Simon Watson, a young librarian on the verge of losing his job, lives alone on the Long Island Sound in his family home - a house, perched on the edge of a bluff, that is slowly crumbling toward the sea. His parents are long dead, his mother having drowned in the water his house overlooks. His younger sister, Enola, works for a traveling carnival reading tarot cards and seldom calls.

Where does The Book of Speculation rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
This is by far one of my favorites, simply because it was such a nice change for me. The story felt like part novel, part fairytale, part folklore. I could listen to the narrater all day long. All his many voices brought each character alive for me.
What was one of the most memorable moments of The Book of Speculation?
Too many to list!
Which character – as performed by Ari Fliakos – was your favorite?
My favorite character was Simon. He was such a sweet and witty character and the fact that he was a male librarian, but still cool, made me like him more. Second favorite, the electric boyfriend!
Any additional comments?
If this is going out on a limb for you to read a magical tale, give this one a shot. You may realize you have found a new genre!
