About this listen
What began as an innocuous advice column for Celeste Cleary has transformed into an all-consuming obsession, and her former existence as a scientist now feels like a distant memory.
As she immerses herself in the troubles of others-at times solving their dilemmas with messages from beyond the grave-an ability that has invaded her life since the hit-and-run accident that nearly killed her months before, Celeste grapples with the news that the accident may have been attempted murder.
One afternoon, a disturbing letter arrives at her advice column.A young woman haunted by the ghostly absence of her birth mother begs for help in tracing her mysterious past. Celeste steps into the labyrinth of secrets, unaware that she is traveling down a treacherous road that might lead her into the clutches of a remorseless killer.

A year ago, a hit-and-run nearly killed Celeste Cleary. Instead, it left her with a chilling gift: the ability to see the dead. She uses her new power to unravel the mysteries behind the missing and murdered. But now it's time for her to return home to West Virginia, where her own life began, and where her mother abandoned her family decades before. Celeste is about to confront her darkest fears. And some of them might lead her right to the truth about her own past—a truth buried deep, waiting to be unearthed.

Story
In Marley’s town, seniors are given a prank as a rite of passage…a dare, if you will. The dares start out simple…egging houses, balloons filled with glitter, chickens running loose in the halls. But this is no child’s play. Accepting a dare means you could be expelled, arrested, or worse. No one wants to back down from a dare. But saying yes has consequences, too…

Suspenseful Ending!!
I am obsessed with this series and knowing where Celeste's column is going to take us next! The suspense as this mystery unfolded was so good, and I loved the unpredictable ending. Terrific audio narration made each character stand out in this series!

Hooked from Page One!
After reading, Come Home Katie the first of this series I couldn't wait for a follow up. Holy haaaannnna, as always not disappointed! I've read all of the books by Erickson and can't wait for the next. The narrator does an amazing job, and complements the writing so well. The story in itself grips you and it's almost impossible to put the book down! Needless to say I finished this one in only one weekend.

Hit & Miss
The only reason I gave it a 4 star was because of the last hour of the book. With a killer on the loose, Owen has no problem with River wanting to take a drive all by herself. Knowing Tex is out there, she goes home and walks around the property. Really?

True evil may be closer than you think!
The Worst Kind, the second installment in J. R. Erickson's Dear Celeste series, is everything I hoped for and so much more! Through her advice column, Celeste is once again drawn into the life of one of her readers in her quest to hopefully bring some type of closure to the troubled woman. River is seeking answers to questions that plague her regarding her origins, but you know what they say--be careful what you wish for!
I am a huge fan of this author and her unassuming, understated writing style. She weaves a tale so flawlessly that you don't even realize how immersed you are until you are fully invested in the storyline. The characters are equally well written. I love how both River and Celeste are down-to-Earth, women you would be proud to call friends. Jonathan, Celeste's husband, is the kind of guy we all love to hate. Each of her characters helps to create the story depth that is a common theme in the author's writing style.
The audiobook is amazing! You truly become fully immersed while listening, to the point where nothing else matters except the story. The narration is spot-on and is narrated by humans, not AI which for me is a big bonus. It will definitely level you wanting more!
Overall, The Worst Kind is an amazing addition to the Dear Celeste series. I highly recommend it!

Great twist at the end
This second book in the series has a great new mystery for Celeste to figure out as it continues giving clues as to what happened to her. It grabs you right from the beginning! I love how the author gives such great detail and how the narrator brings the characters to life while you’re listening. This story had just the right amount of suspense. My mouth dropped at the end when I found out what happened to the main character, as well as the next clue in Celeste’s own mysterious circumstances!!!
I can’t wait for the next book!!!

Couldn’t stop listening!
After listening to Come Home, Katie I was eager for what would come next in the Dear Celeste series. The Worst Kind did not disappoint! It was gripping from the beginning and the narrator complemented the story so well. I always listen to audiobooks when I’m in the car, but I listened to The Worst Kind every moment I could, finishing the day after I began. Waiting anxiously for Dread The Night, but not sure I’ll be able to hold out for the audiobook.

A must read/listen
Wow- really enjoyed this book. Truly a thrilling, eerie, addictive listen. The description was so well thought out that through the entire thing I could actually picture this on the big screen. Didn’t want it to end!

Good story with twists - performance outstanding
The story and the performance was great. Some of the dialogues were a bit frustrating but perhaps that was by design.
