Dear Diary,

Tomorrow is the big day! Life is thrilling! All of my dreams are coming true… except the one where I ride off into the sunset with Prince Charming on a snowy white steed and inherit an adorable brownstone on the Upper East Side with a doorman named Jeeves. Well, one can’t have everything, can they?

Fingers are crossed—all of them—that my first big fashion show goes off without a hitch. Never in my wildest wizard dreams did I imagine that my designs would be headlining New York Fashion Week. As long as the models show up and my darling undead assistant, Helen, doesn’t cry happy tears of blood all over the frocks, I’m confident my caftans will be a huge success.

Who knew shapeless bodywear could be the next big thing? Me, that’s who! And I’m manifesting my dreams into reality.

Anyhoo, wish me luck, Dear Diary, and thanks as always for lending an ear… or a page, to be more accurate.

xoxo Johnson Jones

Cute novella

I enjoyed listening to this quick novella. The characters are great, the storyline was fun, and the narrator did a wonderful job.

Fun story

This series was super fun. I appreciate that it had a little epilogue book at the end.

Dry Fun

I loved the fun, humorous conversation and takes on life. The energy was great as well.

sweet read

such a sweet tale!! all the angst and loving friends and the steadfast love interest.

Painful

I don’t usually write reviews but this one became painful to listen too. I don’t believe it was the narrator I believe it was the book. It’s short and I only made it half way through. Just couldn’t do anymore. I usually like this author’s work but no idea what this was.

Ugh.

I have enjoyed the quirky characters in this series. Sadly, this story seemed to be limited to trotting out stereotype descriptions. I was hoping for some character development and all I got was shrieking dialog. This could have been great fun, using the long history and lifetimes of the supernatural and how they were adjusting to modern life. RuPaul's Drag Race has more character development than this story.

Boring

I really tried to get into this story, but gave up after three attempts. It was crass and boring with a narcissistic main character.

Bad book

I loved Robyn Peterman and this series but nothing in this book had anything to do with the series. Returned the book after 1.5 hrs of listening. It was torture.

OK… Where do I start?

First, let me say that I am a big fan of Robyn Peterman‘s books. I’ve listened to more than 13 books and will listen to more. David Brenin Provided a great reading. I love his voice and character interpretations. I struggled somewhat connecting with the storyline. Any other time I would struggle with spending a credit for three hours when I could get great readings for 2 to 4 time the length for the same amount. BUT!!!! As I said I normally love Robyn Peterman’s books. I am disappointed because I I’m not a fan of this one and consider it a miss. I don’t like writing these types of reviews because I know people have taken their time and creativity to produced those books

Terrible whats the point

This is terrible and I can't seem to find the point of the story. I have enjoyed the previous books but not this one. Audible won't let me return either.
