I love to listen to audiobooks. It is great when the narrators get into the story and really bring the characters to life.

In Victorian England, vice of every kind can be purchased, and Matthew, the Earl of Wallingford, makes certain he avails himself of every possible pleasure. Bored and jaded, he is as well-known for his coldness as for his licentious affairs with beautiful women.

This book is erotic and heartbreaking. I wept at times for Matty, his pain was so deep. This is a great story of healing for those that suffered for a long time. I loved this book as well as all of Charlotte Featherstones books!

When Gabriel is confronted by the university administration, will he succumb to Dante’s fate? Or will he fight to keep Julia, his Beatrice, forever?

I think that there is no real comparison between 50 Shades and Gabriel. I loved 50 Shades and I really like Gabriel and Julian's Story as well. These books are not as intense as I thought they would be but still a really great story.

Story

I have read many bad reviews on this series. Could the story have been written better? Yes, but only in the very beginning. The story is a bit extreme at times, but you need to read all three books to get the total story. The author did a great job with this story, in my opinion. The narrator got better as the story progressed.

Deep in the stacks of Oxford's Bodleian Library, young scholar Diana Bishop unwittingly calls up a bewitched alchemical manuscript in the course of her research. Descended from an old and distinguished line of witches, Diana wants nothing to do with sorcery; so after a furtive glance and a few notes, she banishes the book to the stacks. But her discovery sets a fantastical underworld stirring, and a horde of daemons, witches, and vampires soon descends upon the library.

I loved this story, very interesting. I was wary to buy this audio because it is a little long, but I was so into the story I lost track of time. My only complaint is the abrupt ending. I hope the story will continue!

A smashing, award-winning debut novel that introduces Charley Davidson: part-time private investigator and full-time Grim Reaper Charley sees dead people. That’s right, she sees dead people. And it’s her job to convince them to “go into the light.” But when these very dead people have died under less than ideal circumstances (i.e. murder), sometimes they want Charley to bring the bad guys to justice.
