Rainey’s grandmother makes a startling request: Take me home. To Ireland, the country she fled post-World War II. Though they’re inseparably close, Rainey knows few of her grandmother’s secrets. Until they arrive at Aisling—the majestic estate on the southern coast of Ireland where her grandmother was raised—and Rainey discovers a collection of seventy-year-old letters in a trunk.

It ended too abruptly
Revisado: 08-21-24
Lovely story of love and loss and reconciliation,but the end was too abrupt and felt like there was more to say.

Don’t like a computer generated narrator
Revisado: 04-11-24
I tried to listen to this but a computer generated voice doesn’t work for me. I kept losing my place because its reading isn’t very expressive. A real person can act with their voice, varying tempo and sound level to enhance interest in the story in a way a computer voice can’t.

Rare-book dealer Ashlyn Greer’s affinity for books extends beyond the intoxicating scent of old paper, ink, and leather. She can feel the echoes of the books’ previous owners—an emotional fingerprint only she can read. When Ashlyn discovers a pair of beautifully bound volumes that appear to have never been published, her gift quickly becomes an obsession. Not only is each inscribed with a startling incrimination, but the authors, Hemi and Belle, tell conflicting sides of a tragic romance.

With the letters. A nice combo of supernatural, books, romance and history with a satisfying ending.

For over four decades, Camp Shady Oaks was the premiere youth camp for a summer filled with nature, survival skills, and fun in the remote woods of the Hiawatha National Forest. In 1999, it was forced to close abruptly when tragedy struck.

Not my cup of tea
Revisado: 04-07-23
I found the narrator’s way of speaking very annoying and She sounded too young to be nearly 40 in the present part of the book. The romance was too silly. The ending was a surprise but contrived. Would someone really do something so foolish as to fake a confession on distinctive paper and then keep the rest of the paper for a year?

When Jesse Graham almost runs over a "body" in the road one night, she is plunged into a labyrinth of secrets, lies, and murder. All Jesse wants is a simple life teaching at St. Bart's and a chance at love with Joe Riley. She realizes that plan has been thwarted when puzzling occurrences at St. Bartholomew Academy for Girls get increasingly dangerous. The danger doesn't just spring from the ghost who haunts the grounds of St. Bart's, but from a sinister presence that is not ghostly at all.

Annoying narrator
Revisado: 01-29-18
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
No. The narrator has such an annoying "valley girl" delivery, I had a difficult time listening to it. She sounds about 16 and has an affected way of speaking. I got this second book in the series because I didn't remember this until I started listening. If I'd remembered her narration, I wouldn't have bought it.
Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?
The plot was pretty good.
Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Amy McFadden?
Someone more mature. I don't know who. The main character is supposed to be 28, not 16.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
No
Any additional comments?
This is the first time I've left a negative review because of a narrator. I know she's won a lot of awards, but I just don't like her affected narration style.
