Dickensen Academy isn’t a typical boarding school. The faculty is hiding an unbelievable secret within their fine arts program. When Autumn Mattison receives an invitation to attend the high school, she yearns to escape her overbearing father yet remains reluctant to leave her mother and brother. Her doubts fade away when a vivid dream convinces her she belongs there.

Away from home, Autumn discovers a unique school environment that awakens her creative potential, and her new friends become like a second family. However, as she uncovers more about the dark side of the school and struggles with its curriculum, she questions whether Dickensen Academy is truly where she belongs.

When tragedy strikes, Autumn must learn to believe in her own power and stand up to her greatest fear or risk having her memories destroyed to protect the school’s secrets. Caught between secrets and dreams, can she find her true self?

I think this is definitely a good book for young adults. You have a teenage MC who is learning to navigate the world on her own, then add in a twist on the school, and things get interesting. Traveling with Autumn through a school year was a nice experience. When tragedy strikes, she realizes how strong she really is (as most of us do in those times). I was happy to see how things turned out.

Interesting!

I loved the sweet romance between Autumn and Ben, and the secondary characters were both realistic and multi-dimensional. The author kept me guessing right up until the end, about what would happen at the mysterious Academy, and whether or not Autumn would overcome her obstacles and find her strengths. Can't wait to find out what happens in Sophomore year!

The performance was also really good. I had to mark down a tiny bit, however, for a couple of odd pronunciations of Northwest landmarks. But overall, her voice was perfect for the part, and I enjoyed her interpretation.

What a fun story!

I got this book to listen with my 10-year-old daughter (in a continual effort to draw her into varied types of books). We were connected with the descriptions of the scenery, having lived in the Pacific Northwest, but the characters in the book and the story kept us listening. At the conclusion, my daughter turned to me and said, "You know what's really great? This was freshman year, so we have three more books to look forward to!" I am delighted that she is ready to consume more of the good writing from this articulate author!

looking forward to the next installment!

I really enjoyed listening to this outstanding audiobook. I’m a teen at heart and absolutely loved the unique take on Dickersen Academy. This author does a great job developing the characters and building a world which is fun and unique.

Narration was good and brought the story to life.

I really enjoyed learning about the characters and their mysterious environment. I also liked the little romance between Autumn and Ben. There are some unexpected obstacles along the way.

Their freshman year was full of surprises and challenges but such a great story. I’m looking forward to book number two!

I really enjoyed this YA story. The primary and secondary characters were all well developed and I love the setting. A great setup for what I hope will be more books to come. Well done,Christine Grabowski!

Kaitlin Cohen delivered a great performance. She really brought the characters to life and kept me engrossed in the story.

After reading the book, it was fun to listen to the audio book. Kaitlin Cohen did a great job of making the characters come alive. It sounded like she could really be the main teen character, Autumn.

Wonderful to hear characters come alive

I really enjoyed this fun spin on a fantasy boarding high school for the creatively gifted. It starts out with the new freshman arriving on campus, getting settled and then learning that their families weren't allowed to visit or the students able to go home until the Thanksgiving holiday... Other odd things start popping up and make Autumn uneasy with new school she had been so excited to be a part of. It's a well written and a very entertaining first book. It appears that each book in this series will cover a full school year. As a parent I would not have a problem with my middle school kids read this as it was really pretty clean. The audio portion of this book was a bit disappointing. I could tell the narrator was trying and she did well overall, but there were many times where some of the voices felt robotic or monotone when there should have been strong emotion.

This was an extremely enjoyable book to listen too. The narrator has done a wonderful job of bringing each character to life. It has some romance, suspense and drama.

I enjoyed everything about this story. I loved the characters, details, pacing, and plot. The narrator was amazing and engaging. I don't read many YA but this one kept me finding moments to listen whenever I could. I'm a big fan of audio and this lived up to my expectations. I highly recommend this book. As YA it's appropriate for younger readers and still quite engaging for older readers and adults too.

This is the first book I’ve read/listened to by this author and I would listen to another. I’m curious where this series will go. The publisher’s summary mentions the ‘dark side’ of the school and destroying memories, but this was misleading. This is a more positive than ominous story. Otherwise the publisher’s summary is quite good.
Autumn’s father wants her to follow in his footsteps and is quite demanding of her. In the book she learns to have more confidence in herself and trust her feelings.

This is the first book I’ve listened to by this narrator ( Kaitlin Cohen ) and I would listen to another. She individualizes most characters, and her male and female voices are well done. She speaks clearly and concisely.


There are no explicit sex scenes, excessive violence or swearing. There is nothing scary. It is appropriate for preteens.
