The "Short Synopsis" for the book is: In this inspiring and unconventional book of essays, Clint Edwards sheds light on the darker yet hilarious side of domestic life. Which sounds pretty good, and is what led to my checking this book out. In the same vein, my "Short Response" is: nope. The "Ful...

This is a brief little novella that runs a little over 2 hours on audio. It’s narrated by one of my favorite narrators, Joe Hempel, who helps the story leap off the pages. He also never grates on my last nerve like some narrators do. His pace is on the slower side and it draws you into the chilling ...

Max is a cat who lives with Odelia a reporter for the Gazette and he is always listening in on what is going on around town and reporting back to Odelia. Yes, Odelia can talk to her cats, somet...

I purposefully avoided this one because I assumed it would too be YA-ey for me. What a dumbass I am.

It was, in fact, quite excellent. 5 Stars and ...

A creepy and bloody haunted hotel story that is perfect for an October read (listen). Hey, it doesn’t have to be October, you can read or listen to it anytime.I have listened to several Joe Hempel audiobooks and have enjoyed them all. I like his voice and cadence and he always paces the stories well...

Note: While this is Book 3 in the series, it works mostly well on it’s own. Of course, the first two books were really good, so I highly recommend giving them a read. I thoroughly enjoyed the first two books in this series and that set the bar pretty high for this book. Jonathan and his crew (Kelly ...

Note: Even though this is Book 7 in the series, it works totally fine as a stand alone. Zack Berg is a gifted wonder boy and his parents Denise and Gabe are very proud of that fact. They do the best they can support their son in finding activities and a school curriculum that will challenge him. Zac...
