I had good hopes for this story and doggedly finished to the awful end. As far as the mothers of this school were concerned, shouldn't most of them have jumped from the clock tower? A novel with never any hope at all is simply an exercise in describing depression. it did raise some interesting concerns for society especially in the wake of the Dobbs decision and the loss of so many of our rights. Pray that we never go here.

...at first. I had a hard time with the first 2-3 chapters but the book picked up from there for me. Its set in one of my favorite places to vacation so there is a little added attraction. If it weren't for a few of the better characters and the wonderful narrator I probably wouldn't have finished. Too much poor little rich girl/family problems.

first, I would like to honor the author for the courage and dignity she displayed in narrating her life story. I was proud of her for sharing these really difficult feelings and truths with us and to criticize her delivery in any way is shameful. I wonder, could any one of us do better? I cried more than once as I learned what her family went through. a terrible and beautiful story of a family facing poverty due to alcoholism and mental illness and how the children overcame the odds.

I couldn't put this entire series down and I binge-listened to each book one after the other! Each story was better than the last, until we got to Lyon and Olivia, which was just fantastic! What a beautiful love story. I wish it never had to end and that Pennyroyal Green was actually a real place. After the epilog, who knows? Maybe it is!

I struggled to finish this one. I love these romance novels and the India parts were great. I really disliked the narrator especially during the steamy parts, she was just creepy. she also had trouble with the male voices, also creepy. I noticed a lot of modern phrases in the dialog that a better editor could have fixed. All said, this was a good story with a few bugs that could be overlooked. I don't think I would buy a next one if it was available, specifically because of the narrator.

WARNING ⚠️ TRIGGER ALERT
If you're a survivor of domestic or spousal abuse like me, this book may TRIGGER emotional responses. I'm surprised that I made it half way thru, but the author kept drowning on and on about it until finally I had a massive anxiety attack. Very careless, there should be a warning before purchase!

I really liked this book. I almost didn't get it because of other reviews, but I am happy that I did. I realize that this story is not hard core horror and can understand other's thoughts on that, but for myself, I just enjoyed the story. It was a nice little break and I actually really did enjoy Ms. Sand's narration. I have listened to her before and liked her voice. Don't be afraid to try this one out. It isn't hard-core, but neither is it a cozy mystery!

I usually have a hard time with male narrators but I have to say this one did grow on me. I did, however, really dislike his voices for the female characters. Another thing that bothered me was Verity's cameo. Why couldn't she have voiced Dominic instead of HIM giving Dominic that weird accent 🙄 All in all I did enjoy the tale of another Price sibling and other family members and Cryptids.

Another winner for Seanan McGuire! I love all the amazing characters and their weird world. Full of action laced with humor...I want some Aislin mice! Buying the next one now

between the depressing story, the narrator's smoker's rasp and the jumping back and forth in time I couldn't take it. I did try, I got through to chapter 9 before I decided that was enough of my own happiness wasted
