College already?

I was expecting something different than a sullen teenager story. Although I do love Liam, I hate the fact that he is now practically an adult and only one year has passed by since he was born. This story was too short with a story that could have had more substance to it. I realize Liam is special, but I think that Thea has missed some opportunities for more great stories because she had Liam grow up so fast. I only hope that the stink pot doesn't grow so fast. Same narrator as the rest of the series, I enjoy her.

Liam grows up

In the aftermath of tragedy, Liam has another massive growth spurt that takes him into young adulthood. This leaves him at a crossroads trying to figure out his next steps and find his place in the world. A conversation with a trusted friend brings direction, and a visit from a mysterious stranger brings love into Liam’s life. As always, Harrison’s writing is excellent.
Eastlake does a decent job of narration.
Recommend.

needs more

i hope this short bridges to a continuing novel of Liam and Rika in college.

loved it

love that Liam is coming into his own and appears to be cable to challenge his father, can't wait for the book when Liam becomes a man in body and mind. loved it....love this series

Wish growing up was that easy.

Would you consider the audio edition of Liam Takes Manhattan to be better than the print version?

I've given up reading books when I can listen to them instead. That way I can do two things at once.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Liam Takes Manhattan?

I think one of the most memorable moments was when Liam was all prepared for another fight with his dad and what he got was "all right" when Dragos heard the reasoning. Isn't that just typical between teens and their parents?

What about Sophie Eastlake’s performance did you like?

Sophie's one of the best I've ever heard. I think I like her range in voices and accents the best.

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

This book reminded me so much of so many moments in my own life that every stressful moment brought tears.

Any additional comments?

Can't wait to find out how Rika's going to play a part in Liam's life and what was that woman up to???

Just too Short

What made the experience of listening to Liam Takes Manhattan the most enjoyable?

I love Liam as a character and have enjoyed listening to all his stories, unfortunately this one just left the reader hanging.

What did you like best about this story?

I enjoyed seeing this character begin to grow into a young man.

What about Sophie Eastlake’s performance did you like?

Enjoyable listen.

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

Yes but it was to short.

Any additional comments?

This was just to short (less a novella and more a teaser). Honestly for a $4.86 price I would have liked to have more of a story. At the length this should have been a freebie or a $.99 buy.

leaves you wanting more.

little disappointed because going into liam's life could be interesting, but I understand there are a number of hardships in writing for deadlines and not as much for enjoyment

Fun short about Liam!

I've loved all of Thea's short stories. This was a nice fun one about Liam and a peek into his life.

Liam Takes Manhattan : Elder Races

I love these characters . I can't wait to see what happens to Liam at Glen haven College . Also I'm really excited about their next baby being born . I truly enjoy Thea Harrison's stories. I loved each and every character she presented with each story being exciting, adventurous and a page turning anticipation . I would recommend Thea to paranormal readers everywhere .

Wonderful and TOO SHORT!

Where does Liam Takes Manhattan rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

TOP.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Liam because he comes into his own and is not afraid of Dragos. NEED TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS TO HIM WHEN HE GOES TO COLLEGE!!

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I had a few: When Liam picked out his puppy and took it home, I was happy for him. When he stood up to Dragos and told him that he was going to "fill Constantine's position", I admired him for it because he knew what he wanted and he wasn't afraid to go for it. When he applied for college and was accepted, I mentally jumped for joy.

Any additional comments?

We really need to know more about Liam and Stink Pot. Please write more stories!!
