt. What an absolute treat! A loving portrait of the heartbreak, fickleness, joy, pettiness, pain, and general exuberance of the teenage-girl experience. It was also enjoyable seeing American teenage tropes displaced into a Tokyo setting -- of course even across the world, these kids are sitting around a playground eating (Japanese) junk food. Some things are universal. Very nice read - Tokyo Johnny Fantastic story about living abroad that faithfully captures the dynamic of living in Tokyo. The novel becomes increasingly more tightly wound as the protagonist's time in Tokyo ticks to zero. A fun taste of Tokyo! This book is a super cute read that tugs at your heartstrings and digs into some deeper issues without getting too heavy. It features friendships and family relationships and romance all set against the backdrop of Tokyo. What Fed My Addiction: Japan! Like I said, Iâm fascinated, so I kind of loved this little peek into an ex-patâs life in Japan. We got seven days and nights of karaoke, train rides, Japanese food, and moreâit was a fun glimpse at life in Tokyo. I also enjoyed learning a bit about how the school system works for foreigners in Japan and how an ex pat teenagerâs life might look (and since Vinesse actually was one, I feel like we probably got a pretty realistic POV). I pretty much loved the setting for this book! Evolving friendships. Sophia feels like she knows where she stands with her two best friends.

That's just their first date. Jack has been getting on his parents' nerves for some time. Bad enough he's a rock musician, has crappy grades, and hangs out with his "loser" friends. But Jack's ability to predict the future - well, that just annoys the hell out of them. Jack's classmate, Lauren, is said to have unique abilities too. The town still talks about when she kept badgering her mother about the money in their wall. For the longest time, Lauren's mother didn't listen. Finally, she did and Lauren's mother hasn't had to work since. Jack would really like to connect with Lauren but can't figure out how. She's never looked at him twice. But when he experiences a mystifying event involving visions, voices, and spectral visits, Jack figures there's only one person to help him understand who's calling out to him and why. Before long, Jack and Lauren are off on a road trip of discovery that could provide answers to a mystery left unsolved for 20 years. More importantly, they might even unravel the greatest mystery of all - how every so often someone will accept you for who you are. Members Reviews: Great book! So excited that it came out in audio! What did you love best about Streetlights Like Fireworks? The story grabs you from the beginning. It is unique in that there are not so many books out there with a psychic twist.

Overall very enjoyable! Journey with your heart and sense of adventure If you could sum up Streetlights Like Fireworks in three words, what would they be? Touching, nostalgic, and fun.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting? Yeah. The story really drew me in and I wanted to keep listening. Any additional comments? Rock and roll, the thrill of a new romantic relationship, the mystery of a deep connection that MUST be explored, and a road trip to cool city after cool city.

From the days when the boys were just a YouTube band trying to gain fans up through their recent lockdown, Darby's channel - Darby's Daily Dose of Drama - was the "go to" spot for all things Spaceships Around Saturn. Until now, she's been trusted by most and envied by few, but her meet up with SAS girlfriend Chloe Branson shakes Darby's world. She learns quickly that when you're with the band, everything isn't always red carpets and music videos. And the closer she gets to her SAS crush Tate Kingsley, the closer she comes to losing her Saturnite status forever. Members Reviews: I love them and the world that they are in So I need to get off my Spaceships Around Saturn cloud. I love them and the world that they are in. I could keep reading about them forever!! Darby is a 16 year old girl who runs a channel that showcases her favorite band. She hopes one day that she will get to meet them because of it, but no matter what she is a Saturnite for life! Her whole life changes the day Chloe Branson shows up on her front porch...the question is, can she handle the changes? Darby was a character that was okay, but I didn't really like her most of the time. She was immature for most of it complaining and being jealous of everyone instead of just enjoying what is finally happening to her. Heck, she gets to meet Tate, the guy she can't stop thinking about. You would think she would be happy, but her actions showed otherwise most of the time. With that though, I didn't hate her, she grew on me towards the end, and I know most of it is because she is young. I still loved following her as well as the glimpses of the Branson sisters and the rest of the band. I truly read this book to get any more info on them as I could! I don't care if I have to follow through Darby's head or anyone elses, I got more of SAS! Tate is such a sweetheart, I always thought he was okay in American Girl on Saturn, but you get to know him a lot better in this book. He was so sweet and went out of his way for Darby. It was so dang cute!! I also have to say seeing Chloe and Aralie around the band a lot makes me happy. I worried after the first book if they wouldn't get to see them much, but they seem to follow the band around where ever they go. Jules and Aralie seem so happy and it was nice to see that from them since they were pretty secretive in the first book! I am also a Chloe and Milo fan! Very much so, to see them together makes me super happy. I hope the tension between something big happening to Chloe ends up all working out in the end, I would be super sad to see them split! The story mainly follows Darby, where ever that means she is. Most of it is at home, but it is also at venues following Tate around. There is so much crazy that happens in the book you feel bad for her at times, she does have bad luck but it all pays out in the end :) I love seeing that if you love something long and hard enough, it will eventually come to you, even when you don't believe it will. I got the feeling to never give up on yourself or your dreams, no matter what they are. I love the fuzzy feelings I get with all Nikki's books.

Title: The Last True Love Story Author: Brendan Kiely Narrator: Kirby Heyborne Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 27 mins Language: English Release date: 02-14-17 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 2 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: From the critically acclaimed author of The Gospel of Winter and the coauthor of All American Boys comes a cool, contemplative spin on hot summer nights and the classic teen love story as two teens embark on a cross-country journey of the heart and soul. The point of living is learning how to love. That's what Gpa says. To Hendrix and Corrina, both 17 but otherwise alike only in their loneliness, that sounds like another line from a pop song that tries to promise kids that life doesn't actually suck. Okay, so: love. Sure. The thing about Corrina - her adoptive parents are suffocating, trying to mold her into someone acceptable, predictable, like them. She's a musician, itching for any chance to escape, become the person she really wants to be. Whoever that is. And Hendrix, he's cool. Kind of a poet. But also kind of lost. His dad is dead, and his mom is married to her job. Gpa is his only real family, but he's fading fast from Alzheimer's. Looking for any way to help the man who raised him, Hendrix has made Gpa an impossible promise - that he'll get him back east to the hill where he first kissed his wife, before his illness wipes away all memory of her. One hot July night, Hendrix and Corrina decide to risk everything. They steal a car, spring Gpa from his assisted living facility, stuff Old Humper the dog into the backseat, and take off on a cross-country odyssey from LA to NY. With their parents, Gpa's doctors, and the police all hot on their heels, Hendrix and Corrina set off to discover for themselves if what Gpa says is true - that the only stories that last are love stories. Members Reviews: A True Love Story I'm a huge fan of young adult literature. 4 out of 5 books that I read are written for younger audiences, but honestly, they're my favorite books to read, perhaps because so many of them really touch on real life issues. The Last True Love Story is a story about just that: love. But it's not the story you might expect. Yes, a young romance does blossom between Teddy (Hendrix) and Corrina. But to me, the true love story is the one that exists between Teddy and his ailing grandfather, Gpa, and Gpa and his late wife. Anyone who has known and loved someone diagnosed with Alzheimer's knows what a devastating and cruel disease it can be. It steals everything most precious to the individual; memories, recognition, a sense of awareness. And it steals the person away from his or her loved ones. In The Last True Love Story, Teddy breaks Gpa out of his assisted living facility to embark on a cross-country road trip with Corrina in an attempt to help Gpa relive his memories of Gma one last time. This is a moving and deeply personal book, one that fans of young adult literature and I think particularly fans of John Green, will enjoy and appreciate. What a beautiful story of love across the generations What a beautiful story of love across the generations! Kiely deftly captures the complexities of love from various perspectives in life in prose that is both elegant and accessible. The three main characters, the teenagers Hendrix and Corrina and the grandfather GPA, are all well-developed as the novel moves towards a satisfying conclusion.

But when his swooning face is captured on camera along with an out-of-context sexual comment, his words go viral. Elijah sets out to apologize, and, surprisingly, she forgives him for his unthinking comment. They hit it off right away, and Kristen believes she's finally found a boy who understands her. But strangers online are threatening Elijah's special needs sister, and Kristen's father wants Elijah gone. Can their relationship survive these difficulties? Members Reviews: I loved this book - very relevant! Wow! I loved this book!! As always Patty writes with such amazing detail. I felt like I was right there with Kristen and Elijah, felt what they were going through. Congrats to Patty for writing yet another very now and relevant book. You should definitely read this book! Review is also on Smada's Book Smack blog Elijah wants his band to succeed, and is willing to do anything to get them the recognition that he feels they deserve, even if it means playing tamed down music at the county fair for exposure. Kristen has her summer figured out, but when she is rejected from the Arts program she auditioned for she is crushed, but goes to perform in her school's performance because the show must go on. When Elijah sees Kristen perform, he knows that she is just what his band needs to step up their game. The hard part will be to convince his band-mates and Kristen the same... And to keep his feelings out of the mix. I have been so lucky in the books that I have tackled recently because they have all been really enjoyable reads, making me so sad to put one down for fear the next can't live up to the high expectations I currently have. Well, this book was love for me. I had anticipated to like the story, pretty much due to the music aspect and the push-pull relationship hinted at in the synopsis, but I was caught off guard by the love I felt while reading this story. I was swept up by everything that was this book: the banter, the emotional turmoil the characters deal with, the family bonds, the angst, the pull of romantic love, the disappointment of failure, the humor of the battle of the sexes, the high of performing, the hurt others can cause, and the twitter battle and reality of harmful social media. I felt so many emotions while reading, and was on the verge of tears a few times without even being aware they were coming until my chest was tight with emotion. You want feels? Then you have come to the right place. The best part of the story was how Patty mixed the flair and flamboyant Broadway style with the dark gritty world of Heavy Metal. As a side note, I don't think the cover did the book justice, don't get me wrong it's an ok cover, but I feel like the story was so much more than what the cover seems. âThis story was about family, relationships in general and the big factor that ties them all together- Music. âThe things that stood out to me the most was Elijah's relationship with his special needs sister Anna and Kristen's grandmother Etta. Elijah loves his sister, regardless of how difficult she can be and he is willing to bend over backward to make her happy, which is uncommon for a teen, who are usually so focused on themselves at that age.

(VOYA) Members Reviews: Just OK It was OK. But not at all what I've expected from reading the summary of the book. Exploration leaves answers to reader An interesting exploration of girls' attachments, affection, and sexuality that doesn't spoonfeed answers, but allows their contemplation and possibility. pretty good. Would you listen to Kissing Kate again? Why? Perhaps, it was entertaining to listen to in the car, but I don't feel the need to listen to it again right away though. I enjoyed the plot and performance. Slow Really should be in the yound adult series. Kissing Kate A semi-believable story of teenage confusion. Believable to those who have never been through such a phase, but only semi-relatable to someone who hasn't. Also, a moderatly dissapointing ending.

She is taken aback when she has to guide the new transfer student, Mateo, around the school. Mateo is nothing like she expected and everything that she believed wasn't possible. Can she fight the urge to get closer to him, or will their connection bring down the house of cards? Members Reviews: An intriguing page turner! Such a good read that I couldn't put it down, and read it in one day! Very intriguing and the author seemed to know when and how much information to give you to keep you reading... And wondering what and where the story itself was going. Loved every bit of the story and can't wait to read more! wonderful writing. Hats off to the author An absolutely fanastic book, could not put it down, wonderful writing. Hats off to the author. I now have to read the author's other books.. Lots of repetitive mundane and boring conversations, actions I didn't even finish this book. I thought the plot was confusing, lots of unanswered questions, WITH NO ANSWERS! Lots of repetitive mundane and boring conversations, actions, it was pretty awful. I basically just started scanning the pages hoping that the book would pick up at some point and SOMETHING would happen, but nothing did. ugh. It just didn't do it for me. A lot of things were left unexplained. It was a little on the boring side. I always finish books even if I don't necessarily like them, I had force myself to finish this one. Cool, Entertaining, Mysterious and Suspenseful I took a chance on M.L. Newman's My Night Breeze and I'm glad I did. I don't normally read this type of book but something about it drew my attention... and then held it through the purchase of the book, the first chapters and ultimately to it's great conclusion. I won't ruin the story for you but suffice it to say I can't wait to read the next installment. Cool, entertaining, mysterious, suspenseful... yeah that pretty much describes My Night Breeze. Give it a look, I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Members Reviews: Poetic Riveting Story reviewed in a not-so-poetic- way ÂÂ OH. MY. LORDYNESS. This book was just AMAZING! I haven't read such a book in AGES now! The characters 'blossomed', yes, blossomed, for there is no other way to put it. It was fast paced in relevance with the first book, and it definitely kept my interest going, even when I wasn't reading it, my mind couldn't help but continue going over the wonderful-amazingness I've read, and attempting to figure out what would occur next. (Sure enough, I never guessed things right, which in this case is odd because lately that's all I've been doing with books and grown tired of it.) Anyway, my review isn't much of a review, just disorganised rambling, I wish I had more of a poetic way of attempting to describe this book, but alas, this is why I'm not a writer. First, let me explain that from the beginning I was an Armand/Eleanore fan, though I didn't dislike Jesse at all, but I thought, maybe having a love triangle would make it tedious, yet Abé pulled it off nicely. For those who decided to continue reading my overly obsessed ramblings, and those who missed the first installment, Jesse was fated to become a star, and I don't mean the type people can make money off of, he's still very much present in this book and in fact, has a lot to answer for in regards to the destiny of both Armand and Eleanore. If the characters were a bit flat in the beginning (of the first installment), or if any of you readers found it tiresome how it took a while for them to settle in as actual characters, this book expands their personalities more, and makes you care for them both. Eleanore wasn't the typical teenager heroine, no, she was witty, she was a subtle fighter, she didn't let anything bring her down, she loved and care for passionately, her mind and actions made sense, and she was always eating like there wouldn't be another tomorrow XD. SHE HAD AN ACTUAL PERSONALITY. Unlike some typical mainstream novels that go by some sort of guide on how to make their heroines act.

Junior year, the suburbs of Philadelphia. Alex, Mollie, and Veronica are those girls: They're the best of friends and the party girls of the school. But how well does everybody know them - and really, how well do they know one another? Alex is secretly in love with the boy next door and has joined a band - without telling anyone. Mollie suffers from a popular (and possibly sociopathic) boyfriend and a serious mean streak. And Veronica just wants to be loved - literally, figuratively, physically...she's not particular. Will this be the year that bonds them forever or tears them apart for good? In a debut novel that is raw, honest, hilarious, and thought provoking, Lauren Saft masterfully conveys what goes on in the mind of a teenage girl and how often even the closest of friends walk the thin line between love and hate.

Twomey Narrator: Amy Marie Smith Format: Unabridged Length: 6 hrs and 27 mins Language: English Release date: 06-27-17 Publisher: Mary E. Twomey Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 4 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: This is book three in the eight-part Terraway series, with characters based in Filipino folklore. After days spent locked in King Geon's dungeon, October's afraid her sanity has reached the point of no return. With one of her Reapers deranged beyond reason, and the other permanently altered, October isn't sure how she'll be able to keep up with the famine that's run rampant throughout Terraway. With too many souls to reap, October's body starts to break down as she struggles to redeem the world that seems set on her destruction. Members Reviews: What just happened? I loved the book but I'm not in love with the way October is treated. I hated the way this book ended. I want October to have one person show her unconditional love. I hate that every person in her life inevitably let's her down. I never liked the brief romance she explored with Von. I wasn't 100% over the back cracking and I never felt like everyone was appropriately apologetic. October doesn't really have anyone in her corner and I really love her character and want her to stop being attracted and forgiving towards abusive men. The exchange between October and her puller at the end of this book was so unexpected I had to reread it to make sure that I hadn't made up the overreaction of the decade by Von. It's maddening. So aside from that this series is amazing. I find myself wanting to tell people that I know couldn't care less all about what's happening. I'm dreading finishing it. WOW! Can't wait for the next book! I received Torture as an ARC reader, and aging, bought it anyway. I enjoyed Torture as much as I did Touch and Tremble, but what just happened? Did all the characters take a bite of the crazy cake? Mary Twomey had my jaw dropping throughout Torture. I would think I knew where the plot line was going and it up and turned the other way. The relationships between October, Mason, Von and the rest have become more intricate and I canât wait to see what happens in the next book. To share the reasons for my jaw dropping would be a huge spoiler, so I need to leave it with the following sentiments. Someone smack Mason! I am thinking Finn needs some cayenne pepper in his gills. Mason needs to get stronger to pound Danny into the ground. Is Von possessed? Lastly, Bev oh Bev, what happened to you? This is definitely a keeper and I recommend it highly. So many emotions. I couldn't help but get attached to October. Can't help but feel what she feels. There were so many times I was at the edge of my seat with my heart pleading with October yet she continues to stay steadfast with her choices. Continues to distance herself. And push out those who truly do care about her. I am definitely emotionally invested in this series. And the hopeless trials October and her gang have to go through. We all know by now that October can be her own worst enemy but hurt may cause one of her closest allies to turn on her. Working as the catalyst of an avalanche of poor choices. The greatness continues... This series just keeps getting better and better. I look forward to reading every new chapter and every new book. You can't beat the mix of believable characters, great settings, and wonderful plot. I am so glad there is a new book every month, as it would be difficult to wait much longer for the next installment.

Landing on the shores of the ancient Isle of Skye, a remote island off the western coast of Scotland where only the most elite warriors live and train, they are ecstatic to reunite with Sam and Polly, Scarlet and Ruth, a human king and his warriors, and with all of Aiden's coven. Before they can continue their mission for the fourth and final key, the time has come for Caleb and Caitlin to wed. Against the most amazing backdrop Caitlin could ever hope for, an elaborate vampire wedding is planned, including all of the ancient rituals and ceremonies that accompany it. It is the wedding of a lifetime, meticulously planned by Polly and the others, and Caitlin and Caleb are happier than they've ever been. Simultaneously, Sam and Polly, to their own surprise, are each falling deeply in love with one another. As their relationship accelerates, Sam surprises Polly with a vow of his own. And Polly surprises him with her own shocking news. But all is not well beneath the surface. Blake has appeared again, and his deep love for Caitlin might just threaten her union, on the day before her wedding. Sera has appeared again, too, and vows to break apart what she cannot have. Scarlet, too, finds herself in danger, as the source of her deep powers are revealed - along with the revelation of who are her true parents. Worst of all, Kyle has landed back in time, and has tracked down his old protégé, Rynd, to force him to use his shapeshifting skill to trick and kill Caitlin and her people. As they fall into his elaborate trap, Caitlin and the others find themselves in deeper danger than ever before. It will be a race to find the final key, before everyone Caitlin holds dear is wiped out for good. Members Reviews: Finally four keys I was starting to wonder if searching for the keys would ever end! Things started to become repetitive same thing over and over. At one point I thought I was going to quit reading when I read for the millionth time that she looked and couldn't believe what she was seeing, or that she didn't know what people where asking for when they wanted her to use her necklace by this point we could all guess what was coming. Oh and the grammatical mistakes are unreal! Like no one ever proof read the work. Names are constantly being mixed up at one point Kendra was used instead of Caitlin there are missing words or wrong words. Quite frankly my 10 year old wouldn't make so many mistakes. I hope that it was the conversion from book to e book that the mistakes were made. If I paid for a hard copy and found that many mistakes I surely wouldn't continue to buy. These e books are even over priced in my opinion I paid less for way better quality and story line. But at last I am a romantic and I love the way Caitlin and Calebs relationships is portrayed. I love that Scarlet was introduced as their daughter definitely a spin in vampire romance novels. I'm honestly excited for the next books now that there is no more searching for the keys. Suspenseful and romantic I can't believe how well and researched this book is. Morgan Rice has outdone herself. She decribed castles to perfection.

Title: I'll Be Seeing You Author: Lurlene McDaniel Narrator: Julie McKay Format: Unabridged Length: 3 hrs and 52 mins Language: English Release date: 05-03-13 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 3 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: Carley Mattea never expected to become friends with a boy as handsome as Kyle Westin - especially not in the hospital. Seventeen-year-old Kyle was blinded when a chemistry experiment exploded. His doctors don't know whether he'll get his vision back, and he's deeply depressed. Carley understands how miserable it is to be in the hospital. At sixteen, she's had plenty of experience. But Carley is keeping a secret from Kyle. She knows boys like girls who are pretty - and she's not. Scarred by a facial deformity, she has always used her sense of humor to cope. But now that she's become so close to Kyle, she's worried that if his bandages are removed and he sees her, it will be the end of their relationship. Carley wants what's best for Kyle. But what will that mean for her? Members Reviews: I'll Be Seeing You I once had the book when it come out when I was a teen. I long ago got rid of it. Seems there a book or two from the past I want on Kindle now that it had the opinion. I have read a few of Lurlene's books when I was teen, even though I can't remember them now, I'll Be Seeing You seems to be my favorite and the one I remember the most. Even though there are some 90s references at least by some of the things the characters used, is noticeable, But to me I think that, that's what makes this book timeless, and to fair, most of Lurlene's books are like that. Spoilers I have to say I may have thought of book a little differently now that I'm older and not a teenager like the ones in the book. I may have thought that Carley being a little selfish in not telling Kyle the truth about her face. I mean I know teens can be cruel. But I find that - personally - had she told Kyle the truth Carley should trusted he wouldn't have just walked away from her. Mostly because - if she had told him when he was blind even after getting to know him after a few days that yes she could get hurt, but she would be leaving (that is if she waited till she was discharged to tell him) or she could at least hope as she seemly hope that he would stay blind and sight or no sight, he wouldn't look for her. I think Carley knew that Kyle was different from other guys, which I could see, like he said he was shy around girls (though to Carley she thought he was good-looking) And he was a science lover, so he wasn't quite your avenge guy who's type-casted as a nerd or jock. Well, I guess in a sense Kyle is a a bit of a nerd but... he still is adorkable. As for the end, as much as I thought it was bittersweet, first how Kyle found out the truth about Carley and the fight because of her not being honest and Carley assuming Kyle would think her a 'freak' because of her face. I did think the end rushed way too fast to make it a 'happy ending'. And as much as I love the ending, I would have loved to see another chapter or at least an epilogue, maybe of the two of them going to Kyle's school dance (at least reader hopes they did) - or at least Carley's calling Kyle after his 'Be Mine' message. End of Spoilers Even though I'm older, I would re-read this story again. I find this is one of Lurlene's better books. Nostalgia Read I purchased this in a moment of nostalgia. It had been a favorite of mine as a kid but upon rereading it just didn't come across as well as it did then.

More than six months after an accident that broke her legs as well as removed her boyfriend from her life - because Cam Campbell left town and dumped her - high school senior Ellen Foster wants to move past her broken heart. She's off to attend a summer photography workshop at a real university along with her best friends. Ellen's determined to find a new love - or at least a summer boyfriend. In the dorm she meets Harrison Shaw. He's a handsome photography student, a charmer who likes her, and a perfect way to forget her past. What if it all goes perfectly...? Ellen thinks she has everything she wants. Her summer program couldn't be better. She's half in love with Harrison Shaw, and she's going after her next scholarship. But when she kisses Harrison, she can only remember how Cam Campbell used kiss her better, sweeter, and how he used to make her feel like she could fly.... What if something is not right...? When Cam shows up at the university, it's a shock, especially to Ellen's new boyfriend. Cam's distant, different, and very afraid to hurt Ellen again. He asks Ellen if they could be friends despite the past and how they've both changed, and Ellen agrees. But after all they've been through, can Cam and Ellen ever be just friends? What if...? Members Reviews: Amazing I loved this little conclusion book to How I Fall. At first, I didn't understand why there were two books. Then, I actually started the second book and I got it. the time gap definitely jsutifies it. This author definitely keeps your attention. I can't wait to read the rest of her books. The narrators were amazing as well. I fullu recommend this book, the author, and the narrators. Perfect Conclusion to an amazing story. Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why? Yes. Oh Yes! I'd recommend this because it's the same narrators from book one, and it's a continuous story, so you have to find out what happens. I really couldn't see a way out for the characters and I also fell for the new guy a little--because yeah, when you get your heart broken you do need to move on--but as the story unfolded I loved the way it went. What did you like best about this story? I loved the photography descriptions in this one. The characters are doing a summer photography university class at a university, so of course they take pictures and I really liked being able to see the photos that were taken. That was cool, to read them was great, to hear them come alive in audio just really stayed in my mind. I also loved how things went when Cam came back. The friendship that remained, the way Patrick and Laura were all around Ellen being protective, but also the way Ellen had changed and grown up as well. The plot was also very unexpected--like I'd say more but it will be a spoiler so just it was twisting and turning so it wasn't just about the romance which I liked, too. What about Wen Ross and Kai Kennicott s performance did you like? Again, Kai Kennicott how she did Laura London's Irish voice. I have never laughed so loud about a character ever. There were also a couple of really sad scenes and the way Kai read that emotion just was...oh...so great.

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 24 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: Val Shapiro has a secret she's desperate to keep - she's lost her slayer powers. As the new guardian of the Encyclopedia Magicka, Val expected the books to give her powers to replace those that disappeared after she lost her "V card" to Shade. But the encyclopedia exacts a price for every spell, making the job of guardian a tricky proposition. When a rogue demon kidnaps Val's roommate, Gwen, and Micah, leader of the San Antonio Demon Underground, Val is plunged into the middle of a Solomon's Choice. The rogue wants the dangerously potent Encyclopedia Magicka in exchange for her friends' lives; the succubus leader of the Demon Underground in Austin is demanding the books be destroyed rather than let them fall into the wrong hands and wants Shade for herself, swearing to do everything she can to prevent Val's turning over the books. The kidnapping isn't the only crisis Val faces. She's been betrayed by Fang. Demons and vampires are disappearing. The vamps of the New Blood Movement are forcing Val to keep the terms of her agreement to work for them to combat this new threat. The Demon Underground is challenging Micah's leadership, and everyone is depending on a now-powerless Val to set things right. Val needs all the help she can get. Even if it means forgiving Fang and spending time with a dangerously sexy cowboy-vampire. Members Reviews: GREAT SERIES! I loved this book. The series gets better with each installment. Lots of different Fae characters each with different powers. Strong beautiful Vampires with plenty of Vampire politics. Plenty of action, a good mystery and a some nice romance. I highly recommend. enjoyable series, entertaining Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not? Yes I enjoyed listening bc I can did other things while I do. Would you be willing to try another one of Mare Trevathans performances? I have listened to the entire series. The worst part is the narration. The principal character is young but the narrator has a very odd voice not one of someone young. I almost did not purchase the first book in the series but the story seemed fun so I opted to give it a try. Each book is no easier to listen to her as the story teller. Do you think Make Me needs a follow-up book? Why or why not? Yes the story is clearly not compete.

Eighteen-year-old Annie Winters can barely run a mile without wheezing. Still, she's training to run the Music City Marathon in October. That's only seven months away. Running is so not her thing, but she has to finish what her boyfriend started - before he died. Annie feels guilt that she's still alive and blames herself for his death; she has to do this to honor him. Plus training gives her something to do, it's a distraction. So is Jeremiah Brown. He's an adrenaline junky who runs marathons backwards. He flirts with Annie on the trails and it makes Annie feel alive and happy and guilty all at the same time. She wants to race into his arms and sprint in the opposite direction - because loving is a risk she's not ready to take again. Members Reviews: Breathe, Annie, Breathe - Gone with the Words Review Miranda Kenneally sure knows how to get me every. time. She knows how to write good people in tough situations. I root for them, fall for them, every. time. Breathe, Annie, Breathe was no different. I loved Annie. She was tough and vulnerable, and determined. Her dedication to the marathon training was really admirable, considering she was never into running. The pains that came along with the training scared me from ever thinking of attempting it myself, but who knows. Right now Iâm just trying to make a 5K without passing out. Now, her reason for wanting to run this marathon was just heartbreaking. I could really feel her grief throughout the book. But those moments of happiness that were brought on by new friends and new experiences really made my heart swell with happiness for her. Jeremiah Brown is one of those new friends I mentioned. If you read Things I Canât Forget you may remember him. He was Mattâs younger, player brother. Matt Brown is one of my favorite boys ever. Heâs just the best kind of guy. Anyway, this book takes place a few years after Things I Canât Forget. Matt & Kate are out of college, and Matt helps train people to run in marathons and such. Thatâs how Annie meets Jeremiah and I have to say, I was skeptical that Jeremiah would be what Annie needed. I mean, he was a player, no? Well, people grow up eventually, and he certainly seemed to have done some growing. It must be a Brown thing, because he made me swoon just as much as Matt did. These two will be the death of me! I loved how slow Annie and Jeremiah took their developing friendshipâ but I was ready for them to be more than friends pretty much from the get-go. HAHA But thatâs just what I wanted, not what was right for them, or what was right for Annie, to be more precise. They have this one hot, explosive moment early on, which had me fanning myself and grinning like a fool, then itâs a lot of sweet and fun between the two. I loved it all. Sidenote: Having listened to all audiobooks in this series the last couple of weeks, I can say with certainty that Annie has been the character who swears the most. HAHA I just found that tidbit super amusing. Girl loves her f-bombs. And, I mean, who doesnât? There are A TON of cameos in this one that made so so so happy to read about.

Layla Harrison wants to leave her beach-bum days for digs behind a reporter's desk. Aster Amirpour wants to scream at the next casting director who tells her "we need ethnic but not your kind of ethnic." Tommy Phillips dreams of buying a 12-string guitar and using it to shred his way back into his famous absentee dad's life. But Madison Brooks took destiny and made it her bitch a long time ago. She's Hollywood's hottest starlet, and the things she did to become the name on everyone's lips are merely a stain on the pavement, ground beneath her Louboutin heel. That is, until Layla, Aster, and Tommy find themselves with VIP invites to the glamorous and gritty world of Los Angeles' nightlife and lured into a high-stakes competition where Madison Brooks is the target. Just as their hopes begin to gleam like stars through the California smog, Madison Brooks goes missing...and all of their hopes are blacked out in the haze of their lies. Unrivaled is number-one New York Times best-selling author Alyson Noël's first book in a thrilling suspense trilogy about how our most desperate dreams can become our darkest nightmares. Hollywood Boulevard is a place best viewed behind a pair of polarized lenses and lowered expectations. Yet if you know where to look (and if you're fortunate enough to boast a spot on the guest list), it's an oasis of the city's hottest nightclubs - a hedonistic haven for the young, fabulous, and rich. But there's no exiting through the gift shop if you buy a ticket to this show. Once you push past the velvet ropes and pulsing crowds, you might never escape. Members Reviews: Amazing!! This book totally held my attention from word one. Alyson Noël has done it again!!! I cannot wait to see what the next book in this series holds! Let's hope we don't have to wait any longer than we have to for it!!

Title: The End of Our Story Author: Meg Haston Narrator: Caitlin Kelly, James Fouhey Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 48 mins Language: English Release date: 04-04-17 Publisher: HarperAudio Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 6 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: Every love story has a breaking point.... From the author of Paperweight comes the star-crossed romance of two high school friends in a tale rife with deeply buried secrets and shocking revelations. Before: Bridge and Wil have been entangled in each other's lives for years. Under the white-hot Florida sun, they went from kids daring each other to swim past the breakers to teenagers stealing kisses between classes. But when Bridge betrayed Wil during their junior year, she shattered his heart and their relationship along with it. After: When Wil's family suffers a violent loss, Bridge rushes back to Wil's side. As they struggle to heal old wounds and start falling for each other all over again, Bridge and Wil discover just how much has changed in the past year. Though they once knew each other's every secret, they aren't the same people they used to be. Bridge can't imagine life without Wil, but sometimes love isn't enough. Can they find their way back to each other, or will this be the end of their story? Members Reviews: Open ending. :-( This was a drama-filled YA romance. It is a long listen but is needed to understand the drama to all of the characters. This was not a cliff hanger but an ending that YOU (the reader) must decide how it ended. No epilogue. For the drama, intensity and open ending, I gave it 3 stars. Narration was fantastic! Worth my credit? I would wait for a sale but not use a credit.

Title: Guy in Real Life Author: Steve Brezenoff Narrator: MacLeod Andrews, Arielle DeLisle Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 33 mins Language: English Release date: 05-27-14 Publisher: HarperAudio Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 60 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: It is Labor Day weekend in Saint Paul, Minnesota, and a boy and a girl collide on a dark street at two thirty in the morning; Lesh, who wears black, listens to metal, and plays MMOs; Svetlana, who embroiders her skirts, listens to Björk and Berlioz, and dungeon masters her own RPG. They should pick themselves up, continue on their way, and never talk to each other again. But they don't. This is a story of two people who do not belong in each other's lives, and who find each other at a time when they desperately need someone who doesn't belong in their lives. A story of those moments when we act like people we aren't in order to figure out who we are. A story of the roles we all play - at school, at home, with our friends, and without our friends - and the one person who might be able to show us who we are underneath it all. Members Reviews: Clever story, creative characters, loads of fun This book has more layers than a simple young adult novel, and both my teenage children and I enjoyed the humor, characters and plot. Lesh is a metal head who always wears black, and Svetlana is an eccentric, artistic, creative tabletop gamer. They forge a tentative friendship at school, sitting at the same lunch table in several delightfully awkward scenes. At home, Svetlana's parents continually force her to join them in activities she finds torturous, while Lesh's parents are mostly absent yet he's grounded for 2 weeks with basically no parental supervision, during which time he begins gaming online out of boredom. There are several chapters which describe, very humorously, the storyline of Lesh's online fantasy game, and I found these to be expertly narrated by MacLeod Andrews, causing me to laugh out loud MANY times. I'm not sure I would have enjoyed the gaming scenes as much had I read them in print! Anyone who has played or watched online RPGs will appreciate how perfectly Steve Brezenoff wrote the video game scenes, and even listeners with no gaming experience will be entertained by MacLeod Andrews' clever voicing of the fantasy characters. I felt Arielle DeLisle, with her sweet, clear, whimsical voice was a wonderful Svetlana, and MacLeod Andrews was able, as usual, to portray both Lesh's sulky teen boy voice and crazed, hormonal teen boy thoughts without missing a beat. Well done by both narrators. Some sweetly romantic scenes plus a surprisingly clever twist at the end of the book gave it depth and raised some thought provoking questions about gender and role playing in real life. Genuine exploration of Lesh and Svetlana's journey towards making peace with their parents and their friends also kept this book from being a simple YA novel. I highly recommend it. whaaaaattttt!?!?! Interesting, not Elenore & Park but good. What the freak kind of ending was that tho!?!?!? First Love. What made the experience of listening to Guy in Real Life the most enjoyable? I like the nerd culture elements and the relatability of the characters and their first love story. What does MacLeod Andrews and Arielle DeLisle bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book? I love when a book told from two perspectives use two different narrators. It brings another dimension to the story. Any additional comments? This book was really cute and told a first love story in a really creative way.

He was like a star: bright, consuming, and otherworldly. The thing about stars, though, is that they eventually fall - and Rivers was no different. He fell far, and he fell hard. Delilah Bana was the outcast enshrouded in all of life's ironies. She was alone and in the dark, like dusk as it falls on the world. When Rivers fell from the sky, she was the night that caught him. In the darkness they melded into something beautiful that shone like the sun. Only the greater the star is, the shorter its lifespan. Members Reviews: This is a great book...... Real. I love Audible! the narration was good and the story was realistic. loved it! Too sad The writing and performance were awesome but I couldn't finish it because it was too sad. I can't say for sure that there isn't a HEA but I can guesstimate with certainty that there isn't. I just couldn't deal. I'm returning this one.

When English girl Sky catches a glimpse of bad boy Zed in her new American high school, she can't get him out of her head. He talks to her with his thoughts. He reads her mind. He is the boy she will love for ever. Shadows stalk her past but a new evil threatens her future. She must face the dark even if it means losing her heart. Will Sky have the strength to embrace her power and be brave enough to control her own destiny, or will the demons of her past prevent her from realizing her true potential? What the Narrator Says "I absolutely loved narrating this trilogy. YAF is a guilty pleasure of mine and I really fell for all of the Benedict brothers! I think my favourite is Stealing Phoenix - she's such a fab character, full of fire (to match Yves's) and really feisty. But the big question is - who's your favourite Benedict boy? I think mine is probably Zed for his dark moodiness although I really like Xavier's great sense of humour." Lucy Price-Lewis, narrator of Joss Stirling's Trilogy. Critic Reviews: "An edge-of-your-seat paranormal romance for girls who want more than just a romance." (Lovereading4kids) "Joss Stirling is such a talented writer with imaginative storylines, exciting and fast-paced plots which are thrilling and full of suspense." (Book Passion for Life Blogspot) Members Reviews: Adored this charming paranormal Where does Finding Sky rank among all the audiobooks youve listened to so far? Not sure about a ranking system, since I read a eclectic range of books. I thought Finding Sky was one of the better YA/NA books I have listened to, and it definitely worked well as an audio/audible book. The reader was perfect. She is one of my favorites. Who was your favorite character and why? I loved Sky. Her snarky British sense of humor is perfection, and she was a genuinely nice person, as well. Which scene was your favorite? I loved any of the interactions between the hero and Sky, especially when they were bantering back and forth. There was a lot of charm, humor and tenderness between the two main characters. Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting? I found this book difficult to put down, and I got a bit snarly when I was interrupted. I have purchased the next two in the series, and am happy that the same reader is doing both. Any additional comments? This novel is the perfect combination of reader and content. Loved it, and I hope to see the reader do many more novels with British heroines. She is perfect. I kind of regret using a credit on this one Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not? The first half - yes. The second have I found myself frustrated with the heroine's actions. Did she ever show her strengths?!?!? Any additional comments? The narrator did an amazing job. I think this book should have had a sequel about Sky. I think the heroine has a lot of growing (up) to do. It did not feel complete. The next book is about Phoenix and Yves. I am not sure this book was worth an audible credit. I may listen to the next book in the series if the audio version goes on sale not more than $1.99. You can get the audio version for $4.49 if you buy the kindle version for $12.99.

But some are chafing under the shortages and restrictions, and when inventor Dr. Featherstone declares he has found a way to override all borders, there are those who applaud the discovery and those who fear it. When Dr. Featherstone fails to return home for an important scientific gathering, his daughter Caroline enlists the help of the member of Parliament from Charlotte, Nathan Llewellen. As the two search for the kidnappers, Caroline is plunged into a world where travel to other realities is possible in the blink of an eye, and people can assume the forms of fearsome as well as familiar animals...and where love comes at the most unexpected times and places. Nathan's peculiar gift might cost Caroline her life, but she has already lost her heart. Members Reviews: unique and interesting! This was a unique and interesting romance with paranormal elements (time travel.) I listened to this with my 14 year old and we enjoyed it. Narration was good and story kept us listening from start to finish. Looking forward to book 2. ** A copy of this audio book was provided in exchange for an honest review** Good Story I got this ARC via audiobook boom. I am not a fan of time travel books but this one is a good one. It is filled with shapeshifters, magic gates, greed, and corruption. The narrator was good and she brought out the emotions that each character exhibited. The story was well developed and kept me listening to the entire time. I completed it in two sittings and was well pleased with the entire story. There was not a real cliffhanger but you know that there should be more books. well okay how should I start? overall I did love this book it was very nice written.... I could feel the timeline very well.. the fantasy and reality collided quite well in this book... it might sound funny but I liked the progressivity of the Kings.. they were quite modern for this period ... the fantasy and sci-fi was very very good I didn't feel like it was forced on you... I loved the romance in the book... I think everything was in time I can't wait to put my hands on the 2nd audiobook.. p.s. the narrator was quite good she wasn't boring and she didn't enforce too much feelings on the book she read it quite monotonically but not in a boring way.... I certainly thumbs up for this book Good mix of Fantasy, History & Romance Although paranormal genre isn't my "norm" this book kept my attention. I was pleased to find the characters were believable and the plot was a great mix of fantasy, history and romance. It is written well and is a good beginning to this series. Narration can definitely make or break an audio book. I have to admit that I had to start and restart this book a few times because of the narration. She read without much inflection and seemed a bit monotone. Once I got used to the rhythm of her voice I got past my judgment and just got into the story and enjoyed it. I recommend that everyone listen to the audio sample a of any book before purchasing. I was given this free audiobook review copy at my request and have voluntarily left this review. Enjoyable story I thoroughly enjoyed this story. It had a very steampunk feel and the story itself was quite entertaining.

Being Audrey Hepburn Audiobook by Mitchell Kriegman

Title: Being Audrey Hepburn Subtitle: A Novel Author: Mitchell Kriegman Narrator: Suzy Jackson Format: Unabridged Length: 12 hrs and 15 mins Language: English Release date: 11-18-14 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 16 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: In Being Audrey Hepburn, Clarissa Explains It All-creator Mitchell Kriegman tells the story of a 19-year-old girl from Jersey who finds herself thrust into the world of socialites after being seen in Audrey Hepburn's dress from the film Breakfast at Tiffany's. Lisbeth comes from a broken home in the land of tube tops, heavy eyeliner, frosted lip-gloss, juiceheads, hoop earrings, and "the shore". She has a circle of friends who have dedicated their teenage lives to relieve the world of all its alcohol one drink at a time. Obsessed with everything Audrey Hepburn, Lisbeth is transformed when she secretly tries on Audrey's iconic Givenchy. She becomes who she wants to be by pretending to be somebody she's not and living among the young and privileged Manhattan elite. Soon she's faced with choices that she would never imagine making - between who she's become and who she once was. In the tradition of The Nanny Diaries and The Devil Wears Prada, this is a coming of age story that all begins with that little black dress... Members Reviews: Charming and more Lisbeth comes from a family where she doesn't really fit in. Her mother is an alcoholic, her sister is quickly following suit, and her younger brother is struggling with some clear behavior disorders. Lisbeth's mother has a future all planned out for her since she is the "good daughter" with potential. However, it is a future Lisbeth wants nothing to do with. Lisbeth's main support system comes from her Nan, who shares and understands her obsession with Audrey Hepburn, and her best friend Jess, a brilliant fashion student currently working as a museum curator. One night Lisbeth meets Jess at the museum and finds herself trying on the famous Givenchy made for Audrey. A couple turns of event lead to a night that will change her whole life. Lisbeth finds herself in a world she has been desperate to experience, but knows that it can't last. Partially because she is pretending to be someone she isn't. Specifically Audrey Hepburn. At first, I was afraid that this was just going to be a fluffy story with a few mishaps and a little charm. In the beginning there was an awful lot of the author making sure we understood just how much Lisbeth loved Audrey Hepburn, and at one point I had to plead with the author to move on and stop repeating the word "Givenchy". However, those feelings quickly faded away as I became more connected to Lisbeth and found that there was much more to her and the story. What we get is a young girl finding herself and deciding who and what she wants to be. Even through the charade, it seems that Lisbeth is finding herself rather than losing herself in this world that is vastly different from her own. It was rewarding to see her discovering her talents, and finding the courage to go after the life she really wanted rather than the one that was being forced on her.

To her, summers at Aunt Sookie's beach house were magical, especially getting to spend time with the Donovans - her best friend Rachel and Rachel's brothers Nathaniel and Drew. Here at Aunt Sookie's beach house, they can be anyone and anything they dreamed. For Summer, she had always wished to become as pretty as Rachel and for Rachel's brothers to think of her as more than Rachel's friend. For Nat and Drew, summer at Aunt Sookie's beach house meant fun and escape, a place where they went with their mom and sister for the summer, away from city life. They never thought this summer would be different. They never thought things would change as much as they did... and it all began with them falling for and loving Summer. Book 1 of the Loving Summer Series Members Reviews: Kissing other boys is cheating! I do not recommend this book/series to anyone esp. teens. It is not okay the way Summer handle her confused feelings, its not okay how this series just kept going with the mistakes. IF you really loved someone as much as the author claims that Summer loves this boys then you could not go from one's arms into anothers in matters of moments with no guilt! THIS IS NOT OKAY! Confusion about your feelings is okay do not get me wrong but the way it was dealt with in this series is just so so wrong and it just gets worse the more books you read into this seires. That will teach me about buying all the books at one time, thankfully the rest was kindle versions and I was able to return them.

Scars of Youth Audiobook by Shane Morales

Title: Scars of Youth Author: Shane Morales Narrator: Corinne Shor Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 54 mins Language: English Release date: 01-24-17 Publisher: Xylem Flow Publishing Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 2 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: Is first love forever? Twenty-five year old Jessica Fowler has lived with the regret of the love she abandoned. Her heart still belongs to the boy she fell in love with in high school, but she's come to accept that she can never regain the love she lost. Kyle Andersen has moved to a new city and is determined to make a new life for himself, but he still feels incomplete. He's never gotten over the girl who broke his heart when he was just 15, and the love he still feels for her anchors him to his past. On the same night, the two remember each other, and they think back to that one year in high school that came to define their lives. This is their story. Set at boarding school in Switzerland, Scars of Youth is the emotional first book in a unique series about the power of first love and second chances. If you like tender romances full of emotion, love, and heartbreak then you'll love this heartfelt and moving tale of two teens who find true love together, and the scars that their youth carves into their hearts. Members Reviews: Love, Hard Rock and Growing Up At a Boarding School in Switzerland Scars of Youth is a high school romance with a twist - a unique setting in a boarding school in Switzerland. Many of the students also have a shared background living in Saudi Arabia (or just "Saudi") and in the United States before then. The result in this story about two high school students who fall in love is a strongly knit social group teenagers with common geographic and life experiences. Kyle and Jessica, who alternate first-person narration throughout the story, find themselves experiencing a budding romance despite the fact that Jessica is a "senior". Although a two-year difference between lovers may not be significant for people later in life, the fact that it is a reality to the two lovers and their friends reminds the reader that this is a story of youth. Their shared love of hard rock and metal music and mutual coming-of-age experiences drinking a variety of beer help focus this tale of attraction, misunderstanding and fun. Complicating the evolution of the romance is Kyle's best friend Jen (known as "Beautiful Girl") who is close enough to Kyle to cause Jessica frustration. This edition of Scars of Youth (I) is intended as the first part of the story of Jessica and Kyle. The second edition is already available on Amazon for readers interested in seeing where their relationship goes next. I was glad to have a chance to read it and would recommend it to readers of coming-of-age or young romance stories. Worth Reading Take a bunch of teenagers at boarding school in Switzerland, add in minimal adult supervision and alcohol, and you get a novel full of lust, love, angst, and sex. Thatâs basically Scars of Youth. And it reminds me why Iâm the meanest parent in town because I insist on a curfew for my teenage daughter. I had a couple of reservations about Scars of Youth. Itâs written as a Young Adult novel, but set in 1985. I was a teenager in 1985, so I enjoyed that apsect. But Iâm not sure how interested modern teens are in reading such âold schoolâ stuff. My teenager daughter is all into modern (John Green, Jojo Moyes) or dystopian (Divergent, Hunger Games). Also, the writing style is a lot darker and more gritty than the boarding school stories I remember reading in 1985 (e.g. Anne Digbyâs Trebizon series. Yes, I remember 1985).

Tavia Michaels is the sole survivor of the plane crash that killed her parents. When she starts to see strange visions of a boy she's never spoken with in real life, she begins to suspect that there's much about her past that she isn't being told. Tavia will soon to discover that she's an Earthbound - someone with the ability to create matter out of nothing - and that she alone holds the key to stopping the Reduciata, an evil society that manipulates global events for its own shadowy purposes. Tavia will ultimately have to make a choice: to come into her powers and save the world from the evil Reduciata or to choose free will and a love of her own. Aprilynne Pike has created a heart-stopping romance built on a love triangle like you've never seen before and filled with epic stakes and a centuries-long conspiracy. Give it to fans of Nightshade and Fallen. Members Reviews: Loved the fast pace and all the mystery and unique supernatural element They do say better late than never right? I read this as soon as it came out but I'm just now reviewing it. Sorry, for that because it's a great novel, the start of a new supernatural/paranormal series that I really loved! First there is a unique sort of romance. Well, there is a triangle of sorts but, not really. You can tell where Tavia's interests lie. As always, the book blurb is totally misleading. I'll clear it up. Tavia has been the only survivor of a plane crash. In order to avoid publicity, her aunt and uncle keep that secret and she is not allowed to contact her friends at home. She is in New Hampshire, home is Michigan. Benson, her crush, is something that has developed just over the last few months as she's been visiting the library. He helps her with her studies as she is basically homeschooling herself. So it's not like she's liked him since the fourth grade or anything, in fact, it has only been a month since she finally came clean about who she actually was and that she realized she was falling for Benson. But now, there is this strange boy that disappears right in front of her, who dresses in period costume and feels like he's someone she should know, someone she misses. And she's not sure if she should tell anyone about him or keep him to herself. There, I should have written the blurb. Tavia, is a unique character. She is orphaned, broken-both physically and emotionally, damaged. All of a sudden she starts seeing this boy in period costume and these silver symbols on buildings. Is she being stalked? Is she just seeing things? Or, from the strain of everything, is she losing her mind? Tavia (rhymes with cave not mauve thank you author for working that into the book) is cautious in not jumping to conclusions. She has a therapist that she talks to, but everything in her urges caution with this boy. She was headed to an art school interview with her parents when the plane crashed and so she hasn't been able to even doodle since then. Everything she loves has been ripped from her in that plane crash. Everything familiar has been taken from her. Even her hair from the brain surgery they did and a little act of frustration on her part is foreign to her. She looks in the mirror and doesn't know who she is anymore. But this is not a young woman that feels sorry for herself.

Lies Beneath Audiobook by Anne Greenwood Brown

Title: Lies Beneath Author: Anne Greenwood Brown Narrator: MacLeod Andrews Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 23 mins Language: English Release date: 06-12-12 Publisher: Listening Library Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 23 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: Calder White lives in the cold, clear waters of Lake Superior, the only brother in a family of murderous mermaids. To survive, Calder and his sisters prey on humans, killing them to absorb their energy. But this summer the underwater clan targets Jason Hancock out of pure revenge. They blame Hancock for their mother's death and have been waiting a long time for him to return to his family's homestead on the lake. Hancock has a fear of water, so to lure him in, Calder sets out to seduce Hancock's daughter, Lily. Easy enough - especially as Calder has lots of practice using his irresistable good looks and charm on ususpecting girls. Only this time Calder screws everything up: he falls for Lily - just as Lily starts to suspect that there's more to the monsters-in-the-lake legends than she ever imagined. And just as his sisters are losing patience with him. Members Reviews: Lies and Love Calder White has a score to settle. Though, his heart's not quite as into revenge as his marauding mermaid sisters' but a promise is a promise. And the only fair debt for a promise broken and the fate of their mother, is the death of Jason Hancock. If Calder plays his role right, a part he's confidently played many times before, he'll receive the freedom he desires. Unfortunately Lilly Hancock isn't like any prey he's lured before and Calder won't know what's got it's hooks in him until it's too late. Lies beneath is not the typical mermaid fairytale. A lot of the choices Brown makes gives this book a refreshing facelift to the tried and used concepts surrounding the genre. My favorite part of Lies Beneath is the male perspective. I found Calder's voice interesting and different. It reminded me of a guy version of Cinderella with his evil stepsisters and good heart. Lilly was fun as well, not being the typical quirky artsy character, into fine arts or fiction but poetry. The only downside is the story line wasn't complex enough. You could very easily see where things were going. Yet the characters, romance, and Brown's unique take on the mythology keeps the reader's interest from focusing too much on any transparencies. MacLeod Andrews has a great voice for YA, it's mature without being too old. I've gotten a few audiobooks featuring him and his reads are always a pleasure. Andrews voice is nice and deep, his acting is subtle with wonderful inflections that really guide a listener to a character's mood or intent. He also has a great range of voices. MacLeod Andrews is quickly becoming an impulse purchasing factor for me to buy now, find out what it's about later. Anne Greenwood Brown's debut is a little something different with a lot of great things going for it. Lies Beneath is an entertaining read told by an unusual voice just in time for beach reading season. Nice story Would you consider the audio edition of Lies Beneath to be better than the print version? Yes, because MacLeod Andrews is a terrific narrator and brings a wonderful dimension to the story that you don't get with print. Who was your favorite character and why? Hm... I liked Calder, the narrator. He was interesting, a murderous merman who started out as a human boy. He's got a lot of depth to him. He's a killer but for some reason trying to avoid killing lately.

Transparent Audiobook by Natalie Whipple

Title: Transparent Author: Natalie Whipple Narrator: Tavia Gilbert Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs Language: English Release date: 05-21-13 Publisher: HarperAudio Ratings: 3 of 5 out of 5 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: Plenty of teenagers feel invisible. Fiona McClean actually is. An invisible girl is a priceless weapon. Fiona's own father has been forcing her to do his dirty work for years -everything from spying on people to stealing cars to breaking into bank vaults. After 16 years, Fiona's had enough. She and her mother flee to a small town, and for the first time in her life, Fiona feels like a normal life is within reach. But Fiona's father isn't giving up that easily. Of course, he should know better than anyone: never underestimate an invisible girl. Members Reviews: Quick Read but Full of Flaws I liked the romance aspect and how the storyline is similar to the X-men. It was a quick and easy read. Other than that, I can't think of anything that stands out positively. The rest is a pile of negative aspects that I couldn't overlook. 1) Why is Fiona and her mom so afraid that her dad would find them? She's invisible. That trait alone should make it easy for her to disappear completely. Yes, her dad has the ability to lure women to like him with his scent. So what? As long as he isn't physically near the two of them, this shouldn't affect them at all.The power does linger a bit even after the separation, but throughout the book, they started to be free. Why still be afraid? 2) Why go to school? After escaping from her dad, Fiona is enrolled into a local school. She recently just ran away, why immediately go to school? Yes, maybe her mom wants her to feel normal and have friends. However, is it really a good idea for her to go to school especially when they are still under the dad's charm? She should have at least waited until the charm wears off. Or they should have waited a while to see if people are hunting them down. If I ran away from the head of a mafia, who has many connections with other people, I would never enroll into a school, which is filled with people. 3) Why keep her name? After she runs away, she just kept her name. The first thing she should have done is to change her name; that would have helped her a little bit. Granted, she is the only person who is invisible, so I'm not sure how much that can help. However, that is just another reason for her not go to school! Especially since so many of the students almost immediately figured out that she's in hiding. 4) The store scene. After school one day, She goes to a store with Bea. They see that Graham, Fiona's older, "evil" brother, is there too. Fiona instantly freaks out because she believes that he will take her back to their father. It's as if she forgot that she's invisible. Why have Bea distract Graham while she sneaks out of the store? All Fiona had to do was find a near-secluded spot and take off her clothes. Then she would be completely invisible. It's not like she's scared to walk around naked either. She used to go to missions for her dad while being naked. So why not do that now? 5) Graham. I can't accept that Graham is actually on Fiona's side all along. Anyone who freely grabs people, fly them high in the sky, and then drop them simply to scare them will never be considered good. 6) Why not use makeup? Throughout the book, Fiona expresses how she dislikes how she's never seen herself before. Why didn't she try some makeup? She should have used some foundation on her face. Then some lipstick so she can see her mouth.

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 19 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: But secret lives can be complicated. When a wealthy, handsome Englishman discovers this bewitching urchin backstage, Tessa's two lives collide - and in escaping her inheritance, she finds her destiny. Members Reviews: Sweet, very special book! It's a very sweet touching book. It's a shame is abridged. I am a hopeless romantic and really enjoyed it! Eva Ibbotson's writing is really magical! Curate's egg I love all the Eva Ibbotson books and can read them on a loop. Unfortunately I had to go for the abridged versions on Audible because the Kate Lock unabridged ones are impossible to listen to. (I returned mine - which means you can't review them...but other reviewers have said exactly what I think anyway.) This one is better; at least the voice is quite pleasant and the reading sympathetic. However, all the foreign phrases are so mispronounced as to be unintelligible (and she does absolutely the worst Geordie accent I've ever heard). A cringe. Don't the actors think to research this first? And isn't there an editor at Audible who can help when they mess up? Does nobody check? I don't think that is asking too much.

Grasping at Eternity Audiobook by Karen Amanda Hooper

Before entering this life, Maryah did the unthinkable - she erased. Now, at 17 years old, she's clueless that her new adoptive family has known her for centuries, that they are perpetually reincarnated souls, and that they have supernatural abilities. Oh, and she's supposed to love (not despise) Nathan, the green-eyed daredevil who saved her life. Nathan is convinced his family's plan to spark Maryah's memory is hopeless, but his love for her is undying. After spending (and remembering) so many lifetimes together, being around an empty version of his soulmate is heart shattering. He hates acting like a stalker, but has no choice because the evil outcast who murdered Maryah in their last lifetime is still after her. While Maryah's hunter inches closer, she and Nathan make assumptions and hide secrets that rip them further apart. Maryah has to believe in the magic within her, Nathan must have faith in the power of their love, and both need to grasp onto the truth before they lose each other forever - and discover just how lonely eternity can be. Members Reviews: Reincarnated Reading Experience Would you listen to Grasping at Eternity again? Why? Absolutely. This is actually a re-read for me as I've read it in e-book form before, so I knew I'd love the story. It's the first time I've re-read a story as an audiobook, and it added a whole new dimension for me, like re-discovering an old friend. I'll definitely listen again. What was one of the most memorable moments of Grasping at Eternity? The big finale, really. But I can't tell you about that because spoilers! Which character as performed by Noah Michael Levine and Erin deWard was your favorite? Nathan, but then I've always had a bit of a crush on him! I loved the way Erin did all the female characters too, especially Sheila, for some reason! Must have been the Irish accent. If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be? Er, that's a tricky question. Have you ever tried to write a good tag line before? I'll just say it'd include the words: Love! Reincarnation! Magic! Stars! Any additional comments? I'm a big Karen fan, and if you loved this book, just wait for the next one! Squee :) An Amazing Experience! I literally just finished listening to this audio book and I am amazed! I had already read this book a couple of years ago, but I feel like I was reading it again for the first time! The narrators enhanced the reading experience so much! The way they conveyed each emotion and portrayed each character was incredible. I felt like I was seeing a movie with how vividly the narrators performed the story. I was laughing, crying, swooning, and smiling the whole time I was listening to this narration. One small complaint is that Erin would sometimes whisper and I had to turn the volume up, but then Noah would have a loud voice, which meant I had to lower the volume. I was playing around with the volume controls for along time, but I didn't mind it once I got used to it. As for the book itself, I was captivated by the very beginning by Maryah's story. The writing was lush and intrinsically, and I wouldn't help but keep listening. If you're having any thoughts about this book, don't.

Finding Mr. Brightside Audiobook by Jay Clark

Abram and Juliette know each other. They've lived down the street from each other their whole lives. But they don't really know each other - at least not until Juliette's mom and Abram's dad have a torrid affair that culminates in a deadly car crash. Later, when they see each other, it's uncomfortable, to say the least. They don't speak. Fast forward to the neighborhood pharmacy, a few months later. Abram is on Paxil. Juliette is on Adderall. Abram decides to say hello. Then he decides to invite her to Taco Bell. To both of their surprise, she agrees. And the real love story begins. At turns poignant, funny, and insightful, this compelling novel proves that love can emerge from pain and ultimately triumph. Members Reviews: Finding Mr Brightside There are some books that capture you from just the synopsis, Finding Mr Brightside was one of those books, I was fascinated by the way that Juliette and Abram know of each other, Juliette's Mom and Abram's Dad were having an affair and subsequently died together in a car accident, and while they've lived down the street from each other all of their lives they've avoided personal contact, until the night they run into each other at a pharmacy, it's from this encounter they begin to spend a lot of time together and ultimately find kindred spirits in each other having both gone through the same thing. This story was so funny, heartwarming and cute, I adored it and finished it in one sitting and wanted to reread it immediately then and there it was just so good. This may just be one of my favourite books of the year so far. For those who love their contemporary romances with an original storyline, then you need to pick this one up. A book for people who love YA books This was a charming, well-written book full of complex characters. I loved both Juliette and Abram. The story drew me in without being overly histrionic; though the plot could have led to wildly out-of-control YA book angst, Mr. Clark managed to make the story emotional and compelling without falling into tired tropes and cliches. I wish this book had more reviews...it should be read by everyone who loves YA books, unless you're only in it for sex (which is only briefly mentioned). Then you probably won't like this book, so you should go back to the badly written crap that gets hundreds of 5 star reviews for no apparent reason. I would put this up at the same level as Eleanor & Park. Kudos, Mr. Clark. Please, please write more. One of My Favorite Reads of 2015 This is easily one of my favorite books of 2015. A great story with great voices. I rarely like storytelling that involves alternating voices, but this works so well because the voices are two distinct people. Laugh out loud funny at times and heartbreakingly poignant at others, I've recommended this book to everyone I recommend books to. I fear it's gotten lost in the crowded YA field, but I genuinely hope it finds a few more readers. Just a terrific book. Amazing book! Extremely witty and entertaining Amazing book! Extremely witty and entertaining..

Members Reviews: Horrible story .. bad narration What would have made When It Happens better? the plot was just horrible from the beginning , I would re-write the whole story to make it better .. with different characters and more depth Has When It Happens turned you off from other books in this genre? no .. not exactly because I've faced bad books in the genre but I expected more from Susane Colasanti How could the performance have been better? there was no information in this book .. just poor characters who want to fall in love and have sex If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from When It Happens? she does not feel the character and she narrate as she is reading the story for the first time so she doesn't get the tone right .. and she ruined the mood for me Any additional comments? I wanted to like this book but it wasn't that good so sad

Title: Sleepy Hollow Author: Dax Varley Narrator: Sofia Willingham Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 58 mins Language: English Release date: 09-12-14 Publisher: Dotti Enderle Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 57 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: Katrina is still haunted by her encounter with the Headless Horseman - the night he beckoned to her. Now he has risen again, slashing heads and terrorizing the quiet countryside. Her only joy during this dismal darkness comes when Ichabod Crane, a gorgeous young man from Connecticut, moves to Sleepy Hollow and their attraction turns to romance. When the Horseman marks Ichabod as his next victim, Katrina, despite dangerous efforts to save him, sees no other choice than for them to flee. But the Horseman awaits. Now it's up to her to sever the horror and alter the Legend of Sleepy Hollow. Members Reviews: A twist on a classic tale. One of my favorite movies is Sleepy Hollow starring Johnny Depp. It is twisted and sick just the way I like things. This story is more of a romance with the headless horseman terrorizing the villagers. I enjoyed this story it was pretty good up until the ending, that part was a disappointment. The biggest draw of the story was who was controlling the headless horseman and while this story tells of how he came to be, the story had so much more potential that fell flat. Plus there were a lot of questions that were left unanswered. But for a book that was on sale it was worth the cost. Narrator was okay, she did fit the main character. Great twist on the Sleepy Hollow Story!!! I love all things Sleepy Hollow and this book was perfect! I found both Katrina and Ichabod characters to be my favorite yet of any version or story I've read. I felt the fear of the towns people and was sucked in to the book from the very beginning. This is my first book by Dax Varley but I love the style and character development so I'm an instant fan. Sofia did a great job narrating the book and I particularly liked her as Ichabod. I highly recommend this book. I did not see the ending credits coming! It's a great love story filled with paranormal romance, suspension and drama Rise Of The Headless Horseman? What did you like best about this story? I liked that it was a truly original take on this classic tale What does Sofia Willingham bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book? I was a bit annoyed at her mispronunciation of a few words that were used regularly (ie scythe) but overall Sofia Willingham's performance was pretty good. Her portayals of the characters were very interesting and lent a depth of emotion I am sure I would have missed had I just read the book. The terror she conveyed was palpable as was the menace from certain characters. Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting? No. I needed frequent breaks! The story was amazing but I can only take so much butchering of a frequently used word before I am yelling at an empty room. Too bad they can't go back and fix all instances of that one word... Then it would be amazing! Any additional comments? This series must be listened to (or read) in order. This is the first book. I can't wait to listen to the next one! Sleepy Hollow is a town unlike any other. It is plagued with hauntings of all kinds. There is the legendary Headless Horseman as well as many other more mundane ones. The wailing woman in white they resolved but many others they have not.

If you had a second chance at first love...would you take it? It's been three years since Mia walked out of Adams life. And three years hes spent wondering why. When their paths cross again in New York, Adam and Mia are brought back together for one life-changing night. Perfect for fans of John Green and David Levithan, Where She Went explores the devastation of grief, the promise of new hope, and the flame of rekindled romance. Members Reviews: A good elaboration for "If I stay". The start was surprising for where it was left previously. But,the end was kinda obvious. What happened after she stayed? Wow! From start to finish, totally drawn in and wow. Not only is the narration perfect but the story too. Intense, emotional and somehow riverting with beautiful simplicity. In the way this sequel is written, you experience everything from being in a new york diner to adams greif. I finished if i stay with all these unanswered questions and now have closure and can let it go. A must read sequel. Even better than the first book! If you've read "If I Stay" then you will absolutely love "Where She Went". It's so interesting seeing the progression with these characters and my main criticism (only criticism) is that I feel some parts of the book were a little rushed. This one could have been a bit longer and I feel it would have improved it's flow. But believe me, this is just an amazing book from start to finish in which Gayle Forman continues to be as poetically poignant as ever! better than the first book! rarely does a sequel overcome the original but I think it's one of these cases! the book is very sweet and from a very different prospective. it's what you expect but it's not and it's still surprising and sweet! definitely worth a read! loved this book excellent follow up to If i stay. had me enthralled from start to finish. have already listened to it twice.

Title: Wreckless Author: Bria Quinlan Narrator: Lisa Zimmerman Format: Unabridged Length: 5 hrs and 55 mins Language: English Release date: 05-02-17 Publisher: Bria Quinlan Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 3 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: Wreckless.... Where obsession and rebellion collide. Bridget Larson's never met a rule she didn't like. Drawing inside the lines isn't just a way of life - it's the only way she can make it through the day. And through it all her BFF, Leah, has stood inside the lines with her through the unspeakable. Then Bridget catches her boyfriend with Leah, and the last thing on her mind is staying safe. Salvation.... A bad boy and his jacked up pickup. Jake Moore was everything she needed and nothing he claimed to be. With one night of freedom and a spontaneously scribbled Rebellion List, Jake leads Bridget down every path she thought was forbidden...and into the one place she'd thought was lost to her forever. A YA romance by Golden Heart finalist Bria Quinlan Members Reviews: Something Special WRECKLESS holds a special place in my heart. It was the first book Ive ever read written by Bria Quinlan, and the start of my love for her stories. I know this book inside out and backwards. I can quote pretty much every other line, and have fallen for Jake Moore more times than I can count. I didnt think I could love this book anymore than I already do, and yet here I am in love once again. Hearing your favorite story come to life is incredibly special. Lisa Zimmermans take on Bridget & Jake absorbed me and wrapped me up in their story. I could picture every situation clearly and found myself smiling and laughing along as they spent their wreckless night. I truly truly enjoyed this rendition of my favorite story and will make sure to listen again and again. Worth the Wait Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? I've read this book multiple times and was anxiously awaiting its audiobook release. This was everything I was waiting for. The narrator nails Bridget's and Jake's voices. (The only drawback was her pitch for Rayla's voice. That one irritated me a bit and Rayla is anything but an irritating character.) Though this book covers some heavy topics (no spoilers), it has an overall lightness about it, which showcases Bria Quinlan's talent, and lets readers know that even if life feels impossible, laughter is still possible. LOVE IT. Sweet and rebellious The narration was perfect. It made this story real and I cannot imagine anyone else narrating this story. I have read a few of Bria's books - also the ones publish under Catie Quinn, which is why I cannot explain why it has taken me this long to finally get to Wreckless. I totally loved it. It's not the typical YA one would expect; it was real and heartbreaking and funny all in one. Catching up on high school in one evening is indeed something to accomplish and considering the amount of drama in high school, she pretty much did it. Did I say that I loved this? Yes, I think I did. Listen to my it yourself and love it too!

All About Romeo Audiobook by Suzanne D. Williams

Williams Narrator: Christy Crevier Format: Unabridged Length: 1 hr and 56 mins Language: English Release date: 01-23-14 Publisher: Suzanne D. Williams Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: "This is all about Romeo," he said. "I want to be the guy of your dreams, Aven. Me. Stupid Aaron Loving, who a week ago you couldnt stand, and who today, right now, you want to kiss you blind. When you decide thats who I am, that Im good enough, Ill be right here, waiting." Locked in the closet with Mr. Irritating, the last thing Aven Modell thought would happen was the kiss of the century. But she was wrong. Aaron Loving might be annoying, but locking lips with him was something shed never forget. Unfortunately, neither would he. Yet the Aaron who asks for math help isnt the same guy she knows at school, and her heart is not as certain as she thought. It could be where love is concerned that she has something important to learn. Another young adult romance from best-selling author, Suzanne D. Williams. Sometimes love comes when you least expect it. Members Reviews: Seven Minutes in Heaven... It all started with Seven Minutes in Heaven. Aven Modell had to kiss him--the most annoying, rich, stuck-up boy in the universe, Aaron Loving. After Aaron kissed Aven, he really does like her. He tries everything to get Aven's attention but nothing seems to work. Not until, the school's jock, Logan, asks Aven out. Now Aaron is more than determined to get Aven to notice him before their date on Friday, and the only way to do that is to ask for math help. Will Aaron get the girl of his dreams, or will Logan swoop her off her feet? This book was super short but had many emotions. Aaron is stuck-up and always talks about himself but there's a reason behind this; one so deep and true in life. But, I love Aaron. He's really sweet and what he did...was just...beautiful.Then there's Aven. Aven is a pretty & smart girl who hates Aaron but once she begins tutoring him, she sees him as a nice guy. However, when she sees him at school she tries to avoid him at all cost because what will that look like in school? Dating a stuck-up guy who most hate? Aven was scared to admit something she thought she couldn't feel but once she did, everything started coming together. The one thing I liked was that Suzanne (once again) mentioned saving sex for marriage and that men shouldn't pray to get the girl but to be the man they should be and I thought that was just great (no the book is not religious)! There are a lot of topics addressed in this story; love, bullying & peer-pressure, and Suzanne managed to put them all together in this one short novel. It had 6 chapters, 6 interesting, anxiety-filled chapters that kept me wanting more. This story turned out to be my favorite story by Suzanne and I hope, someday, to find my very own Aaron Loving. Excellent story Suzanne! Cute and clean romance As usual Suzanne Williams writes a fast read romance that you can learn from. They are safe to let your teen daughter read. Thanks Suzanne Good for a quick simple read... I admit that I am not normally a fan of this author but I enjoyed this book. It was sweet, simple and innocent. It was also very short so I was able to read it in an evening. It was a good book to pass the time with. clean romance clean, but kind of short Lessons of Life in a YA Romance There is so much that teenagers can take from this book! Be yourself, be honest, being mean will come back to get you and more. I would love to see this book on the teen reading list for 8th and 9th graders; maybe we would have less hate going on at the high school level.

Spells Audiobook by Aprilynne Pike

Title: Spells Subtitle: Laurel, Book 2 Author: Aprilynne Pike Narrator: Mandy Siegfried Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 38 mins Language: English Release date: 05-06-10 Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers Limited Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 47 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: A magical romance blossoms in the follow-up to WINGS, the bestselling novel described by Stephenie Meyer as "a remarkable debut". "I can't just storm in and proclaim my intentions. I can't 'steal' you away. I just have to wait, and hope that someday you'll ask," Tamani said. "And if I don't?" Laurel asked, her voice barely above a whisper. "Then I guess I'll be waiting forever." It's been almost a year since Laurel discovered that she is a faerie, placed with human parents as an infant to help protect the gateway to the faerie realm of Avalon. Although she's come to accept her true identity, Laurel refuses to turn her back on her human life-and especially her boyfriend, David-to return to the faerie world. But when she is summoned to Avalon to relearn her long-forgotten faerie magic, Laurel must depend on the charismatic faerie sentry Tamani. Her feelings for him are undeniable, and she is forced to make a choice-a choice that could break her heart. When a deadly enemy resurfaces and puts both Laurel's life and Avalon in danger, Laurel must draw on all her human strength as well as her faerie skills to save both of her worlds and all of those she holds dear. Critic Reviews: Mixing a little bit of Harry Potter and a lot of Twilight, Pike has hit on a winning combination. Yet it is her own graceful take on life inside Avalon that adds a shimmering patina sure to enthrall readers. (Booklist) Members Reviews: A Spellbinder. This book continues the story of Laurel, who suddenly grew a huge blue flower out of her back, just one of the things which told her she was a fairy. Not the kind of stuff for a fortyish woman to read, right? wrong! This is not a book for babies, but either for the young or the young at heart. In short, for anyone fascinated with the Faye, and who always wanted to be one, and wondered what it would be like. wonder no more. I liked this book better than its predecessor, as we saw the inside of the realm of Avalon, and Laurel's poignant struggle to reconcile her two worlds, and the two rather hot guys tugging at her heart. Personally, I think she chose the wrong one, but, there you go! All in all, with the well told, quick moving story, and the beautiful naration, I found this a lovely read, and can't wait for book three.

You Are So Undead to Me Audiobook by Jay Stacey

Title: You Are So Undead to Me Author: Jay Stacey Narrator: Jessica Almasy Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 15 mins Language: English Release date: 05-26-09 Publisher: Penguin Group USA and Audible Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 83 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: Megan Berry is a Zombie Settler by birth, which means she's part-time shrink to a whole bunch of semi-dead people with killer issues. All Megan really wants is to go to homecoming, but when you're trailed by a bunch of slobbering corpses whenever you leave the house, it's kinda hard to score a date. Let's just say Megan's love life could use some major resuscitation. Megan's convinced her life can't get any worse - until someone in school starts using black magic to turn average, angsty Undead into scary, hardcore flesh-eating Zombies. Now it's up to Megan to stop the Zombie apocalypse. Her life - and more importantly, the homecoming dance - depends on it. Members Reviews: Pleasantly Surprised Because this book is priced so low and lacked any reviews, I was reluctant to spend the money. But I am so glad I did. This is a really good YA zombie book. It has a good plot, is interesting, and funny. I don't know if the author plans on writing a sequel/series based on this character, because she easily could, but if not the story ends in a good place and left me satisfied (I plan on purchasing more books written by this author in the future). About the narrator: I think they got the right narrator for the book. She's got the right voice for a teenage girl and the performance is golden. Overall, this audiobook is well worth the cost. Jay Stacey, NOT Stacey Jay Got this book despite the plot sounding less than ideal for my tastes because I've enjoyed Stacey Jay books. Don't get mixed up like I did - this is Jay Stacey! Silly mistake. This book was entertaining for a YA book, but sooooo annoying when the main character constantly makes the same mistakes over and over again (eg "Im the only one in the world that can solve this problem and I shouldn't discuss it with anyone else first"). I could hardly stand to finish it. Cute Story! This book definitely captured the tumultuous feelings of adolescence. I did not expect much from this book, but I was definitely surprised. I fell into the drama surrounding Megan's crush, and was brought back to my own high school experience. I'm giving this book 4 stars because there was excessive character descriptions that seemed unnecessary and only functioned as filler. All in all, this is a great listen for readers of any age. Fun and Easy This is a fun zombie gore fest/ queen-bee mean girl coming of age story. Its also funny and heartwarming . . . somehow. . . great amusing read loved the book - amusing - narrator suited the character wonderfully. Although I don't think I would want my teen to read this book - more of an adult book

He's also very smart. But he's working pretty hard at being a juvenile delinquent. He blows off school, even though he's a secret reader. He hangs with his cousins, who will always back him up - when they aren't in jail. Then along comes Lupe, who makes his blood race. She sees something in Eddie he doesn't even see in himself. A heart, and a mind, and something more: a poet. But in Eddie's world, it's a thin line between tragedy and glory. And what goes down is entirely in Eddie's hands. Gripping, thought-provoking, and hopeful, Muchacho is a rare and inspiring story about one teen's determination to fight his circumstances and shape his own destiny. Members Reviews: Perfect for my students I teach incarcerated juveniles and this was the perfect book to read with them. It is full of true to life experiences that my students can relate to and learn from. The author definitely knows the ups and downs of students who experience issues that can have lifelong consequences. I also appreciated the author's study guide that goes with this. I used parts of it--journals are a great way to get kids thinking. Love it This was a great book. The locations they talk about are real. Other than Truth or Consequences, they do not mention other cities he lived in. I know they are real though cuz I lived there. Those places really exist. His story is not unique to many Latino youth, which is unfortunate. This book is a window into a world most gringitos never know. Muchacho is reaching our at-risk Latino students We continue to get great response from our eleventh grade reading lab students to Muchacho; I wish we'd taken before and after pictures of them when they were working on their state tests - I have NEVER seen such a dramatic attitude change in students. Several mentioned, in interviews two weeks ago, that they had finally put the reading pieces together while reading this book...it was wonderful to hear. Teachers didn't understand, at first, how the book would reach students, because most of us don't come from the same place as our students, but now that they've heard the rich discussion, and have seen the students' level of engagement, teachers are reading the book differently, as well. book great book for my Latino students and other ESL students. Good subject matter. good for high school library to have. life changing book This book is great I loved it so much I'm only 15 and in highschool and the same thing happened I was a juvenile in training and I fall in love with this girl who changes my thoughts about everything

As Ruth throws herself into her London life, Quin begins to fall desperately in love with her. Things are further complicated by the arrival of Heini.... Members Reviews: a warm bubble bath I don't know why Eva Ibbotson is under the category of "younger readers" in book shops- her stories just a lovely bit of escapism without any gratuitous sex or bad language or violence, which adults can enjoy every bit as much as younger readers and are as soothing to the soul as a warm bubble bath! just wish it wasn't abridged, so 1 less star because it just wasn't long enough!

Loved having a male & female doing the correct voices instead of one doing it all!!!

Everything Ada does is wrong. She's the daughter of a duke but she isn't proper or formal. She prefers the company of her servants - particularly Christian, the boy she's loved since she was six-years-old, and his sister, Charity, Ada's very best friend in the entire world. Ada isn't just the daughter of a duke. No, she's the daughter of one of the most powerful Edren sorcerers alive, and no matter how strong she is, it isn't strong enough. Ada will give up almost everything to earn her father's pride. Christian has loved Ada since the day his mother became her governess. But two societies are determined to keep them apart - the aristocracy who say a groom will never be good enough for a duke's beautiful daughter, and the sorcerers who say a Carules and an Edren can never be together. Christian will do anything to make Ada his - even drive himself to madness. When Ada suspects her father of hurting Charity and Christian in his quest for knowledge, she is torn between loyalty to him and a fierce determination to protect them. The division tears her soul and breaks her heart. The pieces of her broken heart will start a war that can only be stopped by the death of the most powerful warrior alive by the hand of the boy who loves her. Members Reviews: Worth the wait, sorry it ended. I have been waiting for this. I love the series and was excited to learn that there would indeed be a prequel which would fill my need to know what started the war that lasted over 300 years. This book was worth the wait. Knowing how things turned out I did not think that I would feel differently about the characters that I knew were the cause for the war. Wendy Knight made me fall in love with them just the way she did with Ari, Shane, Hunter, Will and Chairty. This story is amazing written, the battle scenes were amazing as well. I do not want to give anything away but be prepared to lose your heart and to stay awake all nigh reading this because you will fall in love with these characters and will not want to put the book down Wow! I seriously LOVE everything Wendy puts out, and this one is no exception! A great look at the beginning of a huge war that affected the main characters in her original break out series Feudlings. This book lives up to the legacy she started building with her first book and as a bonus gives a short story at the end to give all of them closer. Way to go Wendy! Keep pumping out the hits! great story I just found this series and was sad that it was over, but then I was told there was a prequel. It was interesting to find out how the war between the Edrens and Carules really began. Watching the things Ada, Christian and Charity had to go through, the way they were tortured made me cry. The short story at the end of the book was great! I loved it. I will read this again. I waited I have to admit, I waited on this one. I'd read and enjoyed the other books in this series, but I bought this one and waited a long while before I read it. I shouldn't have, it was very good. It stands alone, and I wanted to then go back and read the other books again. As a prequel, I would recommend reading it first, before the other Fate of Fire books. My favorite of the series! I loved this book! It is very well written and gives you great insight into the world of Feudlings.

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 26 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: In the exciting final installment of the Lost Voices trilogy, mermaid Luce swims to the San Francisco Bay where she finds a group of renegade mermaids who become an army under her leadership when war breaks out between humans and mermaids. Mermaids have been sinking ships and drowning humans for centuries, and now the government is determined to put an end to the mermaid problem - by slaughtering them all. Luce, a mermaid with exceptionally threatening abilities, becomes their number-one target, hunted as she flees down the coast toward San Francisco. There she finds hundreds of mermaids living in exile under the docks of the bay. They are the Twice Lost: once-human girls lost first when a trauma turned them into mermaids and lost a second time when they broke mermaid law and were rejected by their tribes. Luce is stunned when they elect her as their leader. But she wont be their queen. Shell be their general. And they will become the Twice Lost Army - because this is war. Members Reviews: You Won't Stop Thinking About It For a Long Time The first two books in the "Lost Voices" Trilogy have been among my favourites, but I wasn't prepared for just how much Book 3 would up the ante in every conceivable way. In a literary wasteland of too many vampires, werewolves, witches and angels a series featuring mermaids is a welcome departure, but there's so much more to say about it than that. From the somewhat insular and melancholy tone of the first two books, "The Twice Lost" suddenly takes Luce and the entire world into a state of war. Quite honestly the sheer scope of the story about the war between mermaids and humans left me reeling! I don't want to include spoilers so I will simply say that "The Twice Lost" is a harrowing, triumphant, heartbreaking, exhilarating conclusion to the trilogy and left me crying both in sorrow and in joy half a dozen times throughout. I'm not sure how I felt about the ending, but it is open enough that it leaves me hopeful of a further venture into Luce's world and if not, then there is plenty of room to imagine whatever future for Luce that we wish. I can't recommend this book highly enough.

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 5 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: This is not the time for the fight to end. Now is when the fight will begin. This is the time to regain what has been lost. Alera Queen of a fallen kingdom, secretly in love with the enemy. Shaselle Daughter of a murdered father, rebel with a cause. One lives behind the former Hytanican palace walls and walks the razor's edge to keep the fragile peace in her beloved homeland. The other slips through the war-torn streets, seeking retribution for her family's tragedy, following whispers of insurgency. Both face choices that will separate them from those they cannot help but love. As their stories intertwine, a conspiracy ignites that may end in slavery or death - or lead to freedom anew, if only each can face what must be sacrificed. Members Reviews: Not quite there I'm not really sure how I feel about Sacrifice. Was it a good book? Yes. Was it engaging? Yes. But things were missing, and I didn't find myself enjoying Sacrifice as much as I had hoped. First, the romance. In the previous two books, I felt it. I was swooning as much as Alera was. In Sacrifice, I didn't feel it. Sure, Kluver told me about how amazing Narian was and how sweet, but she didn't show me like she did in the previous books. I feel like there needs to be more than kissing to make me fall in love, and that's really all I got from Alera and Narian's romance. There was some swooning in this book, but it didn't last as long as I wished it would. I could have handled a flat romance, if the rest of the story was spectacular. Unfortunately, it felt like there was a lot of build up to something that wasn't fully explained. I wanted to know more about that last battle. I wanted to know how things went down. I felt like 85% of the book was leading up to this epic battle, and then nothing. There was summary, but nothing of the actual action. I guess that's how I feel about the entire novel, though. Legend and Allegiance were fantastic build up to Sacrifice, while fell short of what I was expecting. It felt like more of a middle novel, lots of little things happened, and one or two large things happened, but it didn't feel like its own novel. Plus, the ending wrapped up a little too fast. I would have loved having the last 10% of the novel expanded. Sacrifice wasn't a bad book, but it didn't live up to the caliber the first two novels had set. It's a fine novel, but I wanted something more and it just wasn't there. Hurray! Love how it all ends! Cover love! This is the most PERFECT cover! This girl actually looks like my Alera ( you know the one I picture in my head) Love the dress. Can't wait for the book to be in my greedy little hands and devouring it's pages.:D Alera, Narian, Steldor, London, Cannon and Shaselle, Yay they are all in the final book to this amazing series. I was so glad to see Narian back in full force commanding Hytanican with Alera by his side. Narian is just so wise and smart beyond his years. Steldor is back in all of his awe inspiring glory and chilvary, he is so easy on my reading eyes, lol. My heart still goes out to the man, he is perfect! London we all love him don't we. He is so brave, and loves his country and fellow country man, and is always willing to go to great lengths for them to keep them a sovereign country. Shaselle is always finding trouble she is a great character.

Heather Reiner has always felt like an outsider. And she doesn't have a normal afterschool job, either. That's because she's got amazing psychic abilities that help the police, well, mostly Detective Tanner, track down dangerous criminals. Heather has no choice but to embrace her gift of second sight when her visions take a dangerous turn by revealing a government corruption. And if that weren't bad enough, Heather learns that a local college student is missing, too. When Heather tells Detective Tanner about her psychic intuition, he asks for her help solving the two seemingly unrelated cases. Yet the hostile police chief is convinced she's a major fraud, and Heather doesn't trust him. With the help of Tanner and her hot new boyfriend, Heather decides to stop the criminals before they set their diabolical plan into motion. Unfortunately, this also makes her a prime target. But nothing could've prepared Heather for what she'll have to face if she hopes to solve the mystery, or the potentially fatal consequences if she doesn't.... Members Reviews: OMGosh for the Ending - What a Jaw Dropper In the last book, a vision bothered Heather because those involved were highly ranked members of the community. In this book, she has a further vision which actually hits closer to home. Heather is beginning to become settled in her new home, as is her mother. Her mother has met someone who puts a smile on her face. In a stunning turn of events, Barry walks away from Heather. Although everyone assures Heather she has done nothing wrong, she is heartbroken and bereft. Over the course of two days, Heather's life goes from bad, to worse, to bad, then a major change, which finally makes Heather smile. Then Heather answers the door . . . Absorbing Psychic Paranormal YA Yarn The author did a great job taking her writing to the next level with this installment. The relationship between the two teens, our heroine and her boyfriend, matures, bringing with it deeper emotional challenges for both. Learning to balance co-dependence with independence for one. Not to mention figuring out how to ride out the even wilder emotional rollercoaster ride that teen hormones send one on when amplified ever further by love. But the two teens also walk into increasing danger in this installment as our heroineâs psychic abilities become more public and are put in the service of the police. The psychic impressions drawing her into a new mystery in the sequel draw her towards political scandal and highly connected people who are far more dangerous still than some deranged killer that we encountered in the first novel. Here is calculated, cold, cunning evil that plots many moves ahead and so can do much more damage than a psychopath acting impulsively. As if that werenât danger enough. Our heroine continues to juggle an impossible number of balls in the air. First, thereâs life at high school, which is emotionally trying on a good day, far less when youâre a âfreakâ by normal peopleâs standards. And the religious nut jobs in town are up in arms against anyone with her psychic abilities, branding her a witch, and making it impossible for her to go anywhere in public.

But almost immediately, Cyn starts to sense that something about Mr. Gabriel isnt quite right. Maybe its the creepy look in the librarians (literally) mesmerizing eyes, or the weird feeling Cyn gets whenever shes around him, or the blood and horns and giant bat-like wings that appear when he thinks no one is looking. Before long, Cyn realizes that Mr. Gabriel is, in facta demon. Now, in addition to saving her beloved school musical (Sweeney Todd!) from technical disaster and avoiding making a complete fool of herself with her own hopeless crush (who happens to be the only other person who knows the truth about Mr. Gabriel), Cyn has to save her best friend from the attractive-yet-very-very-bad clutches of the evil librarian, who has not only bewitched Annie but also seems to be slowly sucking the life force out of the entire student body! Members Reviews: A fabulous, and funny YA paranormal Would you listen to Evil Librarian again? Why? Yes! It's a great story and the witty dialogue and overall humor make it such a fun book! It's definitely worth a repeat listen. What other book might you compare Evil Librarian to and why? While I can't think of a particular book right now, the paranormal storyline and snarky humor remind me of the early seasons of Buffy The Vampire Slayer (in style and overall feel, not that the characters or stories are similar.) What about Emily Fosters performance did you like? I'm new to audiobooks and have been disappointed with many samples I've tried, but she did a great job. I prefer dual narrators for male and female voices but she was able to do well with all of them and I found her very easy to listen to (and NOT annoying to me at all.;) Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? I loved the dialogue which was very humorous and Cyn's inner dialogue had me laughing quite often. Any additional comments? I highly recommend this book if you are looking for an overall fun and humorous book with a paranormal theme. (There are some curse words but they did not seem out of place being spoken by high school students. If a few here and there bother you, just be aware they are there.;) I thoroughly enjoyed this book and will definitely check out more titles from this author and narrator. Who knew? Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not? At 3.0 speed listening it wasn't too bad. What could Michelle Knudsen have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you? I'd have wished for a little more reality; or maybe it is reality as some of us did not know. Some day I wish someone could write a American school story that has, um, education in it; maybe some interaction with real adults other than demons; maybe social interactions other than boy-stalking. Credit for at least having a school activity as part of the plot - being stage manager for a cannibalistic school play. How Cynthia could cram all the demon-fighting action into an otherwise hectic countdown to showtime is amazing.

When Darby meets Torin as a fellow counselor at the survival camp she impulsively applies to, shes certain his main goal is to turn her world upside down, with his disheveled curly hair, irresistible dimples, and endearingly quirky habit of reciting quotes from classic movies and ancient thinkers. Darbys not sure she can adapt to Torins way of viewing his past and the tragedies he's faced. Because shes had her own share of heartache too, and as much as she wants to believe that its all been for a purpose, she hasnt been able to move on. Yet the more time Darby spends with Torin, the more she longs to break free of her carefully constructed routine and fall into something new. Shes just not sure that she should be falling for Torin along the way. Members Reviews: Complex "The Rules of Regret" is centered around the philosophy of 2 young adults (age 19/20). They come from 2 different worlds. They meet at summer camp. They are 2 of the counselors at an intense program for troubled teens. Darby will be a Junior at Stanford University in the fall. She applies for the job to earn money. Torin, is the son of the Camp Directors/Owners & has grown up living in the mountains. I loved these characters & their intense interaction with each other. I would be careful about recommending

Title: Feudlings in Sight Subtitle: Fate on Fire, Book 3 Author: Wendy Knight Narrator: Lisa Hicks Format: Unabridged Length: 2 hrs and 9 mins Language: English Release date: 04-24-17 Publisher: Clean Reads Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: Boys of war suck at romance. Charity Delyle has lived in the shadow of her Prodigy cousin and his powerful Guard since the day she was born. And she doesn't mind - really. Except that being in Hunter's shadow means that he can't see her. And she'd like that to change. Hunter has one purpose in life: Protect the Prodigy, or die trying. That means a social life, school, and even Charity come last until the war is over. For the most part, he's okay with that - he can lose everything if he has to...except his seer. Starting at a new school should be much safer than living in a war-ravaged Carules headquarters. But this new school is different than the others. Friendships are forged and destinies are questioned, and Hunter's decision could cost them all everything they've been hoping for. Members Reviews: A great teaser! Feudlings in Sight gives the reader a small taste of Charity and her perspective into the war, her gift, and her love for Hunter. But what it ALSO gives us, is a glimpse into Hunter's feelings for Charity. I appreciated getting to know Hunter more, and learn that his feelings have a longer history that is really revealed in Feudlings. I loves these characters, especially as a blossoming couple! The story was short, but cleared up some questions, and kept me wanting more. The story is well written. I'm anxious for more! Keep up the good work! Enlightening This short story is very enlightening. It takes us to a couple of years before Shane, Hunter and Charity meet Ari. It was interesting to hear from Hunter as well as see some family dynamics and Hunter's loyalty to Shane and how far duty goes for him. A very nice companion to help round out the characters. Excellent! I really enjoyed reading this short novel. It was nice to learn more about Shane, Charity and especially Hunter. My teenage daughter also loved the book. I appreciated the clean language as well. Could easily have been a missing chapter from the book This is a very short, quick read. It gives some background on Charity and Hunter. I would recommend reading it before the other Feudlings book; as it does take place prior to the other books. It is more of a quick background, than anything and could easily have been added more as a chapter in one of the books; granted it may have been out of place since it focused on Charity and Hunter, and not Ari & Shane. I enjoyed the fuedling series, which is the only reason I picked this book up. I don't think that it really adds nor takes away from the story. It is not something you have to read to understand the characters. I like completion and that is why I read it, but after reading it , realized I could have done without it as well. The author writes well and I think this could be viewed a bit like an appetizer. Very good Perfect interlude between the first and second book! All through the book though I was waiting for the introduction of Ari totally forgetting that this book is set in their first year of school and she doesn't arrive until their final year! But ya really good! Starting to love this series!

The Invisible Audiobook by Amelia Kahaney

Title: The Invisible Subtitle: Brokenhearted, Book 2 Author: Amelia Kahaney Narrator: Rebecca Gibel Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 49 mins Language: English Release date: 10-07-14 Publisher: HarperAudio Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 4 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: The most dangerous enemy is the one you can't see.... After a perilous accident that literally stopped her heart, Anthem Fleet was left with a jagged scar down the front of her chest - and a strength she is still learning to control. Her new powers helped her avenge the death of the boy she loved and led her deep into Bedlam City's dark underbelly, where she fought a network of shadowy criminals. But Anthem doesn't want to be the crime-fighting vigilante that Bedlam needs. She just wants to go to school, practice ballet, and help nurse Ford, her friend and partner, back to health. But when a mysterious group called the Invisible starts attacking the privileged North Siders, Anthem's whole world is thrown into chaos. Invisible's threats seem like harmless pranks at first, but as their demands escalate, people start to die. Now Anthem must step up and be the hero that the city needs, or Bedlam will fall - once and for all. In the riveting sequel to the critically acclaimed The Brokenhearted, reimagined superhero Anthem Fleet takes on a powerful new villain and makes startling revelations about her past that will change her forever. Members Reviews: Anthem continues her journey Nice to follow our character through her next adventure. Not as tight or feasible as the first novel. But still enjoyable. Stunning imagery Amelia Kahaney's THE INVISIBLE does what you hope all sequels will do: improve upon the predecessor. If THE BROKENHEARTED is the origin story, then THE INVISIBLE is where the series-proper starts. (Unfortunately, a third novel wasn't contracted.) Anthem Fleet's chimerical heart and ballet skills are well needed to defeat The Invisible, a secret organisation kidnapping children from rich families in order to raise money for the poor part of Bedlam. The wealthy side of town was built to literally raise them above the damaged side, so that flooding wouldn't inconvenience the cashed-up. THE INVISIBLE sees Anthem confronting her own economic privilege. The well-off have to actually lose something, such as a child, before they'll consider donating half their fortune to aid worthy causes low down. Amelia Kahaney writes THE INVISIBLE with stunning imagery. The scene where Anthem watches skyscrapers collapse, not knowing if her Tower will fall next, is genuinely thrilling. I was surprised to discover that I'd rated the first book in the series only two stars. THE INVISIBLE is worth double that. 3.5 stars Why you should read it: The premise behind this series is interesting, and I enjoyed reading The Brokenhearted and The Invisible. Granted, the heroine does really dumb things often (don't leave video evidence or a trail behind you!) and doesn't get a disguise (classic Superhero 101), but the story is fun. I like Anthem a lot better in this book than the first. She is a little more hesitant when it comes to Ford (thank you!) and a little bit smarter. You'll either love this book or not. If you suspend disbelief, you can have fun with Anthem.

Emotionally rich, filled with fascinating detail about life on the Boardwalk, this is David Lubar's breakthrough novel. ©2002 David Lubar; (P)2003 Full Cast Audio Critic Reviews: "Dunk grips readers from the very first sentence and doesn't let go until the last." (School Library Journal) "Dunk confirms Lubar's growing stature as an author of distinctive, intriguing, and highly original young adult fiction." (Voice of Youth Advocates) Members Reviews: Great Book I found this book very enjoyable. Hearing the book with a full cast really brought it to life. The main character reminded me of when I was 15 and really brought back lots of memories for me. I highly recomend this book to young and old alike. Great Listening For Ages 10+ My son, age 10, and I enjoyed this very much. The cast audio makes this story come to life. Beautifully written This book is appealing on many levels. The narrator is a deep, but compelling character that exposes the vulnerable side of adolescence that we all experience at some point in life. The need to make our own decisions, but to learn from others around us is a recurring theme in this sometimes humorous, always touching book. First loves, support of parents and the desire for greatness are all seen in this well written and always enjoyable walk down the boardwalk during a summer of growth and maturing. the audio makes it come alive Good story based as much rich characters as on the plot of the story. It is well read and this in itself will help it hold the attention of the younger audience.

Aunque también es verdad que si vas a tener un enemigo número uno, mejor que sea como Cole: alto, buenorro como hay pocos y con unos ojos azules que tiran para atrás. Sí, es verdad, ha sido el tormento de Tessa desde que eran pequeños: le ha puesto motes, se ha metido con su manera de hablar, de andar y hasta de respirar.

Welcome to Belle Mère, the most exclusive zip code outside the Las Vegas Strip. It's every sinner's fantasy and every good parent's worst nightmare. Emma Southerly doesn't belong at Belle Mère Prep despite her new stepfather's money. Not after she shunned her invite to the popular table, and especially not after what happened last summer. So when her best friend begs her to crash an invite-only end-of-the-year party, she should say no with a capitol H-E-L-L. It's just a party. What could go wrong? Getting kicked out to start. Running into the man who destroyed your family. Everything. Until she meets Jamie, who's also hiding from the in crowd. After spending the night with the cute stranger, Emma barely makes it home before news hits Belle Mère's brunch tables. A body's been found on the West estate, and Jamie is the number one suspect. But he couldn't have done it...right? Emma isn't sure she can trust him or the rest of Belle Mère. After all, no one is safe when everyone is a liar. Members Reviews: Superb! This book like all the others book from Geneva Lee is just perfect! The love story the suffering, the inconveniences and the way that story develops it makes it hard no to fall and the get hooked all the way! I need more Interesting storyline Would you consider the audio edition of Gilt: By Invitation Only to be better than the print version? I did not read the print version. What did you like best about this story? The plot was great. Very unique. Which scene was your favorite? The scene in the pool. Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you? Getting the backstory on the sister was pretty intense. Not bad but could be better I'm really disappointed with this book. I had really high hopes for it. I just don't feel the high school love/suspense. It's all a bit too immature. I think it would have been a lot better if it had been more matured characters. I also feel cheated that this series had to be dragged out in 3 books. I think 2 would have been fair. With regards to the narrator, I don't think she was great. I'd say average . I've listened to worse. I just wish authors would choose narrators carefully. It does ruin a great story. Sometimes I wasn't sure if it was a male or female voice. It just felt rushed. I expected a lot better than this.

High in her tower above Bedlam City, prima ballerina Anthem Fleet has lived her whole life by her parents' strict rules, never leaving the sparkling, pristine North Side. Until she meets Gavin. An artist from the dangerous South Side of town, Gavin is like no one Anthem has ever met - and she falls for him suddenly and completely. But Gavin's world is as dangerous as it is intoxicating, and their romance crashes down around them one terrible night when they are attacked on the South Side and Gavin is kidnapped. When she wakes in a dark, blood-soaked lab, Anthem has a jagged scar down her chest...and an experimental bionic heart ticking inside her. As Anthem will soon realize, her new mechanical heart didn't just save her life - it left her with a strange and terrifying new strength. A strength that she's going to need if she has any chance of rescuing Gavin and mending the scattered pieces of her broken heart. Members Reviews: Well written and exciting I was instantly blown away by the quality of writing. Kahaney's beautiful prose are deliciously awe inspiring. The story is lots of fun, brimming with sinister baddies and off-beat heroes. The main character is a little annoying, but to her credit, she's been through a lot. I loved the action packed tale of vengeance, but found my interest waning in the last 3rd of the book. That said, I'd highly recommend it, and eagerly await the sequel! pretty good This book intrigued me enough to stick around for the rest of the series. It was somewhat predictable, and I'm pretty sure I see the plot lines of the next few books already...however, I'll read them. Overall, it was an enjoyable read. Fast and furious read Great story - surprising and fun and engaging. Didn't want to put it down! I loved it. A couple of nice twists thrown in ... It kind of starts out slow but then man, does it pick up. I loved it. A couple of nice twists thrown in to keep you guessing Amazing! Amazing !

After surviving being kidnapped by a vampire, Faith would just love to focus on some alone time with her hot (though occasionally furry) boyfriend, Lucas. Unfortunately, with a vampire uprising on the horizon and her best friend, Derek, about to wake up and find himself transformed into a half-werewolf, half-vampire being without a beating heart, Faith has a few other things to take care of first. Faith is not without help, in the form of her newfound powers of sensing peoples emotions and being able to influence werewolves actions, not to mention her begrudging but rather helpful boyfriend. Even so, convincing a werewolf packmaster to prepare for an epic battle may be difficult to do without solid evidence. Lose yourself once more in the deliciously suspenseful world of werewolves versus vampires, otherworldly boys with deadly charm, and addictive, spine-tingling action and romance! Members Reviews: Argh I NEED Argh I NEED THE NEXT BOOK NOW!!! I am loving this series!! Rebecca Gibel DID A GOOD JOB NARRATING!! Really good! Romantic and exciting! I was surprised by the elaborated developement of the characters. Also the fantasy story was profound with twists and turns. i really enjoyed the book. It was even better than the first book. I heard the whole book in only one day. Looking forward to other books of the author. Pleasantly Surprised I thought the 21 year old author did an awesome job thinking this world up with Vampires and Werewolfs that are used so often in books, and It didnt make me think of Twilight through the entire 2 books, maybe at the beginning cause I think any Vampire book written after Twilight is automatically going to be compared to by Twilight lovers from now on.. She had great characters, with lots of issues that young adults really deal with like friendships, sex, drugs, peer pressure, partying, clubing, drinking too much and dealing with the Crazy ex's, but with the added killer Vampires and falling in love with Werewolfs.. I loved how the Werewolfs are the Immortal keepers of the humans from the Vampires, and are all around the world in packs to keep us safe by finding Vampire lairs.. Im excited for the 3rd book..

Title: Dreamers Often Lie Author: Jacqueline West Narrator: Kyla Garcia Format: Unabridged Length: 10 hrs and 22 mins Language: English Release date: 04-05-16 Publisher: Blackstone Audio, Inc. Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 5 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: Liar meets Romeo and Juliet in this Shakespeare-inspired young adult novel about trusting yourself when everyone is telling you your instincts are wrong. Jaye wakes up in the hospital, disoriented and beset by a slippery morphing of reality into something else. She repeatedly sees a boy whom she feels like she knows - but that's impossible. Determined to get back to school and back to A Midsummer Night's Dream, in which she's starring, she lies to her sister, her mom, and her doctors - she's fine, she says. She's fine, she's fine, she's fine. But then on her first day back, she takes a seat in class next to the mysterious boy. Queasy with anxiety ("I can't see you," she hisses at him, "because you're not really here"), Jaye realizes this boy is, in fact, real. And he has no idea what she's talking about. Caught between this fascinating, empathetic new kid and her childhood friend turned recent love interest, Jaye begins to notice unnerving similarities between her circumstances and those of some of Shakespeare's most famous plays. Tingling banter and clandestine meet-ups give way to darker, muddier incidents. As things escalate to a frightening pitch, how much of what's happening is real, how much is in Jaye's head, and how much does it matter as she's hurtling toward a fateful end over which she seems to have no control? Members Reviews: I dream of Dreamers As with all of West's work the book features a mix of excellent characterization, vivid scenery, and elegant prose. Dreamers Often Lie is definitely one of her best works although her entire bibliography is astonishingly solid. The story itself beautifully whisks you away on a journey of the mind (and in the mind) through the eyes of Jaye Stewart, a "drama geek" recovering from of head injury which leaves her with occasional visions of William Shakespeare himself as well as some of his characters. As the story progresses you begin questioning what is real and what is not. I don't often review books for one reason or another but I felt compelled to on this one. I am so rarely drawn into a story this deeply and the level of complexity of this story has led me to begin reading the book a second time already. If that isn't a seal of approval I don't know what is. This book is, in a word, awesome. Loved it! I loved this book! I was immediately drawn into the life of Jaye, the main character, who has suffered a brain injury and has started having visions of Shakespearean characters. Don't worry if you're not familiar with Shakespeare and/or his characters. You will still love this story. The author really only includes Shakespearean characters with whom most people are familiar. I have not been drawn into a book like I was with this one in a very long time. Give it a read. You will not be disappointed. West's lyrical writing is fantastic, as are the humor she inserts occasionally.

It was always meant to be Olivia. She's the talented one, the one who's been training to be a star her whole life. Her best friend, Dana, is the levelheaded one, always on the sidelines, cheering Olivia on. But everything changes when Dana tags along with Olivia to Orlando for the weekend, where superproducer Guy Monroe is holding auditions for a new singing group, and Dana is discovered, too. Dana, who's never sung more than Olivia's backup. Dana, who wasn't even looking for fame. Next thing she knows, she and Olivia are training to be pop stars, and Dana is falling for Alex, the earnest, endlessly talented boy who's destined to be the next big thing. It should be a dream come true, but as the days of grueling practice and constant competition take their toll, things between Olivia and Dana start to shift...and there's only room at the top for one girl. For Olivia, it's her chance at her dream. For Dana, it's a chance to escape a future that seems to be closing in on her. And for these lifelong best friends, it's the adventure of a lifetime - if they can make it through. Set in evocative 1990s Orlando, Fireworks brings to life the complexity of friendship, the excitement of first love, and the feeling of being on the verge of greatness. Members Reviews: Straight Down Memory Lane Every once in a while you read a book that just checks all the boxes. Characters who you fall in love with, even though they're not perfect. Check. A love story that doesn't consume the entirety of the story - plus the perfect book boyfriend. Check Check. (Holy crap do I love Alex) A setting that you can insert yourself in. Check. Don't let the 90s setting throw off the fact that this is very much a YA (but today's popstars are made on YouTube, not auditioned like back in my day). The 90s don't bog down the story; it's still fun to live in that era for a bit, though. This book was a ball of sweetness and is guaranteed to get you out of any slump. If you don't end up smiling, you're surely a monster. It's out now so I want to hear all your thoughts about it. That's all I'm going to say because I want to take us down memory lane for a bit. I've loved all of Katie Cotugno's books I've loved all of Katie Cotugno's books, but this one was definitely the most fun. 90's girl groups and boy bands? Yes, please!! Five Stars :) another solid ya contemporary from katie cotugno well, first off, Katie Cotugno has done it again-she managed to simultaneously leave me annoyed & frustrated while still wanting more. i just finished reading this book earlier today, and iâm still reeling from the way it ended. itâs not the fact that the ending was left open ended, as this is Katieâs usual fashion & something that iâve grown to expect (& not totally hate) when it comes to her books, but more so about the conclusion that was actually reached in regards to something major happening in the story. even though i saw it coming from a mile away, it still managed to not only sucker punch me right in the face, but left me shaking because i was so angry at one of the characters.

TV marathons, and Starbucks keep Penny sane. Until they don't. Even paddle boards, bonfires, and bikinis won't help Penny escape her reoccurring nightmare. When Penny meets Delsin everything changes. Each morning she comes to meet him, handing over pieces of her heart. But when Penny is confronted with her worst nightmare, Delsin asks for a sacrifice she didn't see coming. Members Reviews: Reoccurring Nightmare! I've listened to almost every audio that Anya Monroe has available on Audible. I have come to enjoy Anya's stories and I look forward to listening to more stories author Anya Monroe writes. I must say that because I don't care for reading that I guess I'll have to wait for her to add more of her stories to Audible. I had problems with the lead character Penny as a started the story but as I continued to listen to the story I realized why she acted the way she did. I really liked her best friend Oliver, who happened to be gay but he was a very dedicated friend to Penny. This story was intriguing, unique, I felt it was mysterious, and filled with some twists and turns. Miranda Stewart had a smooth and soothing voice although I didn't care for the voice that the narrator used when Penny was thinking to herself. I haven't heard this particular narrator before and her voice was a somewhat a bit monotone at times but with some more work Miranda Stewart could be a great narrator. I give the author Anya a perfect 5 stars but I have to give the narrator 4 stars for the way she worked her equipment and how it sounded fake at times. I still highly recommend that you should give this story a listen, you won't regret it. Unsuspecting Story Would you listen to The Dream Catcher again? Why? Maybe, I don't generally re-read, listen, or watch something more than once. If, I didn't have anything else to occupy my mind I would probably listen again. Who was your favorite character and why? Penny/Penelope, Her character takes you from a selfish teen only thinking of herself to experiencing trauma, to discovering her self and growing from it. What does Miranda Stewart bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book? Her tone is like in a scary movie or dramatic movie where the music keys you in that something is about to happen so pay attention. Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? Yes, the ending was so unexpected and heartbreaking that put me in a state of shock.

When he has no luck finding some goth chick with a vampire fetish, he resorts to sucking the blood of cows under cover of the night. But it's just not the same. Then he meets the new Indian exchange student and falls for her - hard. Yeah, he wants to bite her, but he also wants to prove himself to her. But like the laws of life, love, and high school, the laws of vampire existence are complicated - it's not as easy as studying Dracula. Especially when the star of Vampire Hunters is hot on your trail in an attempt to boost ratings. Searing, hilarious, and always unexpected, Fat Vampire is a satirical tour de force from one of the most original writers of fiction today. Critic Reviews: "The multi-talented author Adam Rex uses offbeat humor and outrageous scenarios to position this underdog for paranormal greatness." (Amazon.com review) Members Reviews: I had to give up... I like coming of age stories. I also happen to like teenage vampires trying to live with their condition. This...was terrible. The reader sounded like he didn't want to be there, and, after listening to the story, yeah, I can totally understand why. Typically, I give a book halfway through it before I give up on it, but, man, this was a struggle. The story is one of those were nothing really happens. While I enjoy Slice-of-life stores this is more of a slice-of-death, and not in the entertaining way either. Take my advice, instead of getting this Try something like the Reformed Vampires' Support Group. At least things HAPPEN while they're busy being miserable.

But a secret from Nick's past draws them together and makes the year Nick McGowan came to stay one that Rachel will never forget. Critic Reviews: "[A] richly creative tale full of humor and funny situations related with a touch of reminiscence." (Daily Telegraph, Australia) Members Reviews: Cute book I liked the book but, it was way to short. It left me needing more. Pleasant Surprise I got this book because of the narrator after listening to a different book she narrated. I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed it. My only complaint is it is an awfully short book to spend a whole credit on, but I don't regret the decision at all.

In Belle Mére, sin and secrets go hand in hand, but when what happens in Vegas doesn't stay there, no twisted secret will be safe. Everyone here has something to hide and a lot more to lose, including their lives. Emma and Jameson have each other, or do they? As Emma rushes to discover the truth about her past, she has to face the possibility that she'll lose him forever. But with each new revelation, she finds herself closer to learning who killed Nathaniel West. She's not sure who to trust: her frenemies, her lying parents, or the online stalker that knows more than he's sharing. When the Dealer plays his card, will they all fall down? Members Reviews: Well that was a great twist Would you consider the audio edition of All Fall Down to be better than the print version? Yes. The emotions that a narrator brings are amazing. Who was your favorite character and why? Jameson. I think he did everything he could and all that was expected of him. Which scene was your favorite? The last party confrontation! Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you? Well, the ending was a little emotional. I think it was a perfect resolution and I started to see it coming in book one but the way it was written did have me second guessing myself. Any additional comments? This trilogy is well worth the price.

Between: Crossroads Saga Audiobook by Mary Ting

Having a special soul, Claudia attracts danger, and she soon finds out who Gamma asked to watch over her. The Twelve, known as Divine Elders on Earth, are very much involved when they find out that Aliah, one of the God's first angels, escaped from the Abyss when the gates were opened by Aden. Needing Claudia's soul to escape the only place Aliah can reside - a place between Heaven and Earth - he sends his demons in search of all Claudia Emersons on Earth. Taking her soul will enable him to be released from Between and cross over to Crossroads, which would give him immense power. As more secrets are revealed Claudia learns about the venators-nephilim, demon hunters. Now two opposing forces must work together in order to save Claudia and humanity from the most dangerous angel ever created. But along the way, trust becomes a big issue. Will love be enough to keep Claudia and Michael together? Who will make the ultimate sacrifice? Who will betray them all? Members Reviews: Disappointing, plot sometimes lacks direction I really enjoy the growth of relationship between Claudia and Michael. I also love the growing friendship between Claudia and the rest of the alkins. For me, these are the best things about this story. Overall though, I am a little disappointed in this book. I just do not find the rest of the story very exciting. There are plot points that I find contradictory and character decisions that make very little sense. Much of the story lacks real direction, and the ending feels completely unnecessary other than to create plenty of angst for the next book. I will continue to finish the series though to see where Ting takes it. ... this one immediately after reading Crossroads and it didn't disappoint. Claudia's life isn't in immediate danger so she ... I had to start this one immediately after reading Crossroads and it didn't disappoint. Claudia's life isn't in immediate danger so she is to live life like normal. She won't see her guardians as often. At least until she is once again in trouble which seems to happen to her a lot. There is a new threat that will force two groups to work together who don't play well with others. The whole group is back and determined to keep Claudia safe as her power grows, but will it be enough? Claudia is coming into her own and I love that. The author did a good job surprising me on several occasions through this story. We met some new characters, some I loved, and some I despised. Michael is still more determined than ever to keep Claudia safe. Davin is back and better than ever, along with the rest of the crew. I absolutely hated/loved the ending of this book. A 5/5 and I cannot wait to continue the series! I really wanted to like it.... I like the concept behind this saga.It's just not going anywhere. It's alot of the same stuff over and over. No really good plot twists. I decided to stop after this book. I gave it a chance with the first two books, but I'm not going any further. It's a shame, because I really wanted to like them. The concept caught me, but the storyline couldn't keep me. Also, these books must be published by a small house because the editing is horrible. My fingers were itching to reach for my red pen the whole time I was reading. Just a small pet peeve of mine.

Two Thousand Miles Audiobook by Jennifer Davis

But Kat fears she may lose them all when the secret she's been keeping is revealed and she's suddenly summoned back to Malibu to settle unfinished business. Members Reviews: Win-Win Where does Two Thousand Miles rank among all the audiobooks youve listened to so far? The top of the list What does Meghan Kelly bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book? Absolutely she does! When I read, I often do not remember to keep accents going nor do I often know the right accent, so to have the narrator "give" me the accent and keep it going is a major plus. Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? I laughed throughout Kat's time in Louisiana and cried when her "secret" was revealed in the newscast. Any additional comments? Disclaimer: Though I had purchased this eBook over a year ago and it has been patiently waiting for my attention since, I volunteered to listen to the audio book version for review. What a happy win-win coincidence - a book off Mount TBR and an honest review freely given! As this is a review, not a summary of the story, please refer to the book blurb or look to other reviewers' summaries for a plot description -- this review will be kept spoiler free. This is a 275 page, or just under a 6-hour, new adult romance with a bit of mystery & suspense and a few HEAs. This does not end with a cliffhanger, but can conceivably be turned into a series with additional books focused on other characters or couples. The audio book was narrated by Meghan Kelly and she is the reason this 3-star "good book" has been bumped up to a 4-star rating. Please do not interpret that negatively; a three-star rating is a good book. While I cannot speak to the grammar/punctuation editing as I listened to the book and didn't read it, the characters were well drawn, full of life and believable. I felt for our Hero and our Heroine in their situations, in their connection and their separation and so on. The opening chapter successfully created my interest, the comradery among the characters held my interest and the "secret" kept my interest piqued. Ms Kelly added accent, tone and emotion to the black typeface. She performed well with the varied voices, male and female, younger and older. Thank goodness for her southern accents to help keep me grounded in Louisiana. The 16- to 18-year old teenagers, making up the majority of the cast, behaved older than their years turning this possibly Young Adult story into a New Adult. The alcohol consumption, cussing and premarital sex definitely moves this story away from YA to NA categorization. Personally, I want characters to have common sense, intelligence (for their age) and manners, who are wholesome, generally honest and vibrant. It is a turn-off for me to read stories cast with inconceivably naive (for their age), flippant, thoughtless, self-centered, and/or emotion-driven characters. To have a variety of characters is all well and good, but to have the hero and heroine so faulted makes the story unbelievable, unrealistic and illogical. Miss Davis has created a cast of believable characters.

Life's a Witch Audiobook by Brittany Geragotelis

This witch lives a charmed life... Hadley's the envy of every girl - and the desire of every guy. But being at the top of the social pyramid has its drawbacks. Hadley's always kept her frenemies close and her secrets closer - one big secret in particular. Her key to magically having it all is that she's an actual witch. As a descendant of the first woman executed in the Salem Witch Trials, Hadley understands the consequences if her secret gets out. The only ones who know about her powers are members of her coven - other kids and parents who, like Hadley's own family, have magic in their blood. But there's no way to cover up an attack that causes every adult in the coven to vanish. All the evidence points to an age-old rival coven as the culprit. Now it's up to Hadley to lead the young witches against the Parrishables and to rescue their missing parents. At the same time, she's caught up in her feelings for a mysterious guy named Asher, who has plenty of secrets of his own. With everything at stake, can Hadley trust her magic - and her heart? Members Reviews: it gets better. That very well could be the case I've had this book for some time now, and was extremely excited to start it. I'd found the book through a launch of another author and found out it had originally been posted on Wattpad. I'm big for supporting authors who got their start through the Orange Giant. I'd read the prologue and had been hooked to it immediately, but when the first chapter rolled around and we were with our main character, everything came to a screeching halt. I found the main character obnoxious. I couldn't even get through the first couple chapters. She's popular, gets what she wants and has a rotating wardrobe that eliminates the possibilities of wearing the same thing twice (because who would dare be caught wearing the same outfit) all due to her magic. I found her friend who has a photographic mind when it comes to outfits more charming than the main character. I wanted to follow her instead. I don't think I've ever been so turned off by a main character in my time of reading. Who knows, maybe it's one of those books that if you force yourself to plow through it, it gets better. That very well could be the case, but I haven't had the time to do that. When you're a college student working a job and interning, it's hard to find the time to read a book, let alone one you don't enjoy. I'm hoping to try this tactic sometime in the future, and if anything changes, I will come and adjust my review of this book accordingly. Until then, I give it a 2 star rating. Fantastic New Series Just finished LAW and LOVED it! Hadley is an awesome main character because she has a lot of depth that isn't apparent right away. I loved that she was conflicted about what she should do/the heavy responsibility of leading the coven right after she suffers a significant loss, and her not fully understanding that she really is the strongest leader of all of the twitches. I'm drawn to character development, so that really stuck with me, and how she found her confidence in the witch world.

In the two years since her father died, 16-year-old Eva has found comfort in reading romance novels - 118 of them, to be exact - to dull the pain of her loss that's still so present. Her romantic fantasies become a reality when she meets Will, who understands Eva's grief. Unfortunately, after Eva falls head over heels for him, he picks up and moves to California without any warning. Not wanting to lose the only person who has been able to pull her out of sadness - and, perhaps, her shot at real love - Eva and her best friend, Annie, concoct a plan to travel to the West Coast to see Will again. As they road trip across America, Eva and Annie confront the complex truth about love. In this honest and emotional journey that National Book Award finalist Sara Zarr calls "gorgeous, funny, and joyous", listeners will experience the highs of infatuation and the lows of heartache as Eva contends with love in all its forms. Members Reviews: Loved it Couldn't put it down, once I started. Great story. Not predictable at all. Highly recommend Entertaining for the most part The storyline was good but the outcome was predictable. Love Laura Knight Keating - her performance was why I continued to listen. Not for adults If you are under 21 you may enjoy this. Anyone with life perspective will find it trite.

The Art of Not Breathing Audiobook by Sarah Alexander

Title: The Art of Not Breathing Author: Sarah Alexander Narrator: Colleen Prendergast Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 20 mins Language: English Release date: 05-10-16 Publisher: Dreamscape Media, LLC Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 3 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: Since her twin brother, Eddie, drowned five years ago, 16-year-old Elsie Main has tried to remember what really happened that fateful day on the beach. One minute Eddie was there, and the next he was gone. Seventeen-year-old Tay McKenzie is a cute and mysterious boy that Elsie meets in her favorite boathouse hangout. When Tay introduces Elsie to the world of freediving, she vows to find the answers she seeks at the bottom of the sea. Members Reviews: Decent book with good characterization. Story line was good. Characterization worked. Kind of a weak ending. The Art of Not Breathing lands right in the middle of "liked" and "loved" and had its ups and downs but was still enjoyable As a note, a printed galley of this novel was sent to me by the publisher in exchange for an honest review. This does not effect my opinions in any way. When I first heard about The Art of Not Breathing I knew that I had to read it. There was something I enjoyed about the vibe of the summary and I coveted it from the get go. I felt it had the potential to be all its own but also hit a similar vein like Sarah Dessen, Lurlene McDaniel and Gayle Forman. And who can resist such a promising plot? I felt right away I would need a tissue box on hand and I wasn't wrong. But. Huge but. The Art of Not Breathing wasn't exactly what I expected it to be and while it was still solid, and I'd definitely recommend it, I couldn't help but to be a little uncertain about it. As a whole, I can't say if I'm going to ever be inclined to pick it up and read it again. But I will say that it is undeniably heartfelt and a breeze to finish. All you young adult lovers out there will devour this one quickly and it's readily on the list of summer reads. Sarah Alexander hits a lot of good notes in her portrayal of loss--the loss of a twin, five years prior, no less--and mental illness. There are many trigger warns applicable to The Art of Not Breathing but not always in an overly graphic way. I daresay that Alexander knew what she was doing and did a solid when it came down to accuracy. She puts so much strength and heart and heartbreak into this story that you really come out of it feeling a great deal towards it. The tragedy of losing a loved one is heavily present in the theme of the novel and I cannot stress how beautifully crafted the emotions were in this one. Completely realistic. Elsie, our lead, isn't unlike the people we know in real life. She's deeply flawed and scarred from the past. She's beautifully real and striking in way that will keep you on your toes. Elsie is so very ordinary and while this may be a bit of a conflict, and she may grate your nerves or not always feel present, she is a solid character. I felt for her. She's so very 16 years old, you know what I mean? She isn't perfect. She just is. Where Elsie is ordinary and has a very obtainable personality and will be relatable to many young girls, that's not where the importance ends. All of the side characters, the love interest included, have differences in personalities and struggles and it's a really great addition. It explores many things that aren't always touched upon properly in fiction and that's what makes The Art of Not Breathing good.

Title: By the Creek Author: Geoff Laughton Narrator: Paul Morey Format: Unabridged Length: 5 hrs and 29 mins Language: English Release date: 06-18-14 Publisher: Harmony Ink Press Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 32 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: Library Edition Soon-to-be high school junior David Harper hates his family's move to the country. There's nothing to do, and he misses his friends in the city. But he doesn't have a choice. His mother's job is in Mason County now, so David and his mom are too, and he has to make the best of it. At first, the only redeeming feature of David's new home is the swimming hole across the field from his house. Then David meets Benjamin Killinger, and suddenly life stops being so dull. Benjamin is Amish, and cooling off in the swimming hole is one of the few liberties he and his brothers enjoy. A friendship with an English boy is not-but that doesn't stop him and David from getting to know each other, as long as it's on the neutral ground by the creek. After David risks his life to save Benjamin's father, the boys' friendship is tolerated, then accepted. But before long, Benjamin's feelings for David grow beyond the platonic. Benjamin's family and the rest of the community will never allow a love like that, and a secret this big can't stay secret forever. Members Reviews: Young English/Amish M/M romance in rural Michigan When David Harper and his mother move to a rural area outside Ludington Michigan, David is bored and resentful and knows no one in the area. Added to that, he's feeling a bit marooned in that he has no car when his mother is at work. What David does have is a stream and a swimming hole nearby. Then David meets Benjamin Killinger, an Amish boy his age who just might share some of David's interests... This novel has an interesting plot-line and touches on just how difficult it is for someone who's been raised Amish to leave that community. However, the novel is handicapped a bit in that there is a lot of telling and not as much showing. That tended to make it difficult to fully engage with the story and to fully empathize with the characters or even to envision them as more fully realized, three dimensional characters. In addition there are some points where the story strained my credibility. There is a storm scene that just did not "ring true." Not that there aren't big storms in that region, there are. It's just that the characters' reactions did not feel organic. Also David's reaction when he and Benjamin are discovered just seemed too immature for a high school senior. Conversely, the counsel of his gal-pal seemed too worldly for a girl still in high school. Finally, it seemed like the Amish concept of Rumspringa was handled poorly or perhaps not fully understood by the author. This (debut?) novel is worth the reading time, but might have been better in the hands of a more experienced storyteller. I look forward to seeing what the author does next. I listened to the audio-book version of this narrated by Paul Morey. His portrayal of the voices of both boys was well done and his portrayal of the women in the piece was effective if not inspired. Overall, the audio version was a good but there was a monotone aspect to this that I'm undecided about. It may have been a factor of the way that the tell-heavy, show-light, prose was structured as much as the voice performance. A Good Heart, A Good Read I did not even pay attention to the fact that this is a young adult title as one would find at the Harmony Ink site until I realized that the writing was not exactly aimed at older adults.

A picture-perfect family; a handsome, loving boyfriend; and a foolproof life plan: ace her SATs, get accepted into Harvard early action, and live happily ever after. But when her dad moves out and her mom loses it, Juliet begins questioning the rules by which she's always lived. Suddenly it's difficult for her to remember why she cared so much about rocking Latin exams or snagging elite internships--or if her family was ever as happy as she thought they were. And then there's Declan, the gorgeous boy who makes her feel alive and spontaneous--and who's totally off-limits. Torn between the life she always thought she wanted and one she never knew was possible, Juliet begins to wonder: What if perfect isn't all it's cracked up to be?

Thanks to HarperCollins and Edelweiss.) 17-year-old Juliet has the perfect boyfriend and a perfect life planned with him, until her mother tries to commit suicide, and she ends up in the arms of Declan, a boy with a guitar and a band. Can a perfect SAT score lead to a perfect life? And is a perfect life really what Juliet wants? This was a good contemporary story, about one girls struggle to find what she really wanted from life, but it wasnât better than perfect. Juliet was someone that I could really relate to. I felt sorry for her and the position her mother put her in, and I also felt her confusion and pain over whether her life was really heading in the direction she wanted it to. I personally felt under a lot of pressure to go to university as well so I really sympathised with her. The storyline in this was pretty good. There were so many things going on in Julietâs life for her to try and cope with, and I liked how the whole book didnât revolve around the romance, although I have to say that Declan was so sexy! How this girl was supposed to choose between her boyfriend of 4 years and Declan was quite beyond me! On the minus side, it was wrong of her to cheat the way she did, and to not really get caught doing it didnât seem very realistic. I totally expected her to get caught in the act! I also wasnât a fan of the whole âJ Powerâ thing which Juliet and Jason seemed to say to each other far too frequently, which coupled with the âpinky-linkingâ became a little sickening. The ending was okay, but I didnât feel like things were really resolved completely. Juliet did make a decision about college, but that was all. I didnât feel like she made a decision about Declan, I didnât feel like she really knew where she wanted her life to go, I just felt like she was delaying things. That may be a realistic ending, I know plenty of people who still donât know where they fit in who are much older than 17, but it just didnât feel like the best ending for the book.

Title: On the Edge Author: Allison van Diepen Narrator: Marisol Ramirez Format: Unabridged Length: 6 hrs and 50 mins Language: English Release date: 11-25-14 Publisher: HarperAudio Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 6 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: Wrong place. Wrong time. Maddie Diaz never should have taken that shortcut through the park. If she hadn't, she wouldn't have seen two gang members attacking a homeless man. Now, as the only witness, Maddie knows there's a target on her back. But her courage has also caught the attention of Lobo, the mysterious leader of a rival gang, who promises to protect her. Lobo might be out for his own revenge, but Maddie knows she can trust him. And even though Lobo tries to push her away, she is determined to find out the truth about him. As sparks fly between them, Maddie is drawn deeper into his dangerous world - until there's no turning back. When you live on the edge, any moment could be your last. Members Reviews: bad boys and probably everything that is related to these ... One thing you should probably know about me, Iâm a huge sucker for books that involve gangs, the mafia, bad boys and probably everything that is related to these three. Honestly, lock me in a room full of books that fit into the categories above, I probably wouldnât object. On The Edge didnât fail to amaze me. I had so many great expectations from this book, mainly because I decided to skip the reviews of this book on Goodreads (because no matter what the review said, itâd probably affect me) and also because hey, it has a gang and a mysterious gang leader and a passionate love story in it. I want to talk about the writing before getting to the plot though. Iâm not going to write a super long paragraph, just talking about its writing, I only want to say that it was really easy to read the book. Maybe itâs kind of related to the plot, I donât know but you really are able to finish this book in one sitting. I was a bit worried that there were going to be too many names and details to remember and that they would become confusing and hard to remember at one point, but that wasnât the case at all. Like I said, Iâm pretty sure most people would be able to finish this in one sitting without having problems. I liked how the author gave place to a guy who was being judged because of his tattoos and past in the story. Obviously, to be careful around the gangs and all they need to judge people and act upon that judgement (because you can never be too careful, even I do that) but it was still nice to read about that, it gave the story more perspective in a way. Excluding the one about who Lobo was correctly, my guesses about many things were not correct and I like being surprised while reading so yes, I gave the book a plus for not being predictable. LOBO. L O B O . O H M Y G O D. ASFALKFHA. He was arrrgghhhhhhhhhhh, so arghhhhh that I even lost the ability to form proper sentences. I donât even know what to say about him! I also loved how the book talked about important issues like woman trafficking and drugs-mostly woman trafficking though. I liked how there was a group of people, solely trying to get rid of the people associated with this. Besides, people talked about woman trafficking, too and they were aware of this problem. To conclude, I can say that On The Edge is a perfect book for the ones who like anything with gangs and bad boys, with just the perfect amount of action and romance. For the first time ever, Iâm feeling the âIâm jealous of people who are reading my favorite book for the first time.

Kristin McMichael Narrator: Kendall Atkins Livick Format: Unabridged Length: 5 hrs and 19 mins Language: English Release date: 06-19-17 Publisher: Lexia Press, LLC Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 2 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: Book two in The Merworld Trilogy Whitney was amazed she finally had a boyfriend, and was prepared for a new life with him in the siren night human world. And the fact that he was a lead singer in a rock band in his free time wasn't bad either. Too bad having a boyfriend didn't mean she was going to see him, as his father's punishment included separating them. Whitney is certain she can handle it, but sure enough, that isn't the only wrench thrown into her new life. There's a new threat in town, a scarier one than the backstabbing siren clan she's part of now. They are night human hunters, and Whitney is an outlawed night human breed. Could her luck get any better? Quiet and peaceful would be ideal, but that's not what she's about to get. Members Reviews: Thoroughly addicting! !!! First off. ...if you haven't read any of this authors previous Night Human series, you may want to check them out first to get acquainted with the world building. If you've already read the other books and book 1 of this awesome series then buckle up! We see Whitney grow into her siren abilities. ...true to form Sams evil brother Tim causes trouble. ...how to keep Whitney safe when Sam himself is ordered to remain underwater by his overbearing dad. Whitney is left alone on shire as her friends have been ordered to act as servants to her archnemesis Amber. Curious siblings show up to the school and befriend Whitney in her time of need. There's something unique about them. ...she just doesn't know what it is. All kinds of supernatural mayhem occurs. ...who will come out on top? Will Sam and Whitney's love reign supreme? Will the King realize what a jerk he's being? ....(don't hold your breathe) ...I can't wait to see what happens next! I'm LOVING this surprise faction in the Night walker realm. Looks like within the siren faction there's still a huge amount for us to discover along with Whitney. Personally I'm also hoping we may see her BFFs from the previous Night walker/Daywalker books show up in the future. She and Prince Sam are quickly becoming a force for good and a force to be reckoned with. ...keep an eye on Jade/Jax. ..I think we may be seeing them in future books < grin >. After all, one can never have enough friends or allies. Long live Prince Sam and Whitney! ! another great shifter story Once again, another great shifter story. Ms Kristin, I'm 60 yrs old. My first book that I owned was Wild Animals I Have Known at age 7. I mostly read fantasy now, although I've read book from every genre out there. It is so good to relax and read a great shifter story w/o having to run into lurid sex scenes. I understand they're YA. I actually find myself reading more and more of it because of that fact. Thank you so much for writing exceptional fantasy stories I can share and discuss with my granddaughter. (The whole family are Sci Fi/Fantasy nerds) keep up the great work. Enemy of my enemy Another fast paced book. Lots more to learn about in this book, and some nice twists. I hope to see more good relationships and more of the friends from the first book come back in the third. I hope the future at the top is not as lonely as it seems. A great quick read! I finished this one the same day as the first.

Ronit & Jamil Audiobook by Pamela L. Laskin

Laskin Narrator: Nira Amiel, Assaf Cohen, Aylam Orian Format: Unabridged Length: 1 hr and 29 mins Language: English Release date: 02-21-17 Publisher: HarperAudio Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 2 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: Pamela L. Laskin's beautiful and lyrical novel in verse delivers a fresh and captivating retelling of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet that transports the star-crossed lovers to the modern-day Israel-Palestine conflict. Ronit, an Israeli girl, lives on one side of the fence. Jamil, a Palestinian boy, lives on the other side. Only miles apart but separated by generations of conflict - much more than just the concrete blockade between them. Their fathers, however, work in a distrusting but mutually beneficial business arrangement, a relationship that brings Ronit and Jamil together. And lightning strikes. The kind of lightning that transcends barrier fences, war, and hatred. The teenage lovers fall desperately into the throes of forbidden love, one that would create an irreparable rift between their families if it were discovered. But a love this big can be kept secret for only so long. Ronit and Jamil must face the fateful choice to save their lives or their love, as it may not be possible to save both. Members Reviews: Beautiful, provocative read Very intriguing version of this classic story. Loved so many of the poems, especially when Laskin created pairs, which showed how similar each side was to the other. Wish it were longer! Beautiful and very thoughtful, with a good message. Didn't do enough research on this one... I didn't do enough research about this book before pre-ordering. The idea of a new Romeo and Juliet between an Israeli girl and Palestinian boy was intriguing. The political aspects and the romance aspects were such that I was convinced I wanted to see how the author handled it. I did not, however, realize that Ms. Laskin is a poet. I am not a huge fan of poetry. (Except Lord Byron's. I like Byron.) Having paid for the book, I was determined to read it. It didn't take me too long, and I got confused as to who was speaking sometimes. It was repetitive, but I think the repetition is important, as part of the point of the story seems to be to highlight how similar both Ronit & Jamil are, and how similar their families are, despite the gulfs between them. The political exploration was even-handed, with appropriate, I thought, world views expressed. The Romeo and Juliet theme carried through, with what seemed like heavy borrowing from the classic in places. My overall impression is disappointment, and not simply because I was looking forward to a meaty story. The poetry is specific, evocative...even simplistic at times. It's repetitive, and yet somehow lacking in detail. The book isn't the deep, character- and setting-rich novel that I was expecting -- and wanting -- to read. Five Stars I loved this book I thought it was a beautiful retelling of Romeo and Juliet...And just perfect A must-read! This beautiful, modern-day love story (a retelling of Romeo and Juliet) will draw you in immediately with its spare and often searingly evocative poetry. Israeli and Palestinian teens, Ronit and Jamil, tell their stories in alternating poems, which function as a literary pas de deux, tracing the arc of their forbidden love affair.

October Breezes Audiobook by Maria Rachel Hooley

Buoy Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 42 mins Language: English Release date: 07-04-16 Publisher: Maria Rachel Hooley Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: Skye Williams knows everything there is to know about mistrust. Dad skipped out when she was five. And now Warren Jacobs tries to sweep her mom off her feet. But Warren's not the only concern rocking Skye's world. Devin Abbott, a guy she's known since kindergarten, has changed. He's become a tall, broad-shouldered guy she might date - if he wasn't her best friend. Skye swears there's nothing between them, but everyone else thinks differently. Devin doesn't act the way he used to, especially when Kellin Morgan, senior quarterback, asks Skye out. Flattered, she accepts, and, Devin sulls up - and he isn't the only one. Kellin's best friend, Tyler Rutherford, gets bent out of shape, too, as he's always wanted Skye for himself. When Kellin and Skye attend one of Tyler's famous parties, neither senses the impending disaster that will change not only her life but also that of everyone who loves her. Members Reviews: A MUST READ!! What to say? This book certainly had some subject matter that will definitely touch a nerve with readers. I don't want to give away the story so I'll try to make this as spoiler free as I can. I started out the book not minding Skye. She was obnoxious as some teenagers are but at first I could understand her fears with Warren dating her Mom since her read Dad left when she was younger. Once I got into the story I found myself wanting to slap her for being so stubborn, but at the same time I totally understood her thought process because it was much like my own at points in my life. As I've stated, I don't want to say a lot on the story because I'll give it away. *SPOILER* Rape, abortion and suicide are addressed.*SPOILER* Even though there were some very touchy subjects covered in this book; they were written in a way that any teenager could read and it was tastefully done. I will say that some parts of this book were very personal for me and I found myself wanting to skip paragraphs because at some points Skye's thinking was so much like my own it was emotionally hard for me to keep reading. If any of the spoilers I mentioned above are a demon of your past, especially the first two listed, it's a good idea to make sure you have as much peace with your situation as possible before you start reading! The part that I related to still haunts me and honestly, this was the most difficult book I've read recently because of the subject. Anyhow, the book was very well written and it's something I would let my daughter read when she's old enough. Though the subjects covered are very serious, this book can be used as good teaching tool for parents and young women. I gave the book 5 stars for a few reasons. One was how well the subjects were covered. Two was because even though Skye was a pain in the ass at times, I related to her thought process so well I truly connected with her as a character. She was a completely believable character... when she hurt, I was hurting along with her and that made her so real to me. Lastly, I gave it 5 stars because the message in the book after someone reads it should be loud and clear. Going through tough obstacles alone is never a good idea! When you have friends and family that love you, it's always best to confide in someone no matter the situation.

Masked Destiny Audiobook by Mark A. Roeder

Roeder Narrator: Guy Veryzer Format: Unabridged Length: 15 hrs and 7 mins Language: English Release date: 07-07-14 Publisher: Mark A. Roeder Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 34 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: Masked Destiny is the story of Skye, a high school athlete determined to be the Alpha male. Skye's obsessed with his own body, his Abercrombie & Fitch wardrobe, and keeping those around him in their place. Try as he might, he's unable to ignore the world around him, or the plight of gay boys who cross his path. Too frightened of what others might think, Skye fails to intervene when he could have saved a boy with a single word. The resulting tragedy, wise words from a mysterious blond boy, and a unique opportunity combine to push Skye toward his destiny. Oliver is young, a bit pudgy, and interested in little more than his books and possibly his first kiss. As he slowly gains courage, he seeks out the friendship of Clay, his dream boy, in hopes they will become more than friends. Oliver is sought out in turn by Ken, who warns him Clay is not at all what he seems, but Ken, too, has his secrets. Oliver must choose between the two and discovers danger, a link to boys murdered in the recent past, and the answers to secrets he'd never dreamed. Members Reviews: Hard to judge a book so poorly read Any additional comments? This may be the worst reading I have listened to, worse even than the almost infamous Boy Toy for Christmas. Dreary and slow I came close to making my first return after 20 mins or so but stuck it to the end. The story has a little interest but the writing is laboured and tries too hard with its philosophy and maybe not hard enough with its credibility and dialogue.

Computer whiz Audrey McCarthy feels most at home in a tech lab, surrounded by her fellow geeks. Once popular and fearless, she hasn't been the same since her dad died. And her ex-best friend, gorgeous queen bee Blake Dawkins, has turned into her worst nightmare. Audrey is counting the minutes until high school is over and she can get the hell out of Dodge and go to college - that is, if she can find a scholarship. So when Public Corporation, a giant tech company, announces a contest for the best app developed by a high schooler - with $200,000 in prize money - Audrey is spurred into action. She comes up with an idea so simple, yet so brilliant, she can't believe it hasn't been done: the Boyfriend App. With a simple touch of the screen, romance blooms among the unlikeliest couples at school, and people start to take notice. But it's not quite enough. To beat out the competition, Audrey will have to dig deeper. And she does - right into a scandal that would rock Public to its core. Suddenly the Boyfriend App lands Audrey where she never expected to be: in the middle of the limelight, passionately kissed by the hottest guys in school, causing complete and utter mayhem. But can it bring her true love? Members Reviews: Great combination of tech and teen romance You dont often get to listen to a teen coming of age novel that has tech in it. I was curious about this title so I listened to it on a lark. I have to admit it was very good, I like the way Sise puts the story together. She did a good job connecting you to the characters and each of the characters have decent depth. Another good story device is making you wait to pick up the backstory of the characters as the story progresses. Delisle narrates the story briskly and her voice is easy to listen to. This is a definite listen, a little sugar sweet, but thumbs up nonetheless. Not as enjoyable as I expected I was really intrigued by the concept of this book since I love nerdy protagonists, but this one was too over the top for my taste.. so we get introduced to Audrey who is a computer genius, and she have a crush on her class mate Aiden who is also a computer nerd, and then they enter this competition to invent an app to win a college tuition, so Audrey invents the Boyfriend App which matches you with your soulmate, I was hooked in this idea but after that problems occur and nothing is making sense anymore .. not Audrey or any one else .. even the plots goes over the top just so it get solved in two lines !! I wanted to enjoy this book more than this The Narration was nice but it wasn't the best I heard, but it did bring some life to the book specially with Aiden :) Hackers meets Mean Girls meets Love Potion No. 9 This book was fantastically written and has a great plot, but please see below for why it gets a 2 star rating from me. Spoilers. Spoilers everywhere. Arielle DeLisle is a FANTASTIC narrator, and I will be looking for other books read by her. Audrey McCarthy is your typical teen programmer - shy, introverted, and brilliant. She's also very poor - her dad died three years ago in a terrible work accident, and her mom is a lunch lady. When Public (read: Facebook) announces an app contest with Danny Beaton (read: Justin Bieber) as the spokesperson, she knows its her only chance to go to the college she deserves to go to.

Title: Fury Subtitle: The Fury Trilogy, Book 1 Author: Elizabeth Miles Narrator: Emma Galvin Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 3 mins Language: English Release date: 09-07-11 Publisher: Simon & Schuster Audio Ratings: 3 of 5 out of 20 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: Sometimes sorry isn't enough.... Its winter break in Ascension, Maine. The snow is falling and everything looks pristine and peaceful. But not all is as it seems.... Between cozy traditions and parties with her friends, Emily loves the holidays. And this years even better - the guy shes been into for months is finally noticing her. But Em knows if she starts things with him, theres no turning back. Because his girlfriend is Ems best friend. On the other side of town, Chase is having problems of his own. The stress of his home life is starting to take its toll, and his social life is unraveling. But thats nothing compared to whats really haunting him. Chase has done something cruel... something the perfect guy he pretends to be would never do. And its only a matter of time before hes exposed. In Ascension, mistakes can be deadly. And three girls - three beautiful, mysterious girls - are here to choose who will pay. Em and Chase have been chosen. Critic Reviews: "The furies are reinvented in eerie modern form, wreaking havoc in the lives of a group of teens in a fictional Maine town in this spine-prickling debut, first in a planned trilogy." (Kirkus Reviews) Members Reviews: Dark Dismal and Depressing The most dynamic thing about this book is the cover. The Furies are more like modern day mythological mean girls who have nothing better to do than to dole out retributions of a hundred fold felony from a misdemeanor crime. Em has an eye for her best friend's boyfriend, Chase is all about image and pride. They both will pay the price for their petty mistakes in the furies twisted view of fair. I found most of the characters unlikable shallow superficial teenagers, who even as the story progressed and they grew had no real chance of redemption. The plot was based on typical contemporary teenage behavior of boyfriend stealing, cyber bulling, and upper clickisms. Though current issues, they are also a bit cliched and not very inventive. The juvenile intent and inexperience in consequences add to the naive nature of the crimes committed by the chosen ones but the level of maturity of the characters makes the harness of their punishments unbelievable. This concept would have worked better in a different genre or age group. Fury is a bad dark teen drama with some crones thrown in to make it different. It needed a stronger concept and a little camp thrown in to lighten up the way too serious feel of the book. I found it a dismal depressing drag. It was okay This one could have been better but it just took so long to get to where it was going I had to turn it off. I only listen to the rest because I need something to listen to. The end made it better but it was like pulling teeth to get there. Great book Emma Glavin's voice will make any book captivating . Great book though. This isn't my normal genre but I enjoyed the listen.

Title: Lucas Author: Kevin Brooks Narrator: Stina Nielsen Format: Unabridged Length: 11 hrs and 14 mins Language: English Release date: 08-28-17 Publisher: Nudged Audio Ratings: 1 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: Caitlin's life changes from the moment she sees Lucas walking across the causeway one hot summer's day. He is the strangest, most beautiful boy she has ever seen - and when she meets him, her world comes alive. But to others, he quickly becomes an object of jealousy, prejudice and hatred. Caitlin tries to make sense of the injustice that lurks at every unexpected twist and turn, until she realises that she must do what she knows in her heart is right. Members Reviews: A book that has stayed close to my heart In Lucas, fifteen-year-old Caitlin McCann is experiencing one of the most difficult periods of her life. Her best friend, the bold and pig-headed Bill, seems to be losing her mind when she takes up with the roughest crowd on Hale Island. Her brother Dominic, home from college for the summer, seems to be a completely different boy from who she used to know--a phony intellectual on one hand and a clueless party boy on the other. Her father, a reclusive and somber writer, seems to be quietly stewing in his own misery. And her good friend Simon, a goofy and slightly dorky loner, is taking far more than a friendly interest in her. With all of this on her plate, Caitlin meets the mysterious Lucas, a nomadic boy whom the inhabitants of Hale Island know absolutely nothing about. Caitlin admires Lucas's freedom and survivalist mentality, and the two form a friendly bond based solely on their curiousity of one another. However, the people on the small island are not as warm to the boy. They see him as an outsider, a threat, and unwanted edition to their perfectly established community. When a major misunderstanding surrounding a little girl occurs, the people of Hale Island are out for Lucas's blood, and Caitlin tries her hardest to save him from their violence. The most striking theme in this novel is that of prejudice. It alarmed me that a young boy could be treated so cruelly by the members of a community just because he is an "outsider." If you are looking for a cute summer romp between a teenage boy and girl (as the summary on this site subtley implies) this is not the book for you. This is not The Last Song, so don't expect Miley Cyrus in a skimpy dress and her hot volleyball player boyfriend to show up and relieve from the heartache. Lucas deals with hate in its purest form, but provides a ray of hope in the innocent romance of Caitlin and the misunderstood nomad. You will sympathize with Caitlin. You will laugh at certain parts. You might even roll your eyes at the ridiculous behavior of some of the characters. But if you have a heart beating in your chest at all, you will shed many tears for the beautiful boy whom Caitlin comes to love. Five Stars Beautiful book !!! Read it ! Lucas: A warning to society I've read this book years ago and it still keeps me captivated. This is just a well written book, it really awakens your emotions and makes you wonder what kids go through now a days. I highly recommend this book, especially high school kids. I think they will connect on a deep level with this book. Bad Story This book was very unfulfilling and was too short to be much good. Parts of it were good, but the overall story was very poor. I highly recommend the book "Black RabbitmSummer" by this same author.

Hogan Narrator: Laci Morgan Format: Unabridged Length: 10 hrs and 29 mins Language: English Release date: 07-30-14 Publisher: Cindy M. Hogan Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 13 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: Christy has the guy. The terrorists have been taken care of, and she has a shot at becoming popular. Life is great! Until they find her. Now she must run and leave behind everything she knows, including herself. When Christy returns home, she discovers that not much has changed. Not only is she still an outcast, but the bullies are even more persistent than before. When the guy that sends her pulse racing shows up, everything changes. Unfortunately, her feeling of triumph is short lived when the terrorists from DC come calling. Now, Christy and her boyfriend need to find a way to escape and hide. Members Reviews: I loved this book!! So scary, fun, romantic! I read watched too! I will definitely be reading created! Loved it Love the gripping storyline! What made the experience of listening to Protected the most enjoyable? I gave the performance a 3.5 because in the beginning I felt like the narrator was not doing a superb job of changing her voice for each of the characters, especially the male characters. I didn't want it to take away from the amazing story so I bought the book to follow along with the narrator. This helped immensely and she got better as the story progressed. In my opinion, narrator adds a higher level of intensity to the story, especially when Christy/Michelle's life is in danger and she is on the run. Who was your favorite character and why? My favorite character is Christy because at sixteen she loses her entire life and must redefine herself as Michelle, the complete opposite of who she truly is. The MC is strong, compassionate, and tenacious. What three words best describe Laci Morgans voice? Upbeat and fun. Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? This book get me on the edge of my seat. Even when training to be Michelle, you never knew when John was going to throw in a practice abduction attempt. Then as Michelle living her new life you still the very real threat that she would be discovered. Any additional comments? I love this trilogy and will definitely be moving on to book 3. Excellent Story of Teen Girl Placed in Witness Protection Any additional comments? Protected by Cindy Hogan is an adventurous YA novel that is well written, fast paced, and consistent throughout. It is the sequel to Watched: Murder Was Just the Beginning, the first book in the Watched series. Not having read or listened to Watched, all you basically need to know for this book is that the heroine of the series, Christy, is a brainiac 10th grader who goes a high school trip to Washington, D.C. where she witnesses the murder of a senator's aide. In Protected, Christy is back from her high school trip and the terrorists who killed the aide in DC are now after her. The majority of the book is focused on Christy entering into the FBI's Witness Protection Program, where her parents believe she died in a car crash. She moves across the country and starts training to assume her new identity as a varsity cheerleader in a new high school (keep in mind she is a true nerdy girl). Her training is more like boot camp, with a team of professionals training her in everything from gymnastics to martial arts. Besides taking lessons on self defense, she is also taught awareness of her surroundings and knowing possible escape routes at all times. Laci Morgan did an excellent job narrating.

Ariana has never had a boyfriend. After meeting Carlos at a quinceanera party, she wants one. But her parents, who grew up with the traditional ways of Mexico, simply won't allow it. And she just decided she doesn't need permission anymore... Ariana is ready for the freedom that comes with having a driver's license. But she must convince her brother, Jimmy, to not say anything when she starts seeing Carlos behind their parents' back, and even then, having a boyfriend isn't what she thought it would be. Because Carlos is still hurting from his past. Is she ready for the consequences of her decision? Ariana never would have guessed finally having a boyfriend would come at such a huge price. She doesn't know how long she can keep up the lie to her parents. And she never realized how much her heart might have to pay if this relationship isn't something Carlos is ready for. When Carlos starts showing her just how damaged he is, Ariana isn't sure she's ready for this either. Members Reviews: Give "Better Off" a Chance! I thought this was an interesting story of a girl from a strict family. I thought the writing was good, but at times it dragged a bit. There were a few moments of predictability. Overall, it was pretty good. Awesome Prequel Ariana has never been allowed to have a boyfriend but she is turning 17 and thinks she knows more than her parents, especially since meeting Carlos at a party and he has shown a interest in her. She doesn't even care what her brother Jimmy thinks, when he tries to tell her Carlos isn't the guy for her, and he would do anything for her. So who will be right, will love triumph or those that know her best. This was a great book it really does capture teen rebellion and sneakiness very well along with the. "I know what I am doing" attitude and mindset. Although I think Ariana's parents were a bit strict for todays standards, I suppose there are still a few parents like that. I had the audio narrated by Ramona Master who did a awesome job, and with the audio you can really hear the snarkiness in Ariana's voice, and the cool and calmness in Jimmy's voice. This is a great series but one I really enjoy as a audio, since Ms. Master is so good at this cast. Thought provoking! I loved this story. It dragged me right in. Took me back to teenage years. You've got to read it. I'm excited for more! Good prequel I was starting to get frustrated with the heroine. Glad she got that Carlos issue resolved. I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher. would recommend I loved it. great story. Retains the Hispanic flavor without being hard to understand. I am a little older than her normal demographic (I'm 50) but I still enjoyed it. Would not hesitate to recommend it to a young girl, Jr high to highschool. It's very realistic but not too graphic. if I had to give it a rating like a movie I'd have to say pg13

Members Reviews: Couldn't stop listening First solo adventure to another country some becomes more as Our heroine follows her heart instead of her instincts into the world of faerie. Can't wait to start book 2. "This audiobook was provided by the author/narrator/publisher free of charge in exchange for an unbiased review via Audiobook Blast." Perfect read for the entire family... I enjoyed reading this book. This is my first book by this author and also my first Fae book. I have heard other talk about Fae books, so I am happy to finally read one. This book is perfect for the entire family. It is a clean read too, so nothing embarrassing if neighbors hear it playing. This is a story about a girl turning 18 and gets to travel. She meets some Fae fairies both light and dark. This story has danger, adventure and paranormal happenings in it. I found this book to be entertaining and light hearted. I look forward to the next book in this series. The author, Anna Kyss did a great job writing this story. The plot is great and I find her imagination intriguing. The narrator, Meghan Lewis did a good job on the delivery with multiple voices and accents. All in all this is an very interesting book and a new genre for me. Good job! I received this audio book free of charge in exchange for a honest and unbiased review. The heroine killed this book One of my problems with this book is that the heroine was never made real to me. The author only gave her as much development as you would give a passing secondary character. At the beginning, I honestly thought the heroine was a secondary character who was about to be killed or something before we met the actual heroine, because I was never given any reason to sympathize with her or to care what happened to her. Not only was she not very well developed, but she was stupid. She never acted with any sense and she just kept going along with what the guys wanted while her only worry seemed too shallow to fit with the plot in the story. And the one "guy" she is pining for is really kind of a jerk and has no redeeming qualities. He is too busy feeling sorry for himself and throwing tantrums to make himself likable. And what qualities does this heroine have that makes all the guys want her except that she is pretty and will follow them dumbly wherever they lead? I wouldn't recommend this book to any Young Adult girls because I would frankly demand that they have more common sense than this. Fairies, Fantasy, All here!! What did you love best about Wings of Shadow? Wings of Shadow was a very intriguing and interesting listen.

Would you consider the audio edition of Learning to Swim to be better than the print version? I loved this audio edition! I would have mis-pronounced many words had I read this in a book version. What other book might you compare Learning to Swim to and why? Nothing to compare it to. What about Wendy Pittss performance did you like? I loved the way Wendy did all the voices. Mrs O'Leary & Cora's voices fit them to the T. The narrator did great on the teen voices! If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be? It Happened One Summer... Any additional comments? Wow, What a great story! The plot had me guessing the whole time. The ending was great! I wouldn't have guessed that ending. What a surprise! Could not stop listening Would you listen to Learning to Swim again? Why? Learning to Swim was very engaging. Both the intricate development of the story and characters kept me wanting more. What was one of the most memorable moments of Learning to Swim? I really loved the portrayal of Mrs. O'Leary and the use of myths and legends throughout the story. It really did create a marathon listen for me. Have you listened to any of Wendy Pittss other performances before? How does this one compare? Great switch between characters, first time I have listened to a performance by Wendy Pitts. Cannot wait for her next volume.

Title: Flipping for Him Author: Jeff Adams Narrator: Jason Frazier Format: Unabridged Length: 3 hrs and 12 mins Language: English Release date: 07-21-15 Publisher: J&W Books Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 16 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: Finding a guy was easy. Keeping him might be harder than running up a tree. Kevin McCollum is a high school junior with the usual things on his mind: getting good grades, having fun, and finding a boyfriend. The last one was eluding him until he noticed the "parkour guy". After several days of Kevin pretending to study while watching the attractive teen jump on rocks, run up trees, and do flips, Shin finally comes over to introduce himself. As they start dating, Kevin should've known it wouldn't be that easy. Shin's parents only want their son to date Japanese boys. When cultures clash and pressures mount, Kevin has no idea how to subvert traditions and Shin's parents to keep the boy he cares about. Kevin will need to clear some tricky obstacles to make his modern love story a reality. Members Reviews: ok story, great performance I love Jason and will listen to anything he reads. That guy could make an IKEA instruction book sound sexy. He did struggle a little finding a good accent for Shin (I would have just stuck with a straight American accent) but it didn't deminish the performance too much. The story is OK as long as you can get past the lack of research on behalf of the author in to Japanese culture. A lot of the book relies on tropes. My biggest issue is the names. Quan isn't a Japanese name. It grated all the way through. Otherwise I liked the general journey of the story. Excellent If you could sum up Flipping for Him in three words, what would they be? Very fun read What did you like best about this story? I really enjoyed how the characters met and their interaction. The secondary characters were strong too. This was well plotted and shaped. I thought it was a very cute YA story. Have you listened to any of Jason Fraziers other performances before? How does this one compare? This is the first book by Jason Frazier I have listened to and I was astounded. I have never heard a narrator do "other" voices so well. Yes, I knew which one was Kevin, but then the accents for the other characters like Shin, and the female characters, blew me away because they were so distinct. He is definitely an actor I would like to listen to again.

I don't normally read YA fiction but when my youth group wanted to read something with a little more edge than what they've been reading, we turned to this author and Crystal's Crush did not disappoint. It was an amazing thrill ride with Crystal and Ty as they face the twist and turns that life sometimes throws us. It is age appropriate reading with a lot for youth groups to discuss. How do you balance home, school, personal life, family, friends and still try to cope when things get crazy. It's not easy. But with a little love and a whole lot of trust, these two set off to take on the world together. Great job Sparkle!! I hope we get a chance to see Crystal and Ty again in another story. I'll keep my fingers crossed. Love it the author did her thing I felt bad ... Love it the author did her thing I felt bad for Crystal she went though a lot but in end she was happy.

Arroyo Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 17 votes Genres: Teens, Romance & Friendship Publisher's Summary: Chemical warfare has obliterated most of the world, including America, and the survivors have turned into feral beasts, save one colony, Antius, the last remnant of civilization. Seventeen-year-old Cori (aka Citizen 1206) only longs for wide open spaces and freedom. But Antius has no use for such things, just mindless drones to serve in a place with walls, fences, and laws - a lot of laws, which Cori constantly breaks. So she's spent years plotting her escape, which is the only thing that will save her from the colony's deranged leader, Nathan. She isn't looking to be a hero, and she certainly isn't looking to fall in love, but she just might do both. Members Reviews: My first thought post-listen was "Woah." Cori will always be an outsider. She thinks and acts differently. She is not originally from Antius. Brought in after her father was killed by "savages" and raised by a benevolent leader. This leader suddenly passes and Cori's world is turned upside down. She is forced into the military a year before she was supposed to be and pushed almost beyond her limits. She has to escape, she must escape, she will escape. Follow Cori and her closest friends attempt to leave the only place they've ever known for the unknown outside. Narration was done by the Corinne Bupp (which I thought was awesome because the main character and the narrator had the same first name). Cori (the narrator) absolutely kills it. She was able to use the perfect voice for Cori and gives a wonderful performance. She gives each new person we meet in the book a new voice so that the reader is not totally confused throughout. The production and voice quality were perfect. No issues at all. My first thought post-listen was "Woah." Which was quickly followed by "Oh, please tell me the series is written and that there are more audiobooks on the way. Well Ms. Arroyo, if you are reading this, please know that I (and I'm sure others) would love to hear the second book in this series voiced by Corinne. The story had the perfect arc. Sometimes with a series the author will leave a lot of things on the table, leaving the reader to feel gipped or like they didn't get the whole story. This is not one of those stories. Upon finishing this, I could theorhetically walk away and be okay. I know enough of what is going on that I am comfortable with where it was left off. With that being said, I do not want to walk way from this series. I found it absolutely fascinating and interesting. I love a good dystopian. One of my favorite all-time books is 1984. Sovereign was written perfectly. I rarely say that about books. I can usually find one flaw, but with this, I really feel like I was given a wonderful story, told perfectly, by a character that I feel for. Cori is strong, misunderstood, and severely damaged, but that just made me love her more. I reallyfeltfor Cori throughout this book. When she felt mad, I felt mad. When she was confused, I felt confused. Just a sign of an incredibly hashed out character and story. If you like character-driven storylines, you will love this. If you were a fan of The Hunger Games and Divergent, I think you just found your next series. Take some time, read or listen to this story and fall for Cori like I did.

Mom's bleeding in my arms. She could die any moment, but not before she's made me promise three things: Pray. Don't trust anyone. Stay alive. I promise, but I don't know if I can keep them. Not surviving World War III doesn't scare me, it's surviving it that does. And without the excitement of seeing Bodey every day, did I even want to try? If you're looking for a great dystopian romance, this book is for you! Members Reviews: Basic Armageddon Someone released a disease upon the earth that eliminated a very large part of the population. Following that, bombs are dropped on the United States taking out more of the population. Other countries are also attacked taking out more of the world's population. The remnants of U S citizens are the aggressive supressors or the nonaggressive people just trying to survive. Loved the main characters persistence on survival. Not at all costs, but close to it. They maintain their humanity. Poor Sound Quality While very short, the story is a good one. It's very fast paced with lots of action and enjoyable characters. The sound quality and narration are a bit subpar but I got used to it. I will continue the series.

After spending years performing on cue, Emma can't help but wonder if any part of her life is real anymore particularly her romances. She's been burned by heartthrobs (and the press) one too many times, but there's something about Emma's co-star on her new TV show Coyote Hills that is irresistible. Jake Elliott is gorgeous, smart and actually cares about Emma's charitable foundation. But she's sworn off on-set relationships. They always end badly don't they? This third novel in the deliciously fun If Only romance line proves that the best kinds of love stories don't follow a script. Members Reviews: FANTASTIC This made me freaking love this book even more! It's everything I could want from an audiobook. Great story I would have any of my kids read I love it when a book doesn't need to have graphic details and foul language to tell a very sweet love story. Not in the script This is an fantastic book, I heard it in two days, because I couldn't let it go! It is completely a must read if you love dramatic and romantic books! The characters are so well writing that you feel like you are in the book. So everybody who loves a good love story should listing to this!!!
