A Christmas Secret

by Anne Perry
read by Terrence Hardiman

Blackstone Audio, 2006. 4 hours, 2 minutes.
Review written December 17, 2024, from a library eaudiobook

Years ago – It looks like it was in 2005 with A Christmas Guest, I discovered the fun of reading a cozy murder mystery for Christmas. It turns out there are now 21 in Anne Perry’s Christmas series of novellas, and this is the tenth one I’ve reviewed. I did some researching in Overdrive about the order and learned that this one is Number Four.

But – it’s not like the order matters within the Christmas series. Most of the novellas use characters from her other mysteries and give us a glimpse of how their lives turned out after the adventure that featured them, or in which they played a minor role. Sadly, usually this involves more murder! But they’re cozy murder mysteries – so there’s always a crime solved and lives taking a turn in a positive direction. And I truly enjoy the time with these characters – every time.

Every time I read one of these books, I resolve that I should read more of Anne Perry’s full-length mysteries. And you know what? With the help of Overdrive labeling the number of each book in each series, I just put two of her series openers on hold as audiobooks. So stay tuned, I may finally keep that resolution.

And that’s how I finally read A Christmas Secret. The last several years, I’ve fallen off reading the Christmas mysteries because I’m reading for the Cybils Awards or some other book award in December. But this year, I ran out of Cybils-nominated books in my category that the library has as eaudiobooks – so it dawned on me that I can catch up on some of the Anne Perry Christmas mysteries that I missed. A Christmas Secret is the first hold that came in, but you’ll be hearing about a few more.

I do feel like I need to let you know the characters, so if you have read Anne Perry’s other novels, you might recognize them. This one features Dominic and Clarice Corde, and it sounds like they met and fell in love when involved in a murder investigation. (This is a common situation in these books!) Dominic works as a curate in London, with an overbearing supervisor. So both of them are happy that he has gotten a chance to fill in as vicar in a small village while the regular vicar is on vacation. This is all happening in late nineteenth-century England, and all the expectations of a village vicar are resting on Dominic. He very much wants to prove himself and show that he’s worthy to be a vicar on his own.

But then Clarice discovers that the regular vicar didn’t go on vacation after all – when she finds his body in the cellar. So the rest of the book involves investigating why someone would have killed a man who seems to have been universally loved. But the vicar necessarily knows secrets, and yes, there are many secrets in the village.

The mystery part of this book seems more like stumbling on the answer rather than real detective work that the reader can follow along with – but it’s still a fun and cozy story, with a dash of danger at the end.

I also truly enjoyed the talk about Dominic’s Christmas sermon. He did want to prove himself, so it fits seamlessly into the story that we’re reminded that Christmas brings Hope to the world. This is a message I was happy to hear.

Like I always say, there’s nothing like a cozy murder mystery for Christmas!

Review of Spellbound, by F. T. Lukens

Spellbound

by F. T. Lukens
read by Kevin R. Free and Neo Cihi

Simon & Schuster Audio, 2023. 10 hours, 25 minutes.
Review written December 10, 2024, from a library eaudiobook.
Starred Review

I recently read my second F. T. Lukens book, Otherworldly. It was super fun, and reminded me of how much I enjoyed So This Is Ever After – so I realized I needed to listen to the book I’d missed (while on the Morris committee in 2023), Spellbound.

I was very glad I made up the oversight. And a hot tip is that these ones are all worth listening to. Kevin R. Free voices the main male lead in all three books, and he comes across beautifully as an adorkable, slightly goofy and outgoing character you want to hug and have as a best friend.

In this book, he reads Edison, a teen who’s been cut off from the world of magic since the death of his grandmother a year ago. So he goes to the office of Hexagon, where Antonia Hex works as a Cursebreaker, and begs for a job. Never mind that he doesn’t have any magic of his own. He misses his grandma and wants to be back in the magical community. Besides, he’s good at fixing electronic gadgets that always break around Antonia.

Edison has also been working on an app that will show him where the ley lines are – the lines that magic workers can naturally see and access. Since he can’t see them, maybe the app can make up the difference. What Edison doesn’t know is that according to the Consortium, that app is highly illegal. Also, after what happened with her last apprentice, Antonia is not allowed to take on a new apprentice. And it’s even more illegal to train someone who can’t see magic on their own.

But one thing leads to another. Antonia gives him a new name, Rook, and working in the office he meets another cursebreaker and his cute apprentice, Sun. Then later, when they’re supposed to be sorting cursed objects in a haunted house, Sun saves Rook from a Cursed Curtain that tries to kill him. Sun is prickly, but Rook thinks they’re awfully cute. Later, it turns out he can help Sun with their math homework – which brings the two of them even closer together.

But the more Rook learns about magic, the more illegal his existence becomes, and the greater the danger the Consortium will find out about his app. When he does get into trouble, both Cursebreakers and Sun are in trouble, too. Will Rook be able to do anything to save them all from the powerful magic wielders who are in charge?

This book ends up being a madcap adventure with a sweet romance thrown in. As with all of the F. T. Lukens characters I’ve heard read by Kevin Free, I found Rook lovable right from the start. Not that this is the same character! Both Rook and Sun are fleshed out with their own quirks and foibles, and here’s wishing them a long and happy career in the world of magic.

Review of The Lying Game, by Ruth Ware, read by Imogen Church

The Lying Game

by Ruth Ware
read by Imogen Church

Simon & Schuster Audio, 2017. 13 hours, 40 minutes.
Review written August 27, 2024, from a library eaudiobook.

I’m listening to too many Ruth Ware books too close together. I listened to my first one when I was on the Newbery committee reading only children’s books – and it was a perfect contrast. Now I confess I keep going because I’m a bit of a completist, and I know that I do enjoy her audiobooks. This one was still good, still got me listening avidly, full of tension – but I didn’t enjoy it quite as much as the others I’ve listened to.

The main obstacle? It’s hard for me to sympathize with liars. (Fictional liars cause so much trouble that could just be solved by telling the truth! Yes, this is a pet peeve.) Isa, the main character of this book, was part of a “lying game” with three other friends when she was away at boarding school. Kate was in charge of it, and awarded points if you fooled people, with different points for various levels of lying. But one of the big rules was that they didn’t lie to each other.

In the present, Isa gets a text from Kate, and she comes running – along with Thea and Fatima, back to Kate’s home on the coast next to the school. Isa brings her baby along, and lies to her partner and everybody else about why she’s visiting after fifteen years away. Supposedly, it’s to go to an alumni dinner at the school, but really it’s because the body the girls buried together has been found.

I always worry when the main character of a Ruth Ware book is in a happy relationship! Fortunately, Isa’s partner doesn’t die, but it’s definitely not smooth sailing. (See above about Lying.) And with Isa taking her baby everywhere, you’ve got to have great danger at the end of a thriller, and as feared, Isa’s baby is the one in danger.

But there’s twisty stuff going on finding out what happened fifteen years ago and who they can trust now and what part of the things even they thought about that body were truths and what part were lies. And can they keep the lies of the past from destroying their lives now?

Grief in the Fourth Dimension

by Jennifer Yu
read by Tim Lounibos and Raechel Wong

Tantor Media, 2024. 8 hours, 46 minutes.
Review written November 26, 2024, from a library eaudiobook.
Starred Review

Grief in the Fourth Dimension features two dead teens in a white room. Kenny Zhou died months ago when his heart gave out unexpectedly, and Caroline Davison died in a car accident on a rainy day when she was in a hurry and the road was wet – and she got hit by a drunk driver.

Kenny doesn’t know how long he’s been in the room, but it responds to his wishes and thoughts. Furniture has appeared to make him comfortable and there’s a big-screen TV on the wall that shows him his parents and friends mourning at his funeral. Occasionally notes fall from the ceiling, responding to his thoughts.

And then Caroline shows up. It takes her a bit to realize she’s dead. But she quickly goes about making the room more comfortable. Although they went to the same high school, they never talked to each other. Now the TV begins showing her family and friends, too.

Kenny’s parents are worried that business in their restaurant has slumped after their son’s death. Caroline’s mother is looking for justice for the person who hit her daughter. Kenny’s best friend Iris hatches a scheme to do a memorial and fundraiser for his parents’ restaurant, and Caroline’s boyfriend and brother start spending time with each other. And Caroline and Kenny prove to have some things to work through themselves.

But then the two begin to discover limited ways they can reach out, to let their family and friends know they are watching – but with mixed results. They want to help them heal and move on and be happy.

And then it becomes clear that their deaths are much more closely entwined than either one realized, and the stakes become much higher. Can Caroline and Kenny help their loved ones make things right?

I’ve got to give a disclaimer: I don’t believe for a second that the afterlife will be like this for anyone. But it turns out to be a really fun way to tell a story about grief and about how many people are affected by one life. I was completely pulled into this novel from the start and able to grasp more nuances of the situations involved by looking at them from the eyes of Kenny and Caroline.

Oh, and while Caroline does miss her boyfriend, it was oddly refreshing to read a YA novel where kissing isn’t mentioned even once, let alone a novel about recently dead teens whose biggest regret isn’t that they wanted more sex. (Yes, I’ve read more than one novel like that. Not this one!)

A book about death that ends up being about life and about relationships.

Review of Otherworldly, by F. T. Lukens

Otherworldly

by F. T. Lukens
read by Em Grosland, Kevin R. Free, and Natalie Naudus

Simon & Schuster Audio, 2024. 11 hours, 21 minutes.
Review written November 19, 2024, from a library eaudiobook.
Starred Review

This one charmed me. The prologue starts a bit creepily, with a witch making a bargain at a crossroads. She intends to bargain with a goddess, but instead three shades show up. The witch bargains away her soul in exchange for the secret of life – the ability to make a potion that will extend her life. When a magical familiar shows up to assist her, it’s not a cat or a bat, but a tall and handsome teenage boy.

Then chapter one of the book begins with Ellery, a teen who’s moved away from her family’s farm because after five years of winter, the farm is failing. Ellery’s impatient with her mother’s continued belief in the goddess, who clearly isn’t listening. Ellery is staying in the city with her cousin Charlie (a girl) and Charlie’s girlfriend Zada, and they’re working in the same diner as Charlie, running the dishwasher. As the book opens, Charlie alerts them that Hot Weird Guy is coming in – and we the readers recognize him as the familiar, Knox, picking up an order for the witch Arabella. Knox is friendly and open and waves at Ellery through the glass. He’s weird because he never wears clothes appropriate for the snowy weather, but he’s also definitely hot.

And then we switch to Knox’s perspective. The witch has a moment of triumph, realizing that Knox’s blood is exactly the ingredient her potion needs – and then the shades come and take her soul.

But Knox doesn’t want to go back to the Otherworld just yet, and he’s worried about how his queen (the goddess) hasn’t been answering his letters. Has she forgotten him? So he takes the potion and flees from the shades – and ends up running into Ellery in the dark behind the diner – and she ends up standing up to the shades, whom she thinks are people trying to kidnap him. Knox uses a last flash of magic and gets rid of them – for now.

Charlie and Zada are very kind people, so when Knox is obviously in trouble, they offer him a place to stay for a few days.

And that’s how Ellery gets embroiled in the otherworldly.

Knox has no magic without an active bargain, so Ellery and Knox make a bargain between themselves – Ellery will help him experience a list of fun things from the human world, and Knox will find out from supernatural sources why the winter has extended for five years.

Of course, that involves encountering more supernatural beings, which involves danger. And the having fun together indeed leads to falling in love – it’s beautiful to see.

But there are definite complications! If Knox goes back to the Otherworld, he will forget everything from the human world, because that’s his nature as a liminal being. And he will almost certainly be punished for running away from the shades. But Ellery’s not the kind of person who will let someone they love be unfairly punished.

I fell in love with the characters in this story, from Ellery the skeptic who’s still working hard to help their family, to sweet Knox, genuinely happy in human things, and to Charlie, who’s joyful chaos in human form. The story maybe sounds complicated when summarizing, but it all made sense as the book took you through it, with each complication leading to the next, and characters you wanted to keep spending time with.

Review of Same Time Next Summer, by Annabel Monaghan

Same Time Next Summer

by Annabel Monaghan
read by Brittany Pressley and Dan Bittner

Books on Tape, 2023. 6 hours, 57 minutes.
Review written September 3, 2024, from a library eaudiobook

When you’re listening to a romance novel, you shouldn’t complain if you know right away what’s going to happen, right? Especially since it was the author’s other book that made you notice the formula.

This book begins with Samantha going back to the beach where her family has spent summers for decades, along with Jack, her doctor fiance. Sam has resisted spending more than a few days there ever since she was seventeen, when Wyatt, her childhood friend and teen boyfriend (whose summer place was next door) left her and broke her heart. But now she’s over all that, engaged to be married, and her parents want her to consider getting married at the beach. Much to her surprise, Sam learns that Wyatt is back in the house next door, for the first time in years.

Okay, do you, like me, know what’s going to happen from that description? I did indulge in some fond hopes that this would be about Sam realizing what a great choice she made dating Jack, but I knew that wouldn’t happen as soon as they started in on a flashback from Wyatt’s perspective.

Like I said, the author’s earlier book, Nora Goes Off Script about a romance channel writer, made me extra aware of the formula, but I did groan a little when Sam (whose straitlaced job was in jeopardy) decided she wanted to be an art teacher for kids.

And there was one little detail that annoyed me. A high school student is not going to get a job at a library “teaching” kids, nor probably doing story times. Shelving books, maybe. Just saying.

But beyond all that? Yes, it’s a fun story. The characters are people you enjoy spending time with. Wyatt has some nice depth to him. And I have to say I did end up being surprised by what it was that broke up Sam and Wyatt when she was seventeen. It was not a letter one of them sent that never got received!

Though some day, I do want to read a romance novel about a heroine realizing she’s found someone much better for her than her first love. This isn’t that, but it’s a sweet romance that leaves you happy for the characters. It’s a feel-good story about finding the person who really gets you – and who can find fault with that?

Out of My Heart

Review written October 12, 2024, from a library eaudiobook.
Starred Review

I’ve long intended to read this sequel to the brilliant Out of My Mind, and finally placed a hold on the audiobook when I heard that a third book is out. Took me long enough! But I’m so glad I finally did listen to this story.

Once again, we’re spending time with Melody, a brilliant girl with cerebral palsy. In the first book, she learned to talk at last with the help of a machine, and instead of being in the class for kids with mental difficulties, got moved to the regular class and won a place on the quiz team. But that book had a sad thing happen at the end.

I’m happy to report that this book is only happy for Melody. She goes to camp! It’s a camp specifically for kids with special needs, and Melody gets to swim, paint, ride on a boat, swing on swings, ride a zipline, ride a horse, and even dance. She makes firm friendships with the three other girls in her cabin and even with a boy in another cabin.

Yes, there are adventures and small setbacks, but this is a happy book, all about Melody getting to do lots of things for the very first time that many would say are a normal part of childhood. It made me happy to read it and also wonder about how many experiences like that are available to kids like Melody. It’s a lovely story, well-told.

Review of The Spellshop, by Sarah Beth Durst

The Spellshop

by Sarah Beth Durst
read by Caitlin Davies

Macmillan Audio, 2024. 12 hours, 12 minutes.
Review written September 27, 2024, from a library eaudiobook.
Starred Review

The Spellshop is a novel for adults that reads like a sweet middle grade story (and I mean that in all the best ways). Yes, our main character is an adult, who’s been working for many years at the Great Library of Alyssium, but years of staying away from other people, happy with her books and with the sentient plant who serves as her assistant, has left Kiela good-hearted and somewhat naive.

As the book opens, the great capital city has been through a revolution – and a mob has started burning the library. Fortunately, Kiela had prepared by packing up some of the most important spell books in crates on a library boat, so she is able to escape with the books and with her plant assistant Kaz. She heads to one of the outer islands, to the cottage where she was born, but which her parents left when she was a child.

In the Empire, it was illegal for someone not a sorcerer to cast spells, but Kiela’s not entirely sure who’s in charge now, and there’s a need for magic on the island, as the imperial sorcerers have been neglecting it for years. And she has those spell books….

It begins as she tries to figure out how to make a living and casts a spell that makes raspberry bushes grow. She has her family recipe book for jam, and she decides to open a jam shop – and sell some “remedies” on the side. Maybe she can help the islanders with the plants that are failing and the springs that have dried up. Maybe she can help her handsome and helpful neighbor Loren with his mer-horses.

It all seems to be going well until a terrible magical storm hits the island and Loren rescues a woman whose ship is destroyed in the storm. She says she’s an imperial inspector. How will Kiela hide her magic?

This is a feel-good magic story. Yes, there’s romance, but the only physical affection is kissing. Yes, there’s real danger, but everyone is revealed to have a good heart. (Well, except one guy, and he’s dealt with in a gentle way.) It’s a story about Kiela finding a place and a home and making friends and helping those friends, and I just know they’re all going to live happily ever after, and I so enjoyed spending time with them.

This is a perfect dose of charm if you have had enough of sex, darkness, and death with your fantasy. Don’t get me wrong – I enjoy that, too! But this was a sweet change and a well-written story that leaves you feeling happy.

The Lost Dreamer

by Lizz Huerta
read by Elisa Melendez and Inés del Castillo

Macmillan Audio, 2022. 10 hours, 52 minutes.
Review written November 5, 2022, from a library eaudiobook

The Lost Dreamer says on Amazon that it’s book one of a duology, so fair warning that there’s not much resolution at the end of this book — it feels like half of a story.

But what we do have is full of rich world-building. Chapters alternate between two different teenage girls. Both of them are dreamers — at night, they experience “The Dream,” a world inhabited by spirits, where they learn truths about the waking world. When someone dies, they say they “returned to the Dream.”

Indir, the first featured character, is part of a family of Dreamers, and she serves at the Temple of Night in the capital city. But after she dreams to answer a question for the king on his deathbed, her ability to enter the Dream disappears. Is she still a Dreamer? And then when the new king brings fire warriors to the city and seems hostile to Dreamers, they all fear that he’s ushering in chaos.

Our alternating featured character is Saya. Nobody knows she’s a dreamer, because her mother won’t allow her to tell anyone. In fact, her mother uses Saya’s gift to act as a seer in the villages where they travel. But Saya begins to want to come into her own.

Both of the girls’ stories increase in danger. The way they come together toward the end of the book surprised me.

The Dream is fantastical, and both characters spend plenty of time there. The author does a good job conveying how the Dream and the world about it works. As well as making us worry about what’s coming to that world.

Review of Sunrise Nights, by Jeff Zentner and Brittany Cavallaro

Sunrise Nights

by Jeff Zentner and Brittany Cavallaro
read by Alexandra Hunter and Michael Crouch

Quill Tree Books, 2024. 7 hours, 28 minutes.
Review written October 30, 2024, from a library eaudiobook.
Starred Review

Sunrise Nights is a sweet young adult romance described by the publisher as a “novel in verse and dialogue.” Since I was listening to it, I didn’t realize the verse was there until I got to a few spots that were artistically poetry. Most of the book read as the girl and the boy describing their night.

And the book takes place during three all-night parties at the end of a summer camp for the arts. Florence is there for dance, and Jude is there for photography. They don’t meet until the last night – Sunrise Night – of their first year in the program. They go out on the town, and they hit it off in ways that are delightful to witness. Then they make a pact not to contact each other until the next Sunrise Night the following year.

Their first night together, Jude has a girlfriend. So that keeps them both from acknowledging their attraction. The second Sunrise Night, Florence has a boyfriend. But, well, the discussion between the two of them makes her rethink that.

And still, despite Jude saying he’s not going to let a simple misunderstanding make this like a teen rom com, they still don’t talk about their attraction until the third Sunrise Night.

I like that Florence and Jude are nuanced characters. Florence is losing her ability to dance because she has a deteriorating eye condition that destroys her balance. Jude is the first person besides her parents that she’s talked with about it. Jude has OCD that is undiagnosed until he takes Florence’s suggestion to see a therapist. He only knows the first year that his thoughts spiral. He’s also hurting because his parents recently split up, and he’s afraid that he drives away love.

It all adds up to a sweet story of two teens who are open with one another and find a listening ear when they need it most. But then they go a year between these times of connection. Which builds exactly the right amount of romantic tension.
