I have enjoyed every book I have read by Lily Morton and this one is no exception. It is just the right amounts of spooky and quirky and entertaining. Levi and Blue are great main characters and I loved their developing relationship. Joel Leslie’s narration made a good story even better.
Review from Miss Darby’s Duenna →
It is such a fun little story and well performed. It is a little short— not enough for a full days drive in the car. But…I can’t recommend a book where a sexual predator gets rewarded in the end. It is hard to call Mr Mannerly anything else. There is no time period in which..
it was written okay and I adore Joel Leslie, so I made it through to the end – but the author had a bad habit of switching scenes mid chapter and cutting away to a new scene right as the interesting things were about to happen. The love interests go drinking together – it happened..
Review from Origin →
I sometimes have a book on my shelf that is outside of my preferred genre that I have never had time to read. Joel Leslie (one of my most beloved narrators) finished his audio version of ORIGIN, which has been on my TBR list/shelf for a while now, and I just couldn’t wait any more…

Kinda cheesy, seemed immature or babyish. Hers Seemed like an 1800 accent,his seemed like a teenage clueless boy.

Jameson and Sedona’s story was a great ending to The Bailey series. There is a bonus scene if you also bought the e-book. I just wish we had gotten a little peak into Juno and Colton’s life in the future. They were basically left out of this story…but can’t really complain. Definitely recommend this book..
first there’s the author. funny, quirky, sweet stories with a great pace. then the narrator who breathes life into well written characters. there’s no way it could fail.
OK, the good news: Joel Froomkin is even better than his usual excellent performing Doug the pug. Doug is a wonderful character and Joel just makes him shine. Joel is always a brilliant narrator, possessed of every voice you can imagine – his women are particularly wonderful – and his characterizations of the side characters..
Review from Say Goodbye →
If I weren’t so invested in this story I would have been out after the first few chapters. Story was good narration was terrible.
Review from Attempted Vampirism: Publisher’s Pack →
It reads like a D&D campaign – half expected the epilogue to reveal a group of D&D players finishing up a session and making plans for the next session. It does get repetitive, I’m not a fan of some of the transitions, but overall I really enjoyed.
