About this listen

Fi has always known there's something not quite right about herself.

Not quite human.

For as long as she can remember, Fi has been sensitive to other people's emotions. So sensitive, she works a night job as a cleaner to avoid being overwhelmed by all of their feelings.

After a night on the town goes wrong, Fi comes to the attention of the Academy of Avalon. The obscenely beautiful jerk of a man who comes to collect her confirms her suspicions - Fi isn't human at all.

But all is not as it seems in Avalon. Magic is dying, those who have it are hunted, and at least one person really doesn't want Fi there.

Fi also has to figure out how to deal with the insane magnetic pull she feels to some of the most gorgeous and magically powerful males at the academy. What's a little boy-drama on top of an identity crisis?

Contains mature themes.

narration was just ok

I had a hard time with the female narrator. She had a slight lisp and it kept taking me out if the story. Like at one point I was wondering if she had ever received speech therapy, at another point I wondered if her particular accent was causing the lisp and so on ...

I loved the story and was glad to see it in audio

I loved hearing the voices of characters from one of my favorite books.
I'm looking forward to hearing the next book.

great premise for this story line.

the female narrator does take a minute to get used to but her and the male narrator do a good job of bringing the book to life. the story kinda hurries through the beginning and glosses over a couple of things but overall I like it and will listen to the next book.

Absorbing

I don't typically like YA fiction, but this was very well done. Detailed world building, decent character development, entertaining plot. I listened in one go. The narration was fabulous. I'm starting book 2 immediately.

Bad narrator choice

The story line and telling is somewhat childish.

The narrator has a lisp and it made it really hard to follow along or enjoy the story itself.
