Didn’t even notice the length!

Revisado: 06-07-23

I’m not usually a fan of high fantasy, and therefore longer, books. But this one had me engaged from the first page. The writing is well crafted and elegant without feeling over the top or flowery at all. The protagonist narrator was great—used pacing, tone, and emphasis to really envelope the listener in the story and capture the characters, which the writing also does well. A few slower-plot parts (why I don’t like high fantasy) actually kept me engaged. And the romance wasn’t forced nor does it eclipse the story—tasteful (though there is one explicit chapter). I’ll probably grab book 2 on audio, too.

Small-town Women’s fiction paranormal romantic mystery

Revisado: 03-10-23

A light small-town paranormal romantic (more women’s fictiony) crime mystery in dual POV. A fun cast of characters, building suspicion with constantly high stakes without overdoing it (not a cozy mystery but not grizzly either), and lots of romantic tension and growth. I found the two characters were both well represented in their chapters and added to the story with their POVs. Fun, interesting, and a quick easy read. I listened to the audio and the narrator did a good job separating characters into unique voices and personalities.

A fae office whodunnit

Revisado: 02-24-23

Interesting mix of tech and fae with Toby and a familiar cast solving the mystery of office murders. Lagged a bit in places but overall quite engaging. Narrator does a great job giving the story and characters life.

Another winning UF/PNR

Revisado: 03-08-22 El oyente recibió este título gratis

Things get darker in this one with the dead coming back to life and being pupated around town. To counter the darker nature of the mystery, the author has also peppered in more of the protagonist's humor and some of her poor taste in men. I'm still enjoying the characters, the swiftly moving action, and the hooking mysteries to solve. The narrator again does a great job with accents and personalities.

A well-rounded YA fantasy

Revisado: 01-08-22

This light yet riveting read embraces a true young-adult writing style and a leading plot in which Titania, a 15-year-old fae, has to embrace responsibility as a queen. This series has a whole gamut of fantasy beings in a whimsical world, with a coming-of-age story of a head-strong young woman with relatable ticks who faces tension in all kinds of relationships. I listened to the audiobook version and the narrator was fantastic.

Highly intense urban/high fantasy

Revisado: 01-05-22

This is another high-energy demon-focused urban fantasy in the series. The romance grows but so does the dangerous plot, the scary/powerful characters (both protagonist and antagonist), and the dark mood of the settings. I'm an urban fantasy lover, but not big on high fantasy, so I found the parts that aren't on Earth pulled me a bit away. If you're into fantasy of all kinds though, you'll love it. It's a demonc ride. The narrator does a FANTASTIC job as always with different characters, pacing, and tone of voice.

Short and sweet supernatural YA romance

Revisado: 09-22-21

The cover didn't prepare me for the sweetness of this short, little (clean) YA (supernatural--spirit/ghost/astral projection-style) romance. If you've ever had a school crush or hoped to/wanted to ask someone to a dance, you'll be able to relate. This was a cute story that was well narrated.

So much character depth! Plus urban fantasy danger

Revisado: 09-21-21

I love Dannika Dark's ability to create incredibly realistic, diverse, and relatable characters you care about while also making them magical, damaged, surprising, twisted, and heroic. Keystone is full of creatures of lore but with unique stories and backgrounds that continue to be revealed and contribute to/intertwine in exciting and dangerous missions in the "present." I found this one a little slow to grab my interest, so I knocked off one star, but it picked up fast. If you like high-action urban fantasy with a bit of (explicit) romance and incredibly gritty, varied, and real characters, then I recommend starting this series at book 1! Also, Nicole Poole is a FANTASTIC narrator (though I put her at 2x speed), so I highly suggest trying the audiobook, even if you were previously anti-audiobooks, like me!

The action and danger never stops

Revisado: 09-08-21

Another high-energy story that takes Piper deeper into the world of demons and the fight over a powerful artifact is full of action, danger, and a lot of emotion. I listened to this audiobook in about a day because it was so engrossing! The narrator does a great job too.

Perfect ending

Revisado: 08-12-21

This book beautifully wrapped up at the massive arcs of all characters and the world and finished beautifully. More action, more danger, more emotions and challenges, more emotions. And most of all: satisfying conclusion. Narration continues to be perfect. Unrelated: I want a demon.
