The Charmed Life of Alex Moore

By: Molly Flatt

Narrated by: Sophie Bleasdale

There are success stories - and there are true stories.

How would you feel if everything in your life suddenly started to go...right? Six months ago, Alex Moore was stuck in a dead-end job, feeling her potential quietly slip away. Then, seemingly overnight, she launched her dream start-up and became one of London's fastest rising tech stars. At 31, her life has just begun. But Alex's transformation isn't easy for those around her. Her friends are struggling to accept her rapid success, her parents worry she's burning out, and her fiancé is getting cold feet.

Then weird things start to happen. Muggings, stalkers - even a wild claim that she murdered a stranger. But when Alex visits the Orkney Islands to recharge, weird turns into WTF. Because there she discovers the world's oldest secret - and it's a secret that Alex's stratospheric rise has royally messed up.

Full of heart and humour, The Charmed Life of Alex Moore by Molly Flatt is a very modern adventure with a most unexpected twist.

Fun and surprising, great reading

The narrator was superb. The story was engaging and fun to listen to. I rooted for Alex. Could see this as a movie (and would like to watch it).

Wonderful narrator.

The narrator was excellent. I loved the way she did all the accents. However, the main character was so annoying, I struggled to finish. Alex had a vocabulary of mostly four words: "What?" "Sorry," "F**k," and Sh*t," and combinations of those four, over and over. She was snarky and full of herself. The story itself was original and would have been gripping with a different main character.
