Dream Stalker by Nancy Gardner

FTC: I received a free copy of this book from Partners In Crime Virtual Book Tours 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.

Dream Stalker by Nancy Gardner was a great story.  I enjoyed everything about this book.  This is something that I would usually listen to/read.  If I am being honest, the reason I picked up this book to read is because of the cover.  I found the cover super pretty, and I am glad that I loved the book because I would have been upset if I didn’t like the book.  I did listen to the audiobook version of this book, and I felt that the narrators voice matched the book. I wasn’t the biggest fan of her voice.  It wasn’t so bad that I had a hard time finishing the book, but her voice wasn’t my favorite.  She did do a great job of making the characters sound different.  This book did have a good amount of suspense in it.  I had enough that I listened to the whole entire story in one day.  I love when I found books that keep me that interested in what is happening.  I am hoping that there will be more books by this author in the future because I loved everything about this story, and I can’t wait to see what will happen next.

Lily Scott had vowed never to dream-walk-again….

Lily is a contemporary Salem witch who descends from a long line of witches born with the power to walk into other people’s dreams to fight crime. But her disastrous first dream-walk almost killed her, and she vowed never to repeat the painful experience.

Now her daughter is falsely accused of murder, and the only way to clear her would be for Lily to enter the dreaming mind of the real killer, risking confrontation with the deadly Dream Stalker.

Can Lily summon the courage?

Halfway Hunted 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 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.

Some prey bites back.

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:

  1. Don’t complain about the diner’s waffles
  2. Don’t break the laws of magic
  3. 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 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.

Come for the waffles. Stay for the magic.

Carlie McEwan loves many things. 

She loves being a witch. She loves her town of Halfway, and her Gran, and her familiar, Gus, who is 25 pounds of judgmental cat. Carlie spends her days cooking at the only real diner in town when she isn’t perfecting her family magic, and life is good. 

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.
