I received this book for free. I am voluntarily posting this review and all opinions expressed herein are my own.
I was pulled into this book from the very beginning. It is a well-written and imaginative book. I found the teenage characters to be very likeable and they behaved like teenagers. I absolutely loved the powers they had – and how they went about using them.
The narrator, Sarah Sampino, did a great job as narrator.
What would you do if the boy from your dreams is actually real and you just haven’t met him yet? Suzana finds this out in this roller coaster of a book. I loved seeing her abilities become stronger and the side romance was a plus too.
This is a YA paranormal story. The author did a great job leading the reader into the characters lives and showing little by little their powers. Not a clear explanation of why they have the powers but it’s just a brief thought. There comes along an antagonist that does a great job of scaring everyone. I liked the story and the narrator was fantastic. I received this audiobook by my request in exchange for an honest review from Audiobook Boom.
Ok I was seriously pulled into this story. I was on the edge of my seat waiting and wondering what was going to happen next. Or why was this happening. I Loved every second of this story. From Susannah and her friend To Duncan and his mom. It was all good!
This isn’t my first book by this author. I feel she does a great job building her characters and her stories. They always seem to intrigue me and keep my interest. I did listen to this on audio. Sarah Sampino did a wonderful job and had me chuckling a couple times.
Audiobook review: Strange Magic is a teen story involving interesting characters, a strong attraction, and psychic abilities. The angst is intriguing. The story is interesting and entertaining. The narrator did a good job! I received a free copy of this audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.
Great Story & Audible Listen Fascinating & Enjoyable!
Strange Magic
By: Suzana Thompson
Narrated by: Sarah Sampino
I thoroughly enjoy this book, it is well written with interesting storylines that are both fascinating and captivating from start to end. Suzana Thompson is a gifted author with a creative and imaginative mind. The characters and storylines she created are realistic with a touch of supernatural and made it seem not so unusual, that there is magic inside everyone. Susannah was your ordinary HS girl, then she has a dream of a nice looking guy who turns out to be a new student in her school. She also finds she can communicate with him telepathically. She does not understand what is happening. Duncan, the new guy in school, is not very nice to her, thinks she is playing him.. When he finally realizes she is telling the truth he tries to help her understand. Then his past comes back to haunt him, his ex-girlfriend Anna, she is the reason why he moved from his old home. Anna is manipulative and not nice at all and she comes into town with a purpose. She fools everyone at first but when she reveals what she is after her true colors show. I loved how everything played out, how Susannah’s powers started to surface and strengthen. Knowing how evil Anna could be Duncan tried to protect Susannah by pushing her away, but she did not give up on him. Then Susannah, her best friend Caitlin & boyfriend Alex, Duncan and his Mom teamed up and come up with a plan to stop Anna from creating havoc. I loved the ending, kind of reminded me how love and goodness prevails. This is an enjoyable and entertaining story, it contains plenty of drama, angst, twists and turns as well as a sweet YA romance. Suzanna Thompson, thank you for the is great story and emotional rollercoaster ride.
I listened to the Audible edition, Sarah Sampino is a wonderful narrator and voice performer. She brings these characters to life, gives each their own voice and personality. She does an amazing job projecting the emotions of the characters as well as the drama of the story into her performance. She is an entertaining storyteller and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for another great listen
