Story4.5 out of 5 stars 10,604
It’s a beautiful day in Newport, Rhode Island, when Phoebe Stone arrives at the grand Cornwall Inn wearing a green dress and gold heels, not a bag in sight, alone. She's immediately mistaken by everyone in the lobby for one of the wedding people, but she’s actually the only guest at the Cornwall who isn’t here for the big event. Phoebe is here because she’s dreamed of coming for years—she hoped to shuck oysters and take sunset sails with her husband, only now she’s here without him, at rock bottom, and determined to have one last decadent splurge on herself.

Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Lana Fleming’s sister has vanished from the set of TV’s hottest show, and no one seems to care. Desperate for answers, Lana sneaks in as an extra, only to get stranded with Griffin Hart, an A-list action star with a reputation for good abs and bad decisions. Though Griffin didn’t expect to be cast as a librarian’s sidekick in a real-life thriller, he’s weirdly into it—and into her. Even more unsettling—she sees right through his playboy persona. But their meet-cute soon turns deadly when they uncover a Hollywood scandal for the ages.

Reminded me of a book report
I have to say that based on the narrators voice, monotone reading, and her selections of detail, I thought that this was being read by a child or adolescent: I still don’t know if that is an accurate description or not. Fortunately, or perhaps unfortunately, I had already read the book and seen movie, which made it more noticeable to me, when some part of a scene, that I thought was important to the storyline, was left out.
This listened very much like a middle school book report, complete with a summary at the end. Only the reading didn’t have the flow of a story, and it all sounded very flat. I think this is an action packed and difficult book to summarize in such a short amount of time, even if the narrator were more engaged, However, the lack of organization of the story, by the narrator felt very confusing, and there was no way to differentiate between those dramatic chases, magical explosions, or just everyday interactions. For anyone who hadn’t seen the movie or read the book, I don’t think there was enough detail or excitement, to lure a listener into the magical world of Fantastic Beasts!
