About this listen
I used to eat rocks as a child.
The family doctor diagnosed me with pica, dooming me to years of intensive therapy and extensive dentistry work. It wouldn’t be until much later that I would understand the all-consuming, insatiable craving that spurred me to eat a variety of rocks and minerals wasn’t a mental disorder, but an innate gift that allows me to extract the magic contained inside them: tourmaline for speed, celestite for strength, augite for a powerful laxative effect (that I had to discover the hard way).
Twenty years later, I’ve hidden my abilities beneath a white lab coat, working as a small-town pharmacist who creates proprietary “naturopathic” tonics that treat everything from memory loss to erectile dysfunction. Those tonics, in turn, fund my expensive lifestyle of solo flying around the world to search for more rocks. What more could an airplane-loving, mineral-munching, magical alchemist want?
Unfortunately, my arch nemesis, Heath Spencer, has recently taken it upon himself to single-handedly ruin my life. No longer content with annoying me from afar with his overpriced, tacky rock shop, Heath has decided to further antagonize me by dangling the opportunity of a lifetime right in front of my face: traveling to an ancient copper mine in China, which is home to some of the rarest and most stunning minerals on Earth.
It’s not until after I’m trapped halfway across the world with my least favorite person on the planet that I’m forced to come face-to-face with three terrible realizations: everything I thought I knew about Heath Spencer is wrong, some minerals were never meant to be ingested, and – worst of all – I’m not the only one who’s been keeping secrets...

In the heart of Adenashire, where elfish enchantments and dwarven delights rule, Arleta Starstone, a human confectionist works twice as hard perfecting her unique blend of baking and apothecary herbs. So when an orc neighbor secretly enters her creations into the prestigious Elven Baking Battle, Arleta faces a dilemma. Being magicless, her participation in the competition could draw more scowls than smiles. And if Arleta wants to prove her talent and establish her culinary reputation, this human will need more than just her pastry craft to sweeten the odds.

For four long years, he's lined his pockets, while I've taken all the risks. Now he's sending me after the magical artifact he's chased for years. This is my chance to escape. All I have to do is pull off the biggest heist I've ever attempted, escape the seethe of vampires I'm about to rob, and ditch the wolves who watch my every move.

In this world, where academic success could literally mean the difference between life and death, many students develop emotional baggage. Fortunately for Alexa, she does not suffer from the problems that plague most of her peers. Gifted with an intelligent mind to start, she realized early on that applying herself to both her academic and sports competitions was the number one way to succeed in this world. How can she do it? Shuffle studying, school work, and sports practice, all while being a teenager? The answer is simple: she has no emotions.

Hot flashes and serial killers and spirit guides, oh my! For Sarah Jane Prentice, 49-year-old police detective and witch, this has been the year from Hell. She's lost her husband of 25 years, but after a few months, everyone in her life is ready for her to move on and stop grieving. She's also been saddled with a horrific murder case she hasn't been able to solve. On top of everything else, every spell she casts these days seems to go wrong, and her quirky spirit guide is no help at all. Not good news for a witch who uses her magic to catch criminals.

People say I'm a weirdo. Sure, my idea of a party is a mini box of wine and hanging out with a feral raccoon, but it works for me. When I’m accused of murder, things get crazy. One, I learn that I have magic. Two, there’s a secret magical city hidden right in London itself. And three, my only hope is a vampire who’s sexy as sin and scary as the devil himself. He's called the Devil of Darkvale, and he all but owns Guild City. Some say I should just quit and turn myself in. Not a chance. I’m going to solve this murder myself.

The vampires want me to stay with them for one hundred years of indentured servitude but I have this thing about following orders so I ran from the streets of London to the wilds of Alaska. I have an eidetic memory and a can-do attitude. I can-do anything to get away from the vampire king. So when the Sheriff of Portlock, a hidden paranormal town, invites me to be his assistant, I say sure thing. It beats servitude hands down.

Story
They're marrying me off to a monster. I knew the day would come. I just didn't think it would be so soon. I'm betrothed. I'd always imagined my future husband would be some minor lord who'd value me only because I would bear him heirs. I never thought Father would go to the capital and seek an audience with Emperor Valdon Duthriss himself. What unholy deal did he make that I, a mere baron's daughter, ended up betrothed to that man?

Story
I have one task . . . to steal the dragon lord's magic. Simple. First problem: I'm inexperienced. Second problem: I have to sleep with him to get his abilities. (I probably should've led with that.) As the thrall of a vampire, I'm used to being subjected to another's will. So when they tell me to seek out the dragon lord, I do it to protect my sister's life. Except there are times when I think the savage is more of a danger than the master I left behind. It's not just his threats I fear, but his gentle touches and piercing glances.

War has engulfed Destia, reaching even the remote country-side, where foundling Eva Thirsk lives. When army recruiters come to town, Eva sees a chance to find a place where she truly belongs—something she’s never found on her adopted family’s farm. She enlists, hoping for adventure...and perhaps a chance to learn what happened to her parents. But when one of her missions goes disastrously wrong, a powerful enemy is accidentally freed. The Venistrare Warlock, sealed away eons ago to protect Destia, has been unleashed—and things begin to change for Eva.

That makes me the natural prey of the Soldiers of the Light, the jumped-up werewolves who police the magic community. They've hunted cartomancers for centuries because of some stupid ancient feud.

Some dream of prosperity, of living a calm and peaceful life. But not me. Having reached the pinnacles of success, I can't stop thinking about the past, about a time when any misstep could spell disaster, when I had to pay, work, and risk everything for even the slightest gain and each day was like walking a knife's edge. That's all in the past now. This peaceful, predictable, and privileged life isn't so bad. But it's boring!

When Malachi Baker stumbles into an offer of apprenticeship from the esteemed and powerful Occultist Orykson, he's left in shock and jumps at the chance to learn... Even if it means taking out a few loans. Unfortunately, his new teacher sees him more as a tool than a student. He has set Malachi near-impossible goals before he becomes worthy of Orykson's full attention, and Malachi's innate power is only somewhat above average. Worse, it turns out that Orykson has enemies more powerful than Malachi had ever imagined—and now their attention has landed solidly on him.

Scarlett Prynne is new in town, but that won't stop trouble from finding the young witch. It always does. Before her brother kicked her through a magical portal that eventually landed her in nowhere Tonopah, Nevada, he called her an agent of chaos. But let's be fair. Our Scarlett doesn't create problems. Her magic just attracts it in all shapes and furry sizes. Like her familiar, Runeclaw. The black cat's tongue is as sharp as his nails, and he has a snark that can cut through just about anything. This time though, trouble was already here.

I've returned to my hometown of Grimdale to cat-sit for my parents while I plan my next move. I'm looking forward to raiding their fridge, hanging out with their two kittens, and staying far, far away from anything supernatural. But I forgot that I'm never alone in Grimdale. The three ghosts I used to play with as a kid are back in my life again. Only now I'm their age, and they're infuriatingly attractive.

As a human, the fae see me as no better than something they scrape off their shoes. I'm good enough to wipe their butts and clean their sheets, but that's about it. So when I lose my job as a maid, I get the fun choice of either becoming a whore or starving to death—until a fae prince presents me with a plan involving a magical spell that will make the world believe I'm his mate. I don't trust the prince one bit, but left with no other choice, I agree. Only, the spell goes wrong and instead of matching with just him, I'm matched with all four of the fae princes.

I love it when a narrator captures exactly how a main character should sound. And this narrator ABSOLUTELY NAILS the voice and heart and soul of Delaney.

enjoyed such a different main character
It's great to read a book with an original idea. A neuro-spicy heroine is a refreshing change and the book was enjoyable to listen to. A few times the details got to me and what sometimes seemed like pushing the characters differences but with it being a first in a series there has to be a lot of world building. I'll definitely pick up future books.

Loved how 'real' this story felt
It's a new and unique magic system.
And the author sounded very knowledgeable about a wide range of topics.
I found the main character very interesting to read.

A fresh change on how magic happens
I normally don’t read or listen to a new series when there’s only 1 book out. But I’m glad I decided to this time and I can’t wait for the next! I really enjoy how the MC’s neuro-spicy mind works, I feel like I can relate in many ways. I also love the different take on how side acquires her ‘magic’ which she doesn’t believe could be magic of course. Eating rocks lol lol the author could’ve come up with so many different ways but I LOVE the connection of absorbing ‘rocks’ or minerals and gems to manifest powers.
My only complaint with the narrator is about the sections when she’s telling the narrative and not doing dialog. She is so monotone and speaks at like 2.5x speed. I find myself gasping for breath when she finally finishes what she’s saying. It’s like she challenges herself to not breathe and talk as fast as possible to get through a paragraph. I could understand the dialogue sections when Delaney is speaking in monotone to protect herself from feelings that she doesn’t understand. Maybe that’s just how this narrator speaks, I will have to remind myself to not hold my breath when she’s fast-talking through paragraphs and just breathe normally.
Other than that, you’ve got hunky hunky Heath and an adorable piggy named Topaz. What else could you possibly need?

I loved having a neurodivergent female lead character! I thought this novel was well planned, fun, and interesting. I also enjoyed the narration, which I listened to at 1.75 the regular speed.

Really enjoyed
This is my first adult audiobook. I honestly did think I would enjoy listening instead of reading but I loved it. The main character is blunt and coarse. At times she almost seems to be too much but the banter is wonderful and hilarious. Her emotional support pig made me want to get one. The premise is fascinating, the MFC has pica, she eats rocks, crystals, gems, etc and gains powers. She is also able to understand and extract to make healing potions. There definitely seems like more stories are coming and I look forward to it! You never really find out why or how the MFC has these powers. There is a slow burn romance with a sweet and patient MMC who you want to see win.

Fun! Sweet! And completely cozy!
OMG! I thought that reading an ecopy of Amethyst & Alchemy was absolutely fantastic! And now having experienced the audio version I have been completely floored once more. The narrator—Lia Langola—is the epitome of what I imagined Delaney Stone sounded like. Her execution of Delaney’s quarks and mannerisms where completely perfect! And she really did a phenomenal job bringing Delaney to life.
Delaney is such a unique, brilliant, and interesting character that I wholeheartedly fell in love with. Add in Heath, Li, and Topie and this book was completely captivating and wonderful. The story was completely cozy with enough tension and angst to keep you needing to know more, and the rivals to lovers romance was completely unique and fresh in its execution.
All in all, this is a completely wonderful story, filled with unique and fantastic characters, extremely interesting and intriguing magic, enough swoon and spice to set you on fire, and the cutest little piggy sidekick you could imagine!

amount of research
I liked the narrator she brought the characters to life. It was also nice to learn about minerals and some Chinese culture. Was intrigued by the concept of minerals having magical properties when ingested. Since this is is a review of the audio version forgive possible misspelling. Topie the emotional support pig was a great character. Also liked the faguts which I had never heard of before. Delaney's sense of humor works for me. While the romance wasn't fade to black it also wasn't super risque either at least not for me.
