Another very good installment in the series. I like how Anna is exploring her powers and how supportive Charles is of her. I found the expansion of Leah’s storyline interesting too.
Great cover on this one.

I love how central true friendship is to these stories. Not perfect friendship, true friendship, with its flaws and missteps and makings of amends.

Well, that was certainly interesting. I got answers to some questions I've been wondering about. Chiefly how and WHY Bran and Leah got together. Briggs has really spent some good effort chipping away at my dislike for Leah in these last couple of books by filling us in on her backstory and showing more of her than petty jealousy. I'm in awe of how many avenues Briggs has opened up for exploration in just one novel. I am looking forward to seeing which one she takes next.

I really appreciate the inclusivity of the worlds she builds in this series as well as the Mercy Thomson books.

Good Backstory For Walt and Henry

In a series, I enjoy when we get to go back in time and peek into the crucibles that shaped my main characters. First Frost gave me the chance to do that with Walt and Henry. I was riveted to the portion of the story that took place in 1964 and shone a light not only on a pivotal time in Walt and Henry's lives but also on one of the most shameful acts of the American government, the interment of peoples of Japanese decent during WWII.

George Guidall's narration isn't as crystal-clear as it once was but it still beats the pants off most other narrations and I can't imagine anyone else telling me Walt's stories.

Sometimes awful events lead to self discovery and growth. That's what happens to Ru in this coming of age story and we get to take that journey with her.

Hyde has a knack for writing interpersonal relationships that are meaningful and deep and Ru and Gabriel's friendship is no exception. I enjoyed their instant connection and comfort with one another and the us against them roadtrip of a lifetime.

I can definitely see myself listening to this one again.

A story about growing and letting go; letting go of past mistakes and victories, nightmares and aspirations, and perceptions of who you are based on what others think of you. Beautifully written and narrated.

Cari Hunter and Nicola Victoria Vincent have sealed the deal with this effort and have become an auto-buy author/narrator combination for me. As soon as I finished this audiobook I purchased the next two in the series.

While the crime investigated is gruesome and heart wrenching there is plenty of levity and geniune affection between characters to balance it out.

I came for the mystery and got swept away by the lovable main characters so much so that I had trouble putting this away and listened every chance I got. A friend once told me that she sees books she reads or listens to like movies and this audiobook is probably the closest I have ever come to that experience. The characters, scenes and experiences are so well described that I had no trouble imagining them all. The narrator, Nicola Vincent, did an excellent job voicing the different characters and told the story in a way that kept me riveted. I would love to listen to more books about Jem and Rosie.
