Publisher's summary

What if wishes really did come true? What if you were a little girl who wanted nothing more than an imaginary friend with whom you could share all of your secrets? What if, when you grew up and moved away, your imaginary friend didn’t?

After inheriting a 400-year-old family estate from her aunt, Patrice Lafleur returns to her childhood home on the outskirts of Shreveport, Louisiana, to find that not much has changed. Of course, still waters run deep, and the long-forgotten memories lurking beneath the surface of Patrice’s childhood are there to greet her when she walks through the front door 20 years later.

The Journal is a story of magic and mystery, good versus evil, long-overdue redemption, unconditional love, and unspeakable horror. While some memories are best left forgotten, how can they be when the house itself remembers?

As Patrice’s memories come flooding back to her, she realizes that sometimes, things are different than they seem. Other times, they are exactly what they appear to be...evil.

Magic, Good and Evil

The author really did his due diligence when writing this book it is steeped in interesting and factual historical and mythical knowledge. I am definitely very impressed because it really brought the story to life and made it believable. Patrice had a hard life growing up and if it had not had been for her aunt who knows where she would have ended up. Her aunt had a duty and now that duty has been passed on to Patrice and with the help of her friends nothing is impossible or unimaginable. This story offers suspense, drama, paranormal deities, and a side of romance just to spice things up a little. I loved it all and became truly invested and entertained in the book. I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves books about the paranormal, mythology and magic. I received this book for free upon my request. I am voluntarily leaving my honest and unbiased review here of my own volition.

The Journal

This was good. I think it moved too fast for the story to be great. Narration by Ashley Gatti was good. I was not convinced by Liams accent. I was given this book free for an honest review.

Superb!

This amazing story is both historically and mystically accurate and compelling, yet while listening to Ashley Gatti's amazing narration, all one can say is SUPERB! Another excellent novel by Riano D. McFarland that I highly recommend.
