Done and dumb.I think it was less the story and more my irritation with the narrator that led me to dislike this book. Sorry, Flinn.Also, there comes a point when there are too many inspirations. This book drew on so many fairy tales that I stopped caring which was which, or which had been complet...

DID NOT FINISH - unrated because I only got a third of the way through the story Bored to tears, maybe I'll try to read it because even though the narrator's voice acting skill are quite good, I am not enjoying them.
I wasn't sure what to expect when I picked up this audiobook. I haven't read anything else by this author. I am so glad I did. This was such a cute story. Johnny, who thinks his life is going nowhere, gets sucked into an adventure of a lifetime. Not only does he learn that magic does exist, h...

I'm not, since I'm the one writing it and now I am about to finish it. ;)Cloaked is a mish-mash of ol...
Being the fan of fairy tales that I am, I had heard of Alex Flinn, of course. But for whatever reason, I had never read anything by her, so Cloaked is my first. And I have to start by saying: SHE USED THE ELVES AND THE SHOEMAKER!!!Let me set the scene for you:Misty, as a small child, had 3 books s...
I rarely ever quit a book in the middle, but I don't have the time to waste on something that holds no interest for me. The book was cute at first, but as it drew on, I realized how it should probably be classified as a childrens novel, not young adult. Definitely not my cup of tea.
