Resumen del Editor

"One thing I've learned about running a shelter for paranormal creatures, you can't afford to let your guard down. It all started when I welcomed an enchanting new guest to my plantation. Strange things started to happen. Well, more strange than usual. I was caught off guard by some conflicting feelings, and it spurred me on to get Brad, the love of my life, committed. To moving in with me, that is. In any case, I was willing to do whatever it took: love spells, black magic, and something so naughty I'd rather not mention it here. Nothing worked out quite the way I planned, and I ended up having to go to hell and back just to save my own self! If it wasn't for Marie Laveau and the rest of my friends, I wouldn't be able to share this tale with you in my memoir."

Hilarious read

I couldn't stop listening to it. I was hooked from the first sentence on! I don't know if it was the accent of the reader, or the story, the characters, or just everything flowed just perfectly. I laughed throughout this story and can't wait to listen to the rest of the series.

Entertaining!

I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this hilarious paranormal suspense story. Gertie naivety was truly trying…and it got her into so much trouble. You just have to shake your head and wonder how anyone could be so clueless. I enjoyed listening to the narrator bring this story to life. She did a great job. I am looking forward to listening to the next book in this hilarious series.

Might not want to listen to while driving

Funny read

Funny paranormal comedy and I loved the narrator accent. I will check out the next in series

Fun & Fluffy Magical Hijinks

Gertie is a witch out of time. After being "frozen" for 100 years for bad behavior, she's now out and about as the most out-of-date, naive, bubbling but hilarious protagonist you'll ever find in the South (or anywhere else!). The entire book is fluff and fun so look out for some funny bad guys who are almost as clueless as our heroes. Thanks to Audiobooks Unleashed for the listen!

Can't wait to read this again.

Where does Gertie's Paranormal Plantation: A Paranormal Romantic Comedy rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

It is hilarious and one of the best I have read in this genre.

What did you like best about this story?

I loved how candid the dialog was without worrying about censorship.

What about Hollie Jackson’s performance did you like?

The narration is excellent. When I first started I wasn't sure I could follow the dialog with the very heavy accent. But once I got used to it I thoroughly loved Gertie's accent. I especially liked how well Hollie Jackson timed all the emotions and humor just right. It made me fall in love with all of the characters.

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

Be prepared to literally laugh out loud.

Any additional comments?

I wasn't sure about getting this book until I read the reviews. They convinced me and their reviews were spot on. It was a delightful book and I loved that it was short but also wanted to read more, if that makes sense. I love this book but realize that it isn't for everyone because of how open the dialog was and the descriptions of everything in an interesting way and very descriptive....those made me laugh a lot. It isn't a good book for readers who are prudish for sure. I worry that is some of those write a review it will scare others away from a delightful book.

did not think i was going to like it but

the sex scenes to long wish cut it down a bit funny full of puns light easy fast great for a laugh when is the next one coming out

I had to turn it off so I could quit cry laughing!

I'm not sure I would recommend driving while listening to this book. I was laughing so hard tears were clouding up my vision. I had to turn the book off so I could regain control of myself. I had to do that 3, yes 3 times during the book. You know it is coming but the way it is written you'll still laugh your a** off. The banana scene is just one example. It was just what I needed to get me out of my funk I was in at that time. Loved it!!!
