Gone by S.H. Love was a great book. I was hooked right from the start of this book because although this is a genre that I read and listen to all the time, this plot was different from anything else that I have read. I also really enjoyed the narrator’s voice, and I would love to listen to other books he reads in the future. I listened to this entire book in one sitting because I had to know what was going on and what was going to happen next. Just when I thought I had it all figured out, I would realize I was wrong and go back to trying to figure out what was happening. This book kept me on the edge of my seat as I was listening to it, and I loved that. I also didn’t see the ending coming, and it is always a good thing when I am reading books in this genre. This book was just long enough to keep me interested but not so long that you get bored of the story before the end. If you are looking for your next great read, I would pick up a copy of this audiobook.

A Cure For Deceit by Margie Miklas

August 14, 2021

FTC: I received a free copy of this book from Audiobookworm in exchange for my honest review. I received no other compensation and the opinions expressed in this review are one hundred percent true and my own.

A Cure For Deceit by Margie Miklas was a fantastic book. I enjoyed everything about this audiobook. I don’t know that I can even come up with anything bad because I loved this book that much. I also really enjoyed the narrator of this audiobook. I felt like her voice fit the characters in this book. I wouldn’t recommend this book to you if you get grossed out by medical things because this book is full of that. I loved that about this book because medical stuff has always interested me. This book combined the two things that I love in books a great medical story and suspense that kept me listening. I can’t wait to read other books by this author in the future because if her other books are anything like this one, I know I will love them. The author did a great job explaining things that were happening, but she didn’t include so many details that you get bogged down. The author also made the characters come to life as I was listening as well. This book made me wonder if things like this happen in the real world. I love when an author makes me stop and think about things that happen in the book and wonder if they have ever occurred in the real world. If you love a good medical thriller, then I am sure you will love this book.

Halfway Hunted by Terry Maggert

June 5, 2021

FTC: I received a free copy of this book from Audiobookworm in exchange for my honest review. I received no other compensation and the opinions expressed in this review are one hundred percent true and my own.

Halfway Hunted by Terry Maggert was a great book. This is the third book in the Halfway Witchy series, and I enjoyed it but not as much as the first two books. I can’t put my finger on why that is, but I would listen to it again, and I still want to listen to the other books in this series. I loved the narrator of this series. Her voice fits Carlie so much that if I listen to other stories that she reads, I would be confused because, in my head, she is Carlie. Carlie always leaves me smiling because so many things that she does are things that I would do or say. I enjoy the authors writing in this series. I did wish that there was more suspense in these books. I enjoyed this book because it isn’t super long, and I listened to it as I was working. If you are looking for something different to listen to this summer, I would recommend this entire series. I am so glad that I decided to review these three books because I would never have picked them up otherwise. If you want to see my reviews of the other two books you can click here and here to check them out.

Welcome to Halfway; where the waffles are golden, the moon is silver, and magic is just around every corner.

A century-old curse is broken, releasing Exit Wainwright, an innocent man trapped alone in time. Lost and in danger, he enlists Carlie, Gran, and their magic to find the warlock who sentenced him to a hundred years of darkness.

The hunter becomes the hunted when Carlie’s spells awaken a cold-blooded killer intent on adding another pelt to their gruesome collection: hers.

But the killer has never been to Halfway before, where there are three unbreakable rules:

Don’t complain about the diner’s waffles
Don’t break the laws of magic
Never threaten a witch on her home turf

Can Carlie solve an ancient crime, defeat a ruthless killer, and save the love of her life from a vampire’s curse without burning the waffles?

Come hunt with Carlie, and answer the call of the wild.

Halfway Bitten by Terry Maggert

May 29, 2021

FTC: I received a free copy of this book from Audiobookworm in exchange for my honest review. I received no other compensation and the opinions expressed in this review are one hundred percent true and my own.

Halfway Bitten by Terry Maggert was a fantastic book in this series. I loved that these books are just short enough to listen to them in a day or two while I am working but not so short that you miss out on the story. Once again, I loved that this narrator’s voice seems like she is Carlie. Her voice fits so well with the character that my mind almost thinks they are the same person. This genre of books isn’t one that I usually listen to, but after this series, I will change that for sure. Once again, I also enjoyed the author of this book, and I am super excited to listen to the next book because I want to know what crazy thing will happen next. I have also decided that I wished things like this happened because it would make things even more exciting and exciting. This is the second book in the series, and if for some reason you are only interested in one of the books, you can just listen to that one, but I would recommend the entire series because I have fallen in love.

Halfway Dead by Terry Maggert

FTC: I received a free copy of this book from Audiobookworm in exchange for my honest review. I received no other compensation and the opinions expressed in this review are one hundred percent true and my own.

Halfway Dead by Terry Maggert was a fantastic book. This is a genre that I usually read, but I enjoyed this book. This is the first book in the Halfway Witchy series, and I can’t wait to listen to the other two books in this series. I also loved the narrator of this book as well. I think her voice was a perfect match for Carlie. Because I don’t usually listen to books in this genre, I found that I was more interested because I had no idea where the story would go. I also really enjoyed this author’s writing. Once I am done with this series, I will probably pick up other books by this author. I loved that Carlie was a strong single woman because we need more characters like this. When you have a strong character like Carlie, it shows young women that you can do anything you want to do. I think that young adults would enjoy this book, and there isn’t anything in it that would be inappropriate for teenagers to listen to. If you are looking for something fun to listen to this summer, I would pick up a copy of this book and give it a listen.

When a blond stranger sits at the diner counter and asks her to lead him into the deepest shadows of the forest, her life will change forever. She must find a mythical grove of ancient trees, but there are ghosts in the forest, and one of them cries out to Carlie across the years: Come find me.

With the help of a rugged cop who really does want to save the world, she’ll fight to bring a ghost home, and deliver justice to a murderer who hides in the cool, mysterious green of a forest gone mad with magic.

Emergence by Shira Shiloah

May 10, 2021

FTC: I received a free copy of this book from Audiobookworm in exchange for my honest review. I received no other compensation and the opinions expressed in this review are one hundred percent true and my own.

Emergence by Shira Shiloah was a fascinating read. I loved that the things that happened in this book could happen. I am sure these exact things have happened. I loved that this book could have happened; it makes me want to read it even more. Also, I fell in love with the narrator of this book. She made all of the characters sound so different that I didn’t have an issue keeping the characters separate. This is the first time that I have listened to an audiobook where the narrator could make so many different voices with different accents. This is the first book I have read by this author, and I also fell in love with her. The author did an excellent job of making the book come to life as I was listening. I enjoyed the characters in this book because they were all so complex that they seemed real-life people. I didn’t find that this book was super suspenseful, but it did have enough that I kept listening. This book makes me not want to have surgery ever because you never know what the doctors do or don’t do when they are operating on you. I made love about this book because the medical parts of this book were true to what happens, and I loved that. Because the author is a doctor, she knows how everything works and that came through as I was reading the book. If you love medical thrillers with a small dose of romance thrown in, I would pick this one up and give it a listen.

About The Book

Author: Shira Shiloah

Narrator: Simone McIntyre

Length: 6 hours 12 minutes

Publisher: Shira Shiloah⎮2021

Genre: Medical Thriller

Release date: Mar. 12, 2021

A Scalpel Wielding Villain.

A Healthcare System that Fails.

A Whistleblower that Protects Her Patients – No Matter the Costs.

A trusted anesthesiologist, Dr. Roxanne Roth, is healing from the loss of her fiancé by consuming her time with work. It doesn’t hurt that her new love interest, Dr. Justin Kirkland, spends almost as much time at the hospital as she does.

Entranced in the throes and complications of new love, Roxanne looks forward to work every day. Her time at the hospital would almost be cathartic if not for Dr. D. K. Webb, a neurosurgeon, who is quickly amassing a pile of complaints – and bodies.

Despite trying to avoid Webb, Roxanne finds herself working alongside the doctor during a routine, low-risk surgery. Fueled by cocaine and ego, Webb intentionally sabotages the case, leading to the patient dying on the operating table.

Roxanne’s tenuous grip on recovery is shattered with her patient’s death, quickly replaced by anger and a drive for justice. Now Roxanne will do anything to protect her patients from the killer on the other side of the sterile surgical field – before he can silence her as well.

In this gripping, sinister medical thriller, Dr. Shira Shiloah will leave listeners wondering about the potential evil lurking behind every surgical mask.

About The Author

Dr. Shiloah received her medical degree from the University of Tennessee and completed her Anesthesiology residency at Northwestern University.

Shira lived in Brooklyn, Jerusalem, Chicago and Washington, D.C., before choosing Memphis as her hometown. She enjoys traveling the world with her husband and long walks with her rescue pup.
