Scumble

By: Ingrid Law

Narrated by: David Kremenitzer

Length: 7 hrs and 12 mins

Publisher's summary

Nine years after Mibs's Savvy journey, her cousin Ledge has just turned 13.... But Ledger Kale's savvy is a total dud - all he does is make little things fall apart. So his parents decide it's safe to head to Wyoming, where it's soon revealed that Ledge's savvy is much more powerful than anyone thought. Worse, his savvy disaster has an outside witness: Sarah Jane Cabot, reporter wannabe and daughter of the local banker.

Just like that, Ledge's beloved normal life is over. Now he has to keep Sarah from turning family secrets into headlines, stop her father from foreclosing on Uncle Autry's ranch, and scumble his savvy into control so that, someday, he can go home.

Starring a cast both fresh and familiar, Scumble brilliantly melds Ingrid Law's signature heart and humor with the legendary Wild West.

Listen to the first book, Savvy.

I love it

It is relatable and it is so good because you can not know what is going to happen next the first time

Ingrid Law makes the unbelievable feel real

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

Not quite the caliber of Hunger Games or Harry Potter, but enjoyable never the less. Safe for any reader. On par with books like the Redwall series or the Underland Chronicles (yet without the violence).

What did you like best about this story?

I like how important family is to the characters, and regardless of the amazing abilities they have, they seem to have to deal with the same sorts of things everyone else does.

Which scene was your favorite?

When they all came together in the end to defend the ranch.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

When the little girls offered the man trying to bulldoze their home all their "gold"

Any additional comments?

I think this book was about equal to its predecessor, "Savvy."

Terrific fantastic!

Would you listen to Scumble again? Why?

Great rendition of a fantastic story! The whole family loved it. Will look for more from this author

Good

Fun and excellently presented tale for tweens

What made the experience of listening to Scumble the most enjoyable?

My tween daughter loved it and I enjoyed it as well. Well performed and excellently written fun story that kids can relate to.

Good Story But Poor Narration

My daughter and I had already read the book and liked it, so I thought my younger son would enjoy listening to it (male protagonist, etc.). We're only about half-way through and at this point I'm just trying to grit my teeth and bear with it until the end. The narrator is completely off the mark in both capturing the tone of the characters and delivery, and I honestly can't wait for it to be over. A poor narrator can really ruin an audiobook experience, and unfortunately this book is the perfect example of that.

narrator not so good

I enjoyed reading Savvy and decided to listen to the audio version of Scumble. However, I just had to buy the print version of this book to complete it because I found the audio a bit difficult to listen to. I'm sure the narrator meant well, but the pitch and tone of his reading was not at all to my taste. It felt forced and overacted.
