The Unselected Journals of Emma M. Lion: Vol. 7

The Unselected Journals of Emma M. Lion, Book 7

De: Beth Brower

Narrado por: Genevieve Gaunt

"The image of Pandora's Box being opened by my own hand flashed across my mind. A sobering and somewhat disappointing realisation when one understands they are their own worst enemy."

The Year is 1884 and Emma M. Lion has, at long last, gained her majority. Entering a golden age of friendship with Pierce, Islington, and Hawkes, Emma is confident she will manage whatever comes her way. It is The Season she must help Arabella secure a husband, while navigating the threat of Aunt Eugenia, the unflagging adoration of Charles Goddard, and the amusing unpredictability of St. Crispian's. But the secrets of her trusted friends are what might very well bring about disaster.

Emma M. Lion offers up her Unselected Journals, however self-incriminating they may be. Armed with wit and a sideways amusement, Emma documents the curious realities of her life at Lapis Lazuli House.

Audiences have compared The Unselected Journals of Emma M. Lion to Jane Austen, P.G. Wodehouse, L. M. Montgomery, and Jean Webster.

Narrated by Genevieve Gaunt. A Londoner born and bred, she started her acting career playing Pansy Parkinson in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban before going on to read English at Cambridge where she graduated with a Double First.

Alongside acting on stage, screen, audiobooks and radio Genevieve writes for audiodrama (Thunderbirds), reviews books for The Spectator and interviews authors and creatives for literary festivals and in print for A Rabbit’s Foot magazine.

Directed by Tamsin Collison, an award-winning audio director with over 500 audiobooks and dramas to her credit, collaborating with artists from David Tennant to Archbishop Desmond Tutu.

Love love love

Amazing!!!!

Incredible book and narrator!!! Would highly recommend to anyone who wants a lovely enjoyable clean read

Much revealed, and still unspoken

I love the author’s writing style, where each day both reveals and unwinds the experiences of Emma Lion and her friends. Just as boundaries are declared, bridges are also built to be crossed, taking the listener into new, undiscovered territories.

So much fun!

I absolutely love these books! Beth Brower has such a gift for drawing you in, building tension in a slow burn kind of way, and leaving you feeling all the emotions! I simultaneously can't wait to find out how it all turns out and dread it ending!

Lovely

Lovely writing. Top three audiobook readers. I would listen to her read the phonebook if they still existed.

Heartbroken

Heartbroken to have reached the end of book 7. I found these so enchanting, I listened to them all in a row non stop for a week. Five days til the next release…

Lovely

I am thoroughly enjoying all of the Emma M. Lion series. Lovely stories and narration. Some of my new favorite books.

A cross between Austen and Gilmore Girls

Wonderful narration, delightful storyline. I didn’t know where the story would take me upon reading the first volume, but now I never want to leave St. Cristian’s!
