Story
Rue and the crew of the Spotted Custard return from India with revelations that shake the foundations of England's scientific community. Queen Victoria is not amused, the vampires are tetchy, and something is wrong with the local werewolf pack. To top it all off, Rue's best friend, Primrose, keeps getting engaged to the most unacceptable military types. Rue has family problems as well. Her vampire father is angry, her werewolf father is crazy, and her obstreperous mother is both. Worst of all, Rue's beginning to suspect what they really are...is frightened.

Story
Ophelia Lambert, 400-year-old vampire princess and college freshman, suddenly finds herself domesticated by humans and forced to suffer the indignities of dorm rooms, communal bathrooms, and a roommate with sticky fingers. As one of the hundreds of undead venturing into postsecondary education, Ophelia has a lot more to learn that just "undead studies" - she has to learn to get along with her fellow vampire classmates and, worst of all, her human ones.

Can't wait for more on Ophelia's story. She deserves a lot more that a short novella.

MAYBE YOUR THE COCKROACH

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
Yes. I would and I have already.
What was one of the most memorable moments of The Girl at the End of the World?
When she was living at the observatory. It made me questions what I would do if I were in her position.
Which character – as performed by LC Kane – was your favorite?
Obviously Scarlett.
Did The Girl at the End of the World inspire you to do anything?
It made me think what would my plans be, if something similar happen.
Any additional comments?
At first I was not enjoying this novel. All the dying and nothing happening. Everything was happening in her head. But at soon as other survivors entered the picture, everything changed for me. I ended up liking the novel, and can even see myself listening to it again.

Bennett has returned to Chicago from France to take a vital role in his family’s massive media business.

Story
Meet Zoe and Greg Milton, a married couple who have let themselves go a bit. Zoe was a stunner in her college days, but the intervening decades have added five stone, and removed most of her self-esteem. Greg's rugby-playing days are well and truly behind him, thanks to countless pints of beer and chicken curry. When Elise, a radio DJ and Zoe's best friend, tells them about a new competition, it seems like the perfect opportunity to turn their lives around.

It's the kind of story that you know from the word go how is going to end. However, I found myself smilling and laughing like a maniac throughout the story.

Good aristocratic fun!!

Would you listen to Her Royal Spyness again? Why?
Yes. The narrator was amazing. I loved the story its very witty and you feel sot of bad for Georgie's situation.
What does Katherine Kellgren bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
She does different character voices so well, its hard to imagine them differently.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes it was. I found myself staying in the car a little bit longer so I could hear some more. Especially towards the end.
Any additional comments?
I recommended wholeheartedly, and would totally listen to it again. It was so much fun!!

Story
He was tall, at least six feet, with dirty blond hair that hung over his eyes. His T-shirt read Nietzsche Is My Homeboy. So, that was Matt. Who Julie Seagles likes. A lot. But there is also Finn. Who she flat out loves. Complicated? Awkward? Completely. But really, how was this freshly-minted Boston transplant and newbie college freshman supposed to know that she would end up living with the family of an old friend of her mother’s? This was all supposed to be temporary.

Flat-Out In Love!!!
Reviewed: 01-31-14
Would you consider the audio edition of Flat-Out Love to be better than the print version?
I haven't read the book, but the narration was perfect. It had me living every emotion.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Flat-Out Love?
I loved their banter, and quirky moments. Celeste's character was great. I loved the whole parachuting story.
Which character – as performed by Julia Whelan – was your favorite?
My favorite was Celeste.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
I did listen to it in one sitting, leaving my husband ignored. I just couldn't stop listening even though you kind of know what;s coming. It had me living the whole experience.
Any additional comments?
This book is all that and a bag of chips!!! Great lighthearted fun and romance. I usually don't go for the romance novels, unless there is some vampire and tough love involved, but this was a great change of pace. It was wonderful and would most definitely listen to it several more times.
