Publisher's summary

Just days after her mother's sudden death in a freak accident, Calla is sent to spend the rest of the summer with her grandmother in Lily Dale, a mysterious town of psychics where nothing is really as it seems. But to unlock the secrets behind her mother's death, Calla must first accept her newfound gift. The longer Calla stays, the stranger things become and as her own senses begin to awaken, she wonders if her mother's hidden past could explain her death. Calla must find out the truth, even if it means trusting the spirits she never knew she could see.

I love the characters!

I hope the characters show up in other lily dale novels. They are well developed and a joy to follow.

IT'S OKAY...

I probably will not finish the series. The narrator, Jessica Almasy is always wonderful. The story was just not something that enjoyed.

Listen to the sample first! I didn't.

Would you try another book from Wendy Corsi Staub and/or Jessica Almasy?

No

Would you ever listen to anything by Wendy Corsi Staub again?

No

How could the performance have been better?

Number one: a teenager from Miami should not sound like a valley girl from the eighties.

Any additional comments?

If I had listened to the sample I might have figured out this book is about a 17 year old. It is better suited for 13-14 year old girls. It is full of teenage angst...heart broken by first love (he broke up by text message), meeting a new boy but wait..my friend really likes him so I can't like him dilemma. And of course, the girl is supposed to be from Miami so I didn't expect a strong southern accent but, I didn't expect her to sound like a eighties valley girl. Seriously, if you are 13-15 years old you might like this book but to me it was a complete waste of a credit.
