    What made the experience of listening to Succubus Revealed the most enjoyable?

    The entire story line.


    Any additional comments?

    This was an excellent book, and kept you going. I didn't realize it was the last book till half way through and then I was really sad. It was good that it ended as it did, but I loved the characters so much, that it was like saying goodbye to dear friends who are gone forever.
    Of course I can re-listen to the books. But that is just not the same.

    Hot off the success of her best-selling Can You Keep a Secret?, Sophie Kinsella delivers another hilarious Becky Bloomwood novel. When last we left Becky Brandon (nee Bloomwood), she and Luke had just married and she'd unveiled her big honeymoon surprise...around-the-globe plane tickets. World-weary 10 months later, the newlyweds return home filled with excitement to share the details of their amazing escapades.

    Where does Shopaholic & Sister rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

    probably lower down the list. But still interesting


    Who was your favorite character and why?

    The sister.


    Any additional comments?

    I still love Becky. As silly as she is, she gets into the weirdest situations, yet can get out of them, and still come out ahead. Altho. you would think, some day will she learn???

    It was one of Eve Dallas’s earliest takedowns, back in her uniform days. A monster named Isaac McQueen had been abducting young victims and leaving them scarred in both mind and body. Thanks to Eve, he wound up where he belonged, removed from civilized society in Rikers. But he’s not behind bars anymore. After his escape, McQueen has two things in mind. One is to take up where he left off, preying on the young and innocent - when necessary, with the help of a female partner all too willing to be manipulated and to aid and abet his crimes.

    Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

    Yes. It is a book which makes you want to stay with the characters and not stop finding out what is going to happen next.


    What was one of the most memorable moments of New York to Dallas?

    Too many good parts.


    Which scene was your favorite?

    Again, too many...


    Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

    Yes, if I was able to.


    Any additional comments?

    I think the last scene was actually a weak one, but still very exciting. The whole book was an excellent story.

    A serial killer is on the loose, and it’s up to FBI agents Dillon Savich and Lacey Sherlock to bring him down. They soon discover the killer has blood ties to an infamous and now long-dead monster. Savich and Sherlock are joined by agents Lucy Carlyle and Cooper McKnight, and the chase is on. At the same time, Agent Lucy Carlyle learns from her dying father that her grandfather didn’t simply walk away from his family twenty-two years ago: he was, in fact, murdered by his wife, Lucy’s grandmother.

    Where does Split Second rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

    I have listened to this. It was really good.


    Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

    Yes...esp. since the book had 3 plots going at the same time. Somehow they all joined together, but was confusing at first.


    What about Renee Raudman and Paul Costanzo ’s performance did you like?

    I did like the performances...but I wish there was more difference in the sound of each of the characters. Many books that are put into audio truly distinguish the difference characters and it makes it easier to follow. These two performers did not do that.


    Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

    Sure, but who has the time.


    Any additional comments?

    I always like the FBI series. This one was not disappointing. It is odd to have Savich and Sherlock on the sidelines now. I liked it when they were the main characters involved in the books stories.

    It is a world where magic is forbidden – yet practiced in secret every day. But each small act of magic exacts a dreadful price – for it brings the bramble, which chokes farmland, destroys villages, and kills with its deadly thorns. In this world an alchemist believes he’s found a solution to the curse. But will the cure be worse than the disease? And a woman is forced to take up the mantle of her father, the Executioner. But it will not be the only death that she faces.

    Story

    I feel like the book was really interesting. But it is actually 2 separate stories. They are not very connected, although I thought the authors had actually collaborated on one book. Maybe they did, but it is a collaboration of two separate stories. Both are excellent, but I keep waiting for more. I would like more. By the end of each story, I felt like I wanted to hear more, learn more about what happens.
    I did not like the narrator on the second story. It was a little difficult to understand her accent. That is just me. Others may have no problems at all.

    On a quest to find her sister's killer, Mac is a major player in a deadly game, but with one great advantage: she knows how to find the Sinsar Dubh, an ancient book of magic so dark it corrupts anyone who touches it. What Mac soon discovers is worse than she had imagined. Surrounded by treachery, her enemies indistinguishable from her allies, she can be certain of only one thing: as All Hallows' Eve approaches, her time is running out.

    Story

    There are some books which are just not very good when they are in audiobook form. This is one of them. I really enjoyed the book when I read it, but I began by listening, and it was just wrong. I don't know why. I love my audiobooks, but not for this author or perhaps it is the narrator that makes a book fail as an book to listen to.
    Still, it is a good book, but one which, I feel, needs to be read.
