    Would you listen to The Indigo Spell again? Why?

    I have listened to it more than once and got my husband listening to Bloodlines because he became curious why I am re-listening to this book.


    What was one of the most memorable moments of The Indigo Spell?

    Are you kidding me? The Dream scene. You know the one I am talking about if you have listened to the book...


    Have you listened to any of Emily Shaffer’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

    She has been great in the series.


    If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

    Any additional comments?

    This book has been made even better by the narrator. I am truly impressed.

    Evie's paranormal past keeps coming back to haunt her. A new director at the International Paranormal Containment Agency wants to drag her back to headquarters. The Dark Faerie Queen is torturing humans in her poisonous realm. And supernatural creatures keep insisting that Evie is the only one who can save them from a mysterious, perilous fate. The clock is ticking on the entire paranormal world. And its fate rests solely in Evie's hands. So much for normal.

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

    I enjoyed the series because it introduced some paranormal creatures that I had never heard about and a new perspective in the ones we are so used to, however I must say that I thought it would never end. It was dragging a bit. I wish we had learned more about the Queens but it was ok.

    Tough, brainy alchemist Sydney Sage and doe-eyed Moroi princess Jill Dragomir are in hiding at a human boarding school in the sunny, glamorous world of Palm Springs, California. The students - children of the wealthy and powerful - carry on with their lives in blissful ignorance, while Sydney, Jill, Eddie, and Adrian must do everything in their power to keep their secret safe. But with forbidden romances, unexpected spirit bonds, and the threat of Strigoi moving ever closer, hiding the truth is harder than anyone thought.

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

    This book was wonderful and my husband was a bit jealous of Adrian.


    What did you like best about this story?

    It has mystery, drama and lots of swooning moments.


    What does Emily Shaffer bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

    I hadn't been this pleased with a narrator ever since the Harry Potter series.

    Would you consider the audio edition of City of Lost Souls to be better than the print version?

    Well, the complete series is wonderful. I love that even when you are chewing your nails about the latest event, Simon can make you laugh out loud in the very next scene. Great Job Cassie.Molly dear, I love you in Castle but if you are going to continue to read these books, you need to learn how to pronounce the words correctly or the fans are going to cry.


    What about Molly C. Quinn’s performance did you like?

    Not much
