Wide Awake

The Goddess Chronicles, Book 1

By: KB Anne

Narrated by: Ashley Nicole Stevens

Where witches, werewolves, and magic aren’t just bedtime stories, they’re my story.

If I keep following the advice of Scott, my reputation for being a badass will be ruined. How dare he expect me to attend class when there’s all sorts of weird voodoo crap going on?

Gram tells me Druids live among us. They worship the forgotten Celtic gods that once ruled the Earth, and for centuries, they’ve practiced in Vernal Falls without incident.

I know nothing about Druids or Celtic gods. I only know the visions began when Breas, the new foreign exchange student, moved in next door. I also know my best friend, Lizzie, is obsessed with the spell book I found in Gram’s attic.

And someone is following me...which I find oddly comforting.

Breas provokes me - I mean really pisses me off. My friends protect me - but it’s mostly from myself. And a mysterious stranger wants me. I’m not sure what his intentions are, but I’m willing to take the risk.

Meanwhile, evil forces are at work, and I need to decide if I’m the one to save the world from them. Any guesses what I think?

The Goddess Chronicles are a fast-paced contemporary fantasy adventure with a kick-butt heroine, some hot, powerful heroes, and loads of magic just to make things more explosive. If you like Linsey Hall, M. Lynn, and BR Kingsolver, you will love the Goddess Chronicles.

Wonderfully fun!

This is a wonderful book to read and even more to listen to. Ms. Stevens does an awesome job of bringing the characters and story to life. Her accents for them are great!

Insipid YA

These are high schoolers who speak and act like junior high kids, except when they're doing drugs, alcohol and sex like crazy, amoral 20-somethings. The story line meandered all over place without going anywhere for the first 85% of the book. At long last it tries to get to the point but then ends with several characters and plot lines dangling. I received a free code for this audio-book and hate to leave negative reviews, but this is hard to recommend.

Wide Awake

What an amazing story. I loved every minute of it. I listened to the book rather than read and I did not want to stop for anything. The narration was spot on and I loved listening to her Gaelic accent. KB Anne is definitely a gifted author. I can’t wait to read or listen to the next book to see what happens next.

plot holes

there are too many plot holes some don't even seem important to the story it self, the story does pick up at the end but leaves too much up i the air that I really hopes gets answered in the next book.

A Troubled Girl & a Celtic God

This story is most definitely geared towards Young Adults, emphasis on Young!
This story deals with a Troubled Teen who is proud to be a problem child. The neighbor next door gets a exchange student from Ireland who can not seem to leave GiGi alone or keep his hands off her, which upsets her greatly. I personally did not care for this book and the Narrator has a irritating quality in this book doing the young People voices.
