Loved the story, the way it progressed and how it ended. Brooks was perfect for Liz and how she had realizations about herself and life along the way. Loved Burt!!!
Would like to have seen Liz's mother make an appearance or Johns family be in the courtroom as well. The narrator did an amazing job. I will definitely be listening to other books done by her.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
yes if they enjoy a great action packed edge of your seat romantic story
What was one of the most memorable moments of The Indigo Spell?
Sidney and Adrian, the chemestry these two exhibit in this book is astounding and I couldn't have been happier.
What about Emily Shaffer’s performance did you like?
Everything. You can always tell the difference of who is speaking, male or female. the different, tones, inflections and accents she gives each character is perfect. I love the voice she gave Adrian. I will happily listen to books read by Emily Shaffer as her performance is always spot on and a narrator can make or break an audiobook, Emily shaffer makes it.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
Adventures, mysterious and action packed
Any additional comments?
I love the Bloodlines Series and can't wait for the next book to come out!

The book started off good in book 1 and downhill after that. I couldn't stand Ever by the last book. How many times can she shrug, roll her eyes or nibble her lip? I'm glad the series is finished. Katie Schorr did a great job as the narrator.

Reviewed: 10-15-11
Character development, magic, action, comedy, drama, romance--these elements have been what keeps the storyline going and makes it so special for fans of this series. Harrison hits all of that in her writing. She addresses several particular issues when it comes to Rachel's relationships, as well as the relationships between the people around her. While I've been a card-carrying Trent and Rachel supporter since Book 1, there's attention given to her relationships with him, Pierce, Ivy, and Al too. Like any fan, of course I have certain hopes.
I really enjoyed this book and can't wait for the next one out. As usual Marguerite Gavin is a wonderful Narrator.

I was very excited to find that in River Marked we get to see a more romantic side of Mercy as she and Adam take their relationship to a whole new level. While River Marked is a bit different from the previous books in that there is more romance which I loved. There is still gritty violence and some intense action and Mercy is still the star of the show. This series continues to be a favorite and Lorelei King an amazing narrator.

disappointing
Reviewed: 10-15-11
This book felt tired to me. Loved the original trilogy--Clary comes across powerful, even in her most insecure moments. In this latest installment she is pathetic. Her and Jace's actions are reduced to mad making out and Clary chasing, while Jace evades her...and really, that's it until the big somewhat climactic ending. I was sort of disappointed in this book.

Blood Wyne has to be the best Menolly book so far in this series. I enjoyed getting a deeper look into her personality beyond her being brutalized & turned. There is quite a bit of character growth in this book for her- and the rest of the extended "family", I am still enjoying the books with the middle sister being my favorite.

Reviewed: 01-30-11
Harvest Hunting continues Delilahs Story. I enjoyed Delilah's POV ..The plots are weaved together creating a series of events that keeps the pace flowing really well. Delilah as we know is a werecat shifter that is usually very emotional and gets overwhelmed very quickly, Well she totally comes out of her shell in Harvest Hunting. Not only is there tons of action there is tons of change. Delilah finally starts training to be a death maiden and she also gets a great look into her destiny with the Death Maidens and the Autumn lord and comes to terms with it. In the previous book, after a huge battle with their enemies, the girls had to give Chase, Delilah's human love interest, the Nectar of Life to save his life. Unfortunately, it also made him not-so-human, adding hundreds of years to his lifespan and sparking his latent psychic powers. He's not dealing so well with the sudden changes and breaks it off with Delilah. I was sad Chase and Delilah broke up, but by the end of the book it was put to rights. Shade, a shadow dragon, comes to be Delilah's new love interest, sent by the Autumn Lord. I loved Shade and can't wait to find out more about him. I have enjoyed reading all the stories of the D'Artigo sisters and am looking forward to what comes next.
