Publisher's summary

Protecting humans from dangerous magical creatures is all in a day's work for a faerie training to be a guardian. Seventeen-year-old Violet Fairdale knows this better than anyone - she's about to become the best guardian the Guild has seen in years. That is until a cute human boy who can somehow see through her faerie glamour follows her into the fae realm. Now she's broken Guild Law, a crime that could lead to her expulsion.

The last thing Vi wants to do is spend any more time with the boy who got her into this mess, but the Guild requires that she return Nate to his home and make him forget everything he's discovered of the fae realm. Easy, right? Not when you factor in evil faeries, long-lost family members, and inconvenient feelings of the romantic kind.

Vi is about to find herself tangled up in a dangerous plot - and it'll take all her training to get out of it alive.

Charming YA Fantasy

Would you listen to Creepy Hollow Series # 1 again? Why?

Yes! Although this book was slow to get going, in my opinion, the characters grew on me and I immediately liked Violet, the main character.

What other book might you compare Creepy Hollow Series # 1 to and why?

I was constantly reminded of Cassandra Clare's Mortal Instruments. The Guardians reminded me very much of the Shadow Hunters in Clare's novels. Morgan's Guardians train to protect humans from the more malicious beings from Faerie and they also use a variety of weapons and gadgets similar to those in the Mortal Instruments books.

Have you listened to any of Jorjeana Marie and Zach Villa ’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I have not. I thought they did a great job narrating!

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

Not in the very beginning, but the further I got into the book, the more I wanted to just sit and finish listening.

Any additional comments?

Great narration and an intriguing story that is just beginning. Looking forward to all that will unfold in the next books!

Enjoyed it!!!!!

Pleasantly surprised. Discovered that faerie reads can be nice. Generally I dont go for theme because they are too high fantasy for me, but this was a perfect balance. Vi, did some fast growing up. I felt bad for her and I got quiet at my desk when Ryn broke down and told how he felt . The battles and action seemed very crime show cop/detective inspired but i like that. Rachel did the best job descripting the Faerien world m which is normally my sticking point on these type of novels. She handled that task with flying colors. Great read and i will be picking up number 2 tomorrow .

Started slow but picked up speed.

This book started out fairly slow and I wasn't sure I wanted to continue but after a few hours the storyline really took off and I enjoyed the story itself. Its definitely more of a younger teen story and the characters felt pretty immature.

The story itself was good, full of twists and turns and I liked it enough to download book no. 2.

The narrators were very good.

Got it cheap, wish I hadn't

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

a believable character

What do you think your next listen will be?

Something that is not so incredibly Twilight-ish. Just as Spam is imitation ham... Some people might like Creepy Hollow, but I am not a believer.

Have you listened to any of Jorjeana Marie and Zach Villa ’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No, but this was professionally read.

If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Creepy Hollow Series # 1?

The scenes where the main character makes incredibly bad decisions - oh wait, that would be the entire book.

Any additional comments?

the 2nd book is much worse.

Pleasantly surprised!

I really enjoyed the story, although the accent of the lady reading kind of irritated me. By the end of the book I did get used to it. I look forward to the next in the series for sure.

interesting light read

Very YA with a lack of a complete character arc as if the series is the whole arc rather than each book having its own. Some good action and lots of tragedy to draw from just no follow through. Good narration.

Don't judge a book by its first 3 chapters

I thought I could predict exactly where this book was headed. I couldn't have been more wrong. Im happy I was wrong, but I almost gave up on the series. I really like violet the main character. Her story is worth reading. I find her to be interesting, strong and relatable. Its definitely written for a young audience but I still enjoyed it and got caught up in her story.

Be patient

Personally, the first books, a little cringe he. I had a feeling that, if I could muscle through the first book, they would get better, and I was right.

Did Performance is OK. I just feel that she sounds nasally like she has a cold.

It's okay

I went in thinking it was an enemies to lovers book, like Tiktok led me to believe, but it's not. I found it boring and forgettable. The characters didn't have much depth or description. Ryn is just mad over a miscommunication. I kept waiting for the "enemy" to appear, but no, just a hormonal teen who can't communicate nor reason. Violet makes all the bad decisions for no other reason than "ooh, he's hot." Nate is just... there. Nate was so boring I thought "surely this can't be the main love interest." I was just very underwhelmed.
