The Write Hook

The My So-Called Mystical Midlife Series, Book 1

By: Robyn Peterman

Narrated by: Hollis McCarthy

Midlife is full of surprises. Not all of them are working for me.

At 42, I’ve had my share of ups and downs. Relatively normal, except when the definition of normal changes...drastically.

Four months of wallowing in embarrassed depression should be enough. I’m beginning to realize that no one is who they seem to be, and my life story might be spinning out of my control. It’s time to take a shower, put on a bra, and wear something other than sweatpants. Difficult, but doable.

With my friends - real and imaginary - by my side, I need to edit my life before the elusive darkness comes for all of us.

The plot is no longer fiction. It’s my reality, and I’m writing a happy-ever-after no matter what. I just have to find the write hook.

Zees another cliffhanger!

Not my usual reads but I did like it till I got to the end...A darn cliffhanger!
I did Like that crazy old aunt Flip, her friends they made me laugh out loud a lot and what about that cute little Cheeto.
Do hope Seth & Clementine get together.

Cliffhanger

Loved everything except the cliff hanger ending. Really wonderful characters, especially Clementine and her Aunt.

I was skeptical...

I had to get past the way the narrator sounded like she was from the 1930s or 40s. After awhile though it grew on me. A funny and interesting story that kept me listening, wanting to know what was going to happen next. By the end, I wished it wasn’t over. Now I can’t wait to listen to the next books in this series.

laugh out loud funny

The book has excellent narration with a funny intertaining story. the cliffhanger was totally unexpected.

Story good.. narrator for this book - could be better

Enjoyed the story.

Narrator was not the best choice for this story. (Just doesn’t work for this book - would be good with others)

I am intrigued to listen to future books in series, but will not if same narrator.
