Positively, Penelope

De: Pepper Basham

Narrado por: Christopher Ashman, Hazel Beattie, Julie Rogers

The world could do with a little more kindness and positivity and random acts of singing, don’t you think?

Dear Reader, My name is Penelope, and while I may not be a real-life princess, I’ve been told I possess a certain fairy-tale heroine quality. I wield optimism as my weapon of choice, don amazing shoes and vintage hats whenever possible, and speak in musical references. All of which perfectly qualifies me to succeed in my new role as a marketing intern at the historic Darling House theater on the island of Skymar.

Only . . . it seems this internship position is going to be a LOT bigger than I thought. The Gray family, who owns the theater, has been stuck in a rut of darkness ever since the loss of their matriarchs. Now all that’s left is a dying theater, a reclusive grandfather, three siblings, and an adorable seven-year-old girl who desperately needs some pixie-dust magic.

So that’s what this story is about. My plans to save the theater! (Plans that, somehow, keep being stolen by a local competitor.) And an anonymous online theater troupe. And two single brothers who may be vying for this American girl’s heart . . . until they’re not (or maybe they just want me for my ideas too). And a dream job offer that will require me to make a truly heart-wrenching decision. I may not excel at finishing stories, but I promise to see this one through to its happily ever after.

Positively,

Penelope

Movie Quotes

This book has a cute storyline and likable characters but I did not like the style of writing. Ninety percent of the story is written in past tense in the form of texts and emails. I did like all the references to movies and songs and the narrators did a great job.

Fun plot, great voices

Loved this second installment of this trilogy so much. The characters are so endearing and the plot is totally fun and satisfying. Can’t wait to listen to the next one.

Another perfectly lovely story

Grumpy/Sunshine with a unique twist! Loved this story of theater and musicals, fairies and princesses, grief and learning to love again. Second chances galore, too. Just listen! You’ll love it.

Another quirky, romantic and uplifting read from Pepper Basham!

Loveable, quirky characters and a truly wonderful, memorable story. I adored the theatre-based story with all its theatre references.

Once again the narration is amazing!

I grinned so much while reading this book. Look no farther for an uplifting and heartfelt read with a whole lot of personality. Highly recommend this book and Authentically Izzy!!

Delightful!

Loved it! Great narration and a fun story. terrific follow-up to Authentically, Izzy. Can't wait for Luke's story!

Such a fun listen!

Penelope is such a positive person, and even with mysterious happenings, she has a positive attitude. The book is written mostly in emails and texts, but there is also more narration and conversations in this one. I really enjoyed it. Romance, oh yes! Luke plays a big part too. His book is next.

Loved it!

This story was so funny, cute, and romantic. I
I am looking forward to Luke's book next.

So refreshing…

I loved everything about this audiobook! The story it self, the actors…I LOVE ALL OF IT!

Nice cute story

This story was cute and sweet but… it was way too long and could easily have been several hours shorter. Too much internal dialogue and repetitive thoughts. The child’s voice was especially irritating. Ended up skipping a lot during the last half.

PP!

This Story Was Absolutely Delightful! Can’t Wait, But I Must, For Luke’s Story!!! Love This Series!!!
