Story
Isabel Gibson has all but perfected the art of forgetting. She’s a New Yorker now, with nothing left to tie her to Brinkley’s Island, Maine. Her parents are gone, the family bookstore is all but bankrupt, and her sister, Sophie, will probably never speak to her again. But when a mysterious letter arrives in her mailbox, Isabel feels herself drawn to the past. After years of fighting for her independence, she dreads the thought of going back to the island.

Story
In this haunting short story of loyalty and betrayal, a young woman in early 1900s Massachusetts discovers that in navigating her treacherous coming-of-age, she must find her voice first. For fatefully observant Adeline, growing up carries an ominous warning from her adulterous mother: don’t say a word. Adeline vows to never speak again. But that’s not her only secret. After her mother takes a housekeeping job at a lighthouse off the tip of Cape Ann, a local woman vanishes. The key to the mystery lies with Adeline, the silent witness.

The Brindles are busy humans, apart from twelve-year-old Ernest, who would rather be left alone with his collection of Oxford English Dictionaries.

He gets a rare glimpse of action from Ernest’s mom, Beatrice—his used-to-be frequent visitor—only for her to drop him off at Heartland Pawn Shop and leave him behind.

England, 1881. Hereford Cathedral stands sentinel over the city, keeping its secrets, holding long forgotten souls in its stony embrace. Hecate Cavendish speeds through the cobbled streets on her bicycle, skirts hitched daringly high, heading for her new life as Assistant Librarian. But this is no ordinary collection of books. The cathedral houses an ancient chained library, wisdom guarded for centuries, mysteries and stories locked onto its worn, humble shelves. The most prized artifact, however, is the medieval world map which hangs next to Hecate’s desk.

In this case it’s the small community of Sawmill, Texas, where Libby’s taken a temporary job putting an antique store in order. Her new boss, Benny Taylor, a handsome charmer with a three-legged dog named Elvis, isn’t a bad change of scenery, either. Across the street Benny’s surrogate grandmothers—the widows Minilee and Opal—are ready with homemade corn bread, sweet tea, and an invitation for Libby to join their book club.

Publisher's summary
In this star-crossed short story from New York Times bestselling author Alice Hoffman, timing is everything as two sisters learn to let love follow its own path.
Isabel, the long-lost Gibson sister, is finally back home on Brinkley’s Island, Maine. With Sophie and Violet, her sister and her niece, she’s got the family bookstore—and with Johnny Lenox, she’s got something even more special.
But even as life settles, not everything is falling into place. Isabel and Johnny have set the date three times, baked three wedding cakes, invited the whole island to three parties, only to have each attempt at matrimony fall apart at the last minute. Disasters seem to be conspiring against their happy ending, and Isabel is starting to wonder if their love is meant to be.
When family history comes back to haunt the Gibson sisters, Isabel knows that if she wants to make it down the aisle with Johnny, first she and Sophie will have to face the pain of their past and their present, and decide what it means for their future.

Story
The modern audience hasn't had a chance to truly appreciate the unknowing dread that readers would have felt when reading Bram Stoker's original 1897 manuscript. Most modern productions employ campiness or sound effects to try to bring back that gothic tension, but we've tried something different. By returning to Stoker's original storytelling structure - a series of letters and journal entries voiced by Jonathan Harker, Dr. Van Helsing, and other characters - with an all-star cast of narrators, we've sought to recapture its originally intended horror and power.

Story
Narrator Dan Stevens ( Downton Abbey) presents an uncanny performance of Mary Shelley's timeless gothic novel, an epic battle between man and monster at its greatest literary pitch. In trying to create life, the young student Victor Frankenstein unleashes forces beyond his control, setting into motion a long and tragic chain of events that brings Victor to the very brink of madness. How he tries to destroy his creation, as it destroys everything Victor loves, is a powerful story of love, friendship, scientific hubris, and horror.

Fantastic
This was a great and short listen. I wish it went a little bit longer though. But overall it was such a joy to get into the lives of these characters again. The story is just so wonderful. I was getting a little but nervous though for a hot minute. But everything worked out well. I hope the next book is about Violet though, she added a lot to the first book. But I get it, this one was more about the sisters and the never ending wedding dates. Ha ha if you read or listened to this then you know what I mean. I laughed a lot during this listen and I also was like I said getting nervous a bit.
Looking forward to the next adventure with these group of characters.
Also forgot to mention I loved how Emily Dickinson was mentioned in this book.

Not as good as the first…
I really loved the first story, The Bookstore Sisters, and was so disappointed that this one was flawed by the inclusion of so many corny recipe names (there were at least 12, plus some repeated). It annoyed me, because it was so over-the-top.
I must say that I went back and listened to the first story before I could let myself listen to this one in its entirety. As I listened to the second story, I realized that I would have enjoyed it much more without all of those “Marry Me, Marry Me” wedding cake and “Make the Most of Life” pink lemonade cake references. For me, it was just too much. It seemed like the author was mentioning some sort of baked good with every other sentence. And I do realize that the baking recipes from their mother were a huge unifying factor in the stories. Just distracting to me and marred my enjoyment.

Just as charming as the first!
This has been a beautiful series and I love the way it ended. I saw many reviews despising the frequency of cute baked good names mentioned. I had no issues though, and thought it was tastefully done. The story was cute and left me feeling warm and fuzzy at the end. Not only did I enjoy this author, but I thoroughly enjoyed the voice actress. I plan to explore more titles from both.
