Spells Trouble by P.C. Cast and Kristin Cast

Sisters of Salem book 1

Narrator - Cassandra Campbell 

Genre - YA/Fantasy

Rating - 5 out of 5 stars

Narration - 4 out of 5 stars


This was a great book! I loved it from beginning to end. I do have to let my readers know that if you are the type of person that doesn’t like unresolved issues at the end you should wait until the second book to read or listen to this book.


This book is about a set of witch twins coming into their full powers. Although something goes wrong and their mother is killed in the process. It is part romance, part mystery, and part witchcraft. There are a lot of twists and turns in the book and it keeps you on your toes. It has some funny parts too which also make it a good listen. Also some teen drama and a very explicit oral sex scene. 


I gave the narration 4 stars only on the fact that there were a couple of mispronounced words in it. Otherwise the narrator was good. She made the characters come alive and keeps the book going even if listening at a normal speed. I did not like that she didn’t really change her voice for different characters.


This was all in all a good book and would be good for 16 year olds or up. Including adults. I have just started reviewing YA books and I am finding them quite good.

Review of author Christine K. Fields

Genre Children’s Books I read three books by this author and all three were 5 star reads for children! I read Alphabet Stuff With Nuff, Saving Money Makes Cents,  Teamwork Makes Dream Work all by this author.  The Alphabet Stuff With Nuff book is a great way to get pre-K kids excited about learning letters and counting. It is all done in rhyme and had me laughing in parts. I would recommend the adult read through it a couple of times before reading it to their children. There are some wicked twisters in this one. The goal is to get your children to learn their alphabet and simple counting while you read the book. They have to count each time that letter comes and add them up. The answers of the number of letters in each rhyme are thankfully in the back of the book. The other two books I would say are more of kindergarten age book, One teaches about saving money and how fast it goes if you don’t pay attention. Something I have to say I have not learned at my age. This is perfec...

Windswept by Annabelle McCormack

Windswept Saga Book 1 Narrated by Elizabeth Grace Genre - Intrigue, Mystery, Romance Rating - 5 out of 5 Narration Rating - 5 out of 5 This book had me hooked from the beginning. It was so full of twist, turns, and mysterious circumstances that it just grabbed me in and I hated to stop listening even for bed. This book is sent in 1917 during WWI in Egypt. It has a lot of different characters but they are very easy to follow. It is about a woman thrown into a world of murder and mayhem in the war-ravaged Arabian desert where one wrong turn can get you killed. She has no clue who to trust and people keep showing up telling her that she can trust them but she has no idea which one is telling the truth. I have to give a shout-out to the narrator for keeping the book flowing and also her wide range of voices for each character. I think that is why while listening to this book I could keep each person separate.  I would highly recommend this book in audiobook format or book f...

A Cowboy Christmas Legend by Linda Broday

Genre - Christmas Fiction Rating - 5 out of 5 stars I picked out this book because of my ongoing obsession with cowboys. Plus I wanted to get into the Christmas spirit early this year. This book definitely didn’t disappoint.  This book is about a Texas Ranger running from grief and a women coming to grips with her own past. As they work together they end up bonding together to help rescue and take care of a Mother and her two children plus helping with a case for the Texas Rangers. The plot is a very stereotypical romance but it did not disappoint. With all the happy endings that we all look for at Christmas time. So if you are looking for a nice easy Christmas book to read I would definitely recommend this steamy Christmas read.
